Influencer Marketing Panel Discussion

Influencer marketing. A popular buzzword and a top marketing trend, but, really, what does it mean? We know marketing pros across industries are looking for ways to integrate influencer marketing into their strategy, but doing so in a smart and authentic way remains a challenge.

This was the topic of a recent panel discussion held with three of West Michigan’s brightest influencers on how you can harness influencer marketing in a way that makes sense for your business and brand. The panel discussed how you can approach, interact, and work with influencers to help drive your marketing efforts.

Since the panel was held in a Q&A format with a moderator, we thought it would be best to record the panel discussion for rebroadcasting on today’s podcast.

One thing that is important to note is that while we were speaking to influencers that live in West Michigan, their audiences are spread throughout the United States and the marketing concepts discussed are applicable nationally and internationally.

Key Topics

  • Influencer Marketing
  • Audiences & Follower Counts
  • Authenticity & Causes
  • Costs & Numbers
