4 things we learned about working with micro-influencers

We’re very optimistic about influencers, and content creators when it comes to sponsored posts.

Newsletter ads are important for our growth, and since late 2021, so are collaborations with micro-influencers in the marketing space. 

Here are a few early lessons we’ve learned that you can use for any industry:

Micro-influencers will often be open for collabs but won’t have a concrete service to offer.

Finding the right audiences and creators, especially for B2B, will take time.

But nothing that a good ol’ spreadsheet and some search terms can’t help with.

Creator content is likely going to be your best paid social ad type
