How To Get Value Out of Influencer Marketing
When done right, Influencer marketing is powerful and valuable. You might find yourself struggling to find a volume of quality influencers to create word of mouth around your brand. You could scan millions of Instagram users and approach influencers one-by-one to try and persuade them to endorse your product. Or you could take the easy way out, and use a self-serve marketplace like TRIBE where we bring influencers to brands hungry for their creative and original content. Plus, there's only so many times you can take the hit of a seen message with no reply. CMO took a deep dive into the different influencer marketing platforms you can use to get the most out of Influencer Marketing with the least effort, TRIBE included, so have a read here.

While the difference between influencers and brands once existed, popular influencers have so many followers, they’ve grown their personal brand to the point of and becoming a brand themselves.

Follower Bots and Why Brands Won’t Work With You
2018 Update to Influencer Rating: In a bid to protect the energy of both our influencers and brands, we have updated TRIBE’s influencer ratings to penalise any current bot activity detected on influencer accounts. See here for more details. Once you completely stop using these tools, your rating will begin to recover. Growing an Instagram account is hard. It’s tricky being patient in an industry growing as quickly as influencer marketing. Unfortunately the fear of ‘missing the boat’ is driving many to set up FOLLOWER BOTS to cut corners. While these can boost numbers in the short-term, brands are now lumping Follower Bots in the same bucket as buying fake followers, likes and comments. But it makes sense. In fact, we’ve recently noticed at TRIBE how many influencers are being declined because of them. Bots are costing talented content creators LOADS of valuable collaborations.
