Select the right influencer that matches your brand’s image is so crucial

Influencer marketing, or key opinion leader (KOL) marketing, is a new approach to social media marketing - endorsement and mentions of products through influential individuals who have a dedicated number of followers online and are regarded as an expert in their field across different industries - be it fashion, skincare, lifestyle, food, cars, investment.

Particularly on photo- and video-driven platforms such as Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube, influencer marketing strategy has become increasingly popular for brands. It is suggested that the return on investment (ROI) for influencer marketing is comparable or even better than other marketing channels, a high of up to 11 times more compared to other digital media. This is why selecting the right influencer that matches your brand’s image is so crucial.

Campaign planning and message development
Campaign planning and message development

Unlike other digital advertising, influencer marketing usually takes a longer time for planning, execution, and review. It takes time for influencers to be familiarised with your brand, products and services in order to deliver the message in a natural yet convincing way. Working closely with you, we help to set the goal and develop the campaign message and context for dedicated influencers to follow.

A campaign message is just as important as the campaign’s goal, so as to leverage KOL’s creativity and personal uniqueness to raise brand awareness and drive conversion. The message shall be structured, making it easy for the influencer to read, understand and follow - a brand's story that is easy for them to digest and share with their followers.

Here at Comms8, we have an extensive influencer network across various industry, business nature and social channels, targeting different audience groups. Saving all your hustles, there are over 1,000 KOLs on our #INCLUENCE8 platform where we recruit and work directly with influencers with great creativity and passion. We handpick influencers who best suit your brand's image, actively posting content that is relevant to your brand or industry and engaging around a solid base of followers.

There is no one influencer who suits every brand - It is also important to note the type of influencers that works well with your brand. For example, top-tier celebrities with a huge follower base might be best for luxury and well-established brands; whilst micro-influencers with a smaller follower base of 1,000-100,000 followers could be a better option for small- to medium-size companies and independent brands.

More than just the financial return of the campaign, Comms8 works with the intention to let influencers have real interaction and experience with your brand - be it live to stream with real-time product showcase, event experience, or more. At Comms8, we value influencer marketing more than just a post. It is an approach to enhance the brand's identity, engage with the audience and drive sales.
