Don’ts

Don’t aim to work with influencers for only a limited time.

Working with influencers temporarily is never a smart strategy. 

If you are aiming to make an impact with your influencer marketing efforts, it is a must to partner with influencers for a considerable time span. Treat them as a company asset – a resource whose popularity and fandom can help you create hype for your brand and boost your bottom line.

Don’t just focus on the numbers.

Many internet creators don’t have many followers and still receive potential social media engagement, which is what matters in the end. So, keeping your eye only on the follower count while selecting an influencer is not effective – you should always check their overall feed and engagement as well.
