The audience of your influencer should be the target audience for your product.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are different ways in which influencer marketing can work. The major ones being:<\/span><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The influencers can write about you on their websites.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">They can post about you on social media platforms.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">They can let you contribute as guest authors.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Before you approach an influencer it is important that you are able to identify one successfully. You are looking for a kind of a person whose audience will be interested in what your <a href=\"http:\/\/thejigsawseo.in\/blog\/best-strategy-for-turning-website-visitors-into-leads\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>website<\/strong><\/a> or your product offers.<\/p>\n<p>Here are a few points that you should keep in mind before going about choosing your influencer:<\/p>\n<h5><b>Will your influencer fit your brand?<\/b><\/h5>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before any marketing decisions are made or before you even go about checking the quantitative aspects like follower counts of your potential influencers, you should be clear about what the brand wants its <a href=\"http:\/\/thejigsawseo.in\/blog\/why-brands-will-go-to-extremes-with-digital-video-in-2018\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>brand<\/strong><\/a> story to be like.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>If you get an influencer who reflects your brand well then your audience will be able to relate to it well. Consider the example of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/sabyasachiofficial\/?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>Sabyasachi<\/strong><\/a>. Sabyasachi had Sonam Kapoor as one of the influencers during her wedding season. She was the best-fit considering she was herself a bride to be. Similarly, if you have a sports brand then getting a sportsperson is more influential than getting an actor.<\/p>\n<h5><b>Do they have the numbers?<\/b><\/h5>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once you have made a list of all the probable influencers it&#8217;s time to look at the numbers they have to offer. This will mean it\u2019s important to check if they have enough followers and if the followers are of the kind that you want.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>You can also get an idea about their engagement rates by dividing their total number of followers by an average number of likes per post. The sample number of posts could be anywhere between four to six. People with a huge number of followers usually have a smaller engagement rate as compared with the ones with a smaller following.<\/p>\n<p>For the ones with a huge following 2-3% of engagement should be more than enough and for the ones with a smaller following, the rate is around 8%.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Instagram has been a boon for all the online shop owners who have been able to use the platform to boost their online sales.
