For those of you who listen regularly, have read my book or follow me on social channels, you know the difference between influence marketing and influencer marketing. One is focused on the noun. When we say âinfluencerâ marketing, your brain is conditioned to think about Instagram, YouTube or TikTok. The other, is focused on what youâre trying to accomplish. The verb. You wish to influence. You donât wish to influencer. That makes no sense. Still, most brands and agencies are conditioned by the R to be very tunnel visioned on leveraging those who have large or relevant social media audiences. They look at follower counts. Some smarter one also look at engagement rates. The good ones also look at content and brand alignment. But even those good ones are often still seeing the opportunity with blinders on. I can help you remove those blinders and really focus on influencing, not just influencers.  Iâll explain how in todayâs commentary. Today, I welcome a new sponsor to the show. Iâve been testing TrendHERO for the last week. Itâs a new but advanced influencer marketing software platform specific to Instagram. TrendHERO can help you search and discover Instagrammers based on a wide range of filters, from nano influencers, all the way to celebrities. There are over 90 million profiles in their database. The feature I like most is its advanced fake followers check. They also have an algorithm that tells you how real the comments are on a given Instagrammerâs content. So if youâre in a vertical that might be susceptible to comment pods and fake followers, TrendHERO can help you suss out which Instagrammers are worth it and which arenât.
