Simone Anderson & Social Media Marketing

How should eCommerce merchants utilise Social Media Influencer Marketing?

For a lot of merchants selling online, getting your product noticed by the right audience can be a challenge. With so many avenues to advertise and often a strict budget, how do you choose where to spend it?

In the last 5 years, the world of ‘Social Media Influencers’ and Influencer Marketing has grown unbelievably fast. I mean, who would have thought that someone could be paid over $1M just to post a photo to social media?

It’s no secret that when done right, working with an influencer to promote your product works. So, as an eCommerce merchant, how exactly do you go about contacting a content creator, what should you look for and what are your obligations? It can be a tricky business so we knew we had to bring in someone who knows the social media game like no other.
