Let’s talk about some of the current marketing trends, especially those related to search engines and social media. These are methods businesses of all sizes can use for boosting sales.
Micro-influencers
Most businesses are aware of celebrity endorsements and social media influencers. The celebrities get extensive media coverage while the major influencers on social media have a large number of followers. However, the celebrities and influencers will charge a large amount. Sometimes $1 million for endorsing any product or service. Smaller businesses may not be able to afford this. Also, many people realize that celebrities are being paid a large amount for their endorsement, so they may not trust them. Hence increasingly businesses are preferring to use micro-influencers. These influencers have more than one thousand followers on social media.
Since micro-influencers are ordinary people, more consumers are likely to trust them. Research has also indicated that the conversion rate for micro-influencers is higher compared to celebrities. Also, they will not charge as much for endorsements. Usually $100-$500 is adequate for an endorsement.
