As social media grows, so does the impact of influencer marketing. It became especially evident in early 2020 as people began to spend more time online due to the pandemic. However, despite the restrictions coming to an end, social media presence and online audience size have not decreased.
Robert Palmatier, a professor at the University of Washington School of Business, believes that influencer marketing has the highest ROI of any other form of promotion.

Micro-influencers:- why you
should work with them
should work with them
If you are promoting a small brand/startup, or just want to raise brand awareness among your target audience, then definitely look into micro-influencers. Here are a few reasons.
High ER and niche audiences. Despite having small audiences, micro-influencers can bring significant value to brands due to greater engagement. Oftentimes, micro-influencers create content for niche audiences, or simply get to know their audience in detail and create more “personal” relationships. Their ER can be up to 60% and conversions up to 20% higher than macro influencers’.
ROI. The cost of working with micro-influencers is significantly lower, which, combined with high engagement and a niche audience, gives excellent ROI.
The number of influencers and creatives. Low cost makes it possible to work with several micro-influencers at the same time, get more creatives and test hypotheses. Influencer platform TapInfluence conducted a study in which they found that campaigns with 30+ influencers showed significantly higher engagement, lower CPE and more even campaign optimization. However, working with many influencers at the same time may not be suitable for small brands due to lack of resources.
Authenticity. Micro-influencers are relatable. People see those who share their interests, sense of humor, or who could even be their friend. In addition, micro-influencers often connect with brands they would like to work with themselves, so their ads often have a more personal approach and genuine feel.
In order to understand who you should work with, you need to define several criterias.
What is your goal?
Do I plan to build a long-term relationship with creators?
Do I have enough resources to work with many influencers, or just a few?
What is my budget? Do I plan to use paid media to promote my posts?
These questions will help you define your influencer marketing strategy and select the right creators.
In this article, we will take a closer look at the differences of micro and macro influencers: who you should work with and
the goals you can achieve.
the goals you can achieve.
The main difference between micro and macro influencers is the number of followers and reach. Theoretically, anyone can be a micro-influencer. As a rule, social media isn’t their main
source of income, but rather a hobby or a part-time job. Macro-influencers can be classified as opinion leaders, professionals, and famous Internet personalities.
