New year, new set of faces to follow — especially if you’re a brand or business hoping to reach a new audience. It’s no secret that content creators are the future of the marketing and advertising sector.
People tend to trust word of mouth more than anything when deciding what products they want to purchase, and it’s not easy capturing their attention. In a world where there are over a million beauty products and new releases happening every week, partnering with the right talent can either make or break your business.
They can be the difference between a product going viral or getting lost in an oversaturated market. We all know the big names and certainly need no reminder as to who they are, so we think it’s high time we talk about micro-influencers.
A micro-influencer is someone who has a following between 1000 - 10,000, and while it may seem like a small number, most of their audience is engaged and interacting with the creators content.
Smaller influencers also tend to produce work that feels authentic, rather than a sponsored ad. Australia has plenty of micro-influencers, and to make it easier on you, we’ve listed our faves, so get following!
If you’re looking for an IG feed to swoon over then look no further.
