Today’s Insight

📰 TL;DR - If you couldn’t attend Advertising Week New York, the hot topic of the conference was creators and their $29 billion industry.

Marketing Brew rounded up the seven main takeaways on influencer marketing from the week with testimonials from leaders at DoorDash, TikTok, L’Oréal, Dentsu, and more.

💡 Insight - Here are the seven areas marketers should be focusing on when diving into influencer marketing:

  • Creative Freedom - Hire good creators with a vision and let them do what they do best.

  • Clarity - Identify objectives ahead of time so you know what you want out of a creator relationship.

  • Control - Recognize that success from these partnerships is not guaranteed, just like any other marketing channel.

  • Collabs - Don’t feel like you need to just pick one creator.

  • Connection - Lean into the relationships creators have built with their audience & that organic feeling.

  • Consideration - Pay your creators & consider their needs carefully.

  • Competition - Either you work with creators or other brands will.
