What: From Advertising to Advocacy: Why Influencer Marketing
Matters
Bloggers and social media content creators are the new
influencers and often have larger and more trusted
audiences than traditional media. Influencer marketing
partners brands with social influencers to create and
distribute relevant content that is targeted toward an
audience that cares and is shared in a way that is
authentic and transparent. It involves less shouting and
more listening. It means less advertising noise and more
quality conversations about things that matter. When
brands partner with supporters and influencers who are
closer to their target audience than they are, it is a
huge step toward building consumer trust and being part of
the social conversations consumers are having long before
they ever buy a product. Attendees will learn best
practices for creating powerful influencer marketing
programs that help their brands shift from ineffective
advertising to earned advocacy.
