We have previously published articles on influencer marketing and success rates. Especially the performance of micro and nano influencers has been noticed by almost all companies. Thus, the place of influencers in marketing budgets is growing and growing. But there is one more area where influencers should be included: the creative process of advertising!
In conventional influencer marketing, companies’ marketing departments and agencies come together and prepare the ad brief. This brief is then sent to the influencer who is deemed suitable. The reason behind influencers only taking part in the advertisement is obvious: Companies do not trust the influencer’s performance in the creative process.
However, this fact should not be forgotten: Influencers have actually been in the advertising business for years, so they have knowledge of the industry. In addition, they are the ones who know their followers the best. In other words, the more involved the selected influencer is in the creation of the ad campaign, the more interactive ads can be created.
There is also a known fact that new generations do not look at “advertising” very positively. So the less your influencer collaboration looks like an advertisement, the more successful it will be. Of course, if we also consider advertising campaigns with multiple influencers, each influencer’s “own interpretation” of the ad will make these collaborations much more organic.
In fact, we can talk about a dilemma like this: Expanding the space you give to the influencer can reduce your control over the ad or leave your ad’s ability to drive sales in the background. For this reason, it seems advantageous to limit the space given to the influencer. However, in the opposite case, the influencer can make your advertisement in the same language as how he communicates with his followers, that is, since he does not read the line you give, he may say to his followers, “Look, ‘I’ recommend this”; at the same time, the fact that the sales referral element of your campaign remains in the background can increase the efficiency of the advertisement.
There is also the influencer perspective. A study shows that 77% of influencers are willing to work with brands more than once when they are given creative space. In other words, for a long-term campaign, it is actually beneficial for everyone to give space to the influencer.
Influencer marketing is now one of the most effective ways to be on all kinds of social media, which all brands talk about and allocate most of their budgets. No matter which sector you are in, it is now possible to find a suitable influencer for your brand.
If you know the importance and some details of influencer marketing, but don’t know how to adapt it to your brand, leave the creative process to us. We will select the most suitable influencer for you and give him/her the most suitable creative space for the advertising campaign!
