The Psychology of Influencer Marketing

Influencer Marketing is one of the biggest challenges facing communicators. Unlike some audiences that brands and organizations cater to, influencers are not monolithic but are a loosely affiliated group of individuals who can have a pivotal influence on PR’s ability to drive conversation and spread the word. But getting people online to share information about your company’s products/services or values requires a different mindset than blasting a press release to a similar demographic or giving a presentation to like-minded people. Below are a few ways to boost your content promotion tactics by using insights from psychology, with compliments to BuzzStream and Fractl.
