We now live in a time where people trust social media platforms as a sort of news source. When it comes to social media marketing, and specifically when it comes to brands on social media, authenticity is key. Social networks are giant now. It’s clear that businesses need to have an online presence, but this means that the waters are a little diluted. Influencers can offer a lot of benefits to brands trying to reach more followers and new audiences. It’s not just influencers in general that businesses should be focused on. Micro-influencers may be an even more valuable tool to small businesses on social media.
