Top 5 tips on collaborating with influencers 
Influencers

Influencers are people who have a great impact on people. Their audience looks at them for inspiration and follows them. Today, social media is all about influencers!
The question lies in how to find the right influencer for your brand. This article is about how you can collaborate with influencers, and which influencers fit you best.

What is an influencer collaboration?

An influencer collaboration is a partnership that is made between the business and influencers. The business organization tends to offer incentives to the influencers in which they have to publish content about the brand’s products and services. A legal agreement is done where factors like pay, incentives, content required, and the scope of the work are decided. These terms and conditions are approved by both parties.

Now is your time to think carefully about who you chose for your brand. Every influencer is different and has an impact of its own on its customers, and some are not even influential. There are times when you collaborate with an influencer; however that is not the right decision.
The factors you should consider before collaborating are:

The influencer content must be powerful. You must look that the content the influencer create dares to influence behaviors, and helps to persuade customers in their buying decision.

Growing social media network does not only refer to the number of followers the influencer has. But, it is about the strategy and the way an influencer is using to promote a brand.
Before choosing the influencer, you must ask certain questions to yourself. Are they online on social media platforms? Do they participate in community activities? If the influencer has enough connections to boost your brand, this is what you want.

To check the authenticity of an influencer, you must check their engagement on social media. The amount of posts and the interaction the influencer has with their audience is all that describes authenticity.

Tips on collaborating with influencers

When you find the perfect influencer for your brand, everything works just fine. The return on Investment tends to increase by 20% if the influencer is the perfect match. But, what if the performance is not up to the mark? This may be a reason for choosing the wrong influencer for your brand campaign.
Here are some tips you need before choosing an influencer that is authentic and has a great influence on the audience.

1. Set your campaign goals and set KPIs

Goals are important to follow a direction. Are you desiring to promote your brand, launch a new product, or want to expand your reach? You have to be clear about the goal you have. This will help you choose the right influencer and the strategy for your brand.
Once the goals are clear, you need to keep a check and balance on how well is the strategy performing. Set Key Performance indicators (KPIs) to monitor the results. Discuss with your influencer partners what you want and how to monitor the audience.

Influencers are people who are generally more connected to the public. You have collaborated with an influencer to use their creative minds. Let your partners bring on their ideas to you that you can discuss. Do not create obstacles in listening to their way of working.
Always think out of the box. Influencers are praised due to their innovative mindsets that help you stand out in a crowd. You must do your research before going for a strategy and use previous ideas as help, but do something new and attractive.

Today, giveaways are generally the easiest way used by brands to attract their audience. Influencers have a large targeted audience that can help your brand be viewed by millions. You can always collaborate with an influencer to give some of your products as a giveaway.
Your partner collaborators can add specific things to the post; liking, following, commenting, etc. This will be an enchanting offer for the customers and would help in reaching your brand post to many.

4. Don't forget about bloggers and vloggers

Bloggers and Vloggers are people who carry out a detailed description of your product with an experience that they have. If you are aiming to inform your customers about your product in a detailed version, bloggers/vloggers are the choice you can make. 

Adding one of them to your marketing team would increase the credibility of your brand with more people being attracted to your products and services. Their videos and blogs are found engaging by the audience and they seem to look forward to them to schedule their future purchases. 

5. Create offers with discount codes and coupons

A discount code sets a relief to their mind of buying something at a lower price than usual.

Create offers with your collaborators and tada!
