A Smart Social Media Strategy
As buyers grow more skeptical of sales messaging and social media ads get more expensive, savvy retailers are embracing an affordable, surer path to consumer trust: influencer marketing.
Creators and influencers are viewed as relatable and aspirational. They are closer to customers than almost anyone, say Deloitte researchers, enabling brands to move, sway and sell at the speed of culture.
And companies are sponsoring influencers for a fraction of what they are paying for ads. Great deal? Let’s discuss.
How effective is influencer marketing, really? What are the risks, and how can retailers reduce them and boost their chances of success? We answer those questions in this resource, arming you with what you need to know to kickstart an influencer marketing experiment — your first steps toward a profitable program.

Similarly, as the industry matures, it will continue to become easier for brands to get the most out of these important relationships. For example, Afluencer offers both free and premium plans for brands to get started, and provides tools to guide brands in their approach, regardless of budget. As with other marketing channels, what it all comes down to is determining a brand’s campaign goals and choosing the right path -- and the right people -- to make it happen.
How will influencer marketing continue to shift? In an industry that is notoriously difficult to predict (who would have thought a man skateboarding while drinking Ocean Spray would be the pandemic’s viral hit?), here are a few areas brands should pay attention to in the year ahead.

Process change is both difficult and inevitable but it can also be positive and profitable. At the same time, change for ‘no good reason’ is generally negative and expensive. Deciding that a change would be beneficial should be done during a full functional evaluation.
The following ‘Time studies’ are great examples of objectively evaluating software to ‘simplify’ standard procedures in the manufacturing of machined wood components.
These studies show the importance of reviewing processes before and after the ‘intended change’ to ensure process changes are truly beneficial and don’t just ‘move’ the load and costs from one area to another.
