A panel discussion moderated by Sara Bozich (@sarabozich) and featuring national social media influencers, Jehava Brown (@onlygirl4boyz) and Heather Kuntz (@heatherkirkk)
Over 90% of marketers have used influencer marketing in their campaigns, and it’s now considered a key advertising strategy, performing better and driving more engagement than branded posts. Spending on influencer marketing has doubled in the last three years. Yet, much of what happens behind the scenes of social media influencing remains a mystery.
How can PR professionals capitalize on this fast-growing piece of the marketing mix? What’s a typical day look like for an influencer? What can we learn from these prolific content creators about the power of persuasion, prose, and PR in the online environment?
Join us as our moderator and panelists discuss their journeys and challenges as social media influencers; share the good, bad, and ugly of working with communications professionals; and provide practical tips on how we can all show up more authentically online.
