His job involves promoting a company’s products or services among followers in order to influence them to become customers. Most of the time they use channels such as Facebook, Instagram, personal blog or Youtube channel. Influencers build the credibility of followers by testing products and creating reviews for them.

 

I’m big, can I be an influencer?

In order to be considered an information benchmark by companies and for them to choose you over the hundreds of influencers that exist on the market, you must meet some relevant criteria:

  1. Be at least a micro-influencer: that is, have a minimum number of 1,000 followers on Facebook or Instagram. Owning a blog or Youtube channel is an advantage.
  2. Have an increased activity on social networks: it is important to constantly communicate with your audience so that they do not go elsewhere, where they can get more information.
  3. Stand out for the quality and relevance of the content you share with your followers. Say your opinion and offer arguments. Be unique, help both followers and potential partners choose you.
  4. Identify with the company’s products or services. You can’t promote a product you don’t believe in or don’t want to try. Be honest with yourself. This is the only way you will get your audience to believe in you and the products you promote.

I can do it!

Before you embark on this journey, don’t forget that a company has high expectations of what you do. Among the most important are:

  • Offering high visibility online: tell on your personal account about the promoted brand, guide your audience to visit its social media pages and even give them a vote of confidence (like).
  • Conversions, conversions, and conversions: after all, that’s one of the main goals, right? For followers to purchase the products and services you promote.
  • Gaining a new audience. If the company has so far addressed a certain target audience and wants to broaden its target, this is your chance. If you believe in the products you promote, convince other people to try them.
