Use this comprehensive guide to find influencers to market your startup, gain 200,000 followers, and win loyal customers
If you're thinking of using influencers to market your startup, there are several factors to consider.
First, brands need to think about both their reach and target customers. Influencer content has to reflect your brand image, values, and speak to customers in a way that will resonate with them.
Then, it's important to find the influencers who best align with your brand image and story. Celebrities and macro-influencers aren't always the most effective for every company's goals. Influencers with small, but devoted, followings can make a bigger impact for startups.
