Influencer marketing is a term from the fields of digital branding, digital marketplaces, and iROI digital marketing. In influencer marketing, companies work with well-known personalities from the internet \u2013 so-called influencers \u2013 to promote their products or services. These influencers often have many followers on platforms such as Instagram, YouTube, or TikTok and enjoy a high level of trust there.<\/p>\n
What's special about influencer marketing is that advertising doesn't appear as a classic advert, but rather in the form of a personal recommendation.
