What are the differences between influencer marketing and affiliate marketing?

Affiliate marketing and influencer marketing are often lumped together and treated as one and the same thing. According to Insider Intelligence, affiliate marketing accounted for 9.6% of netroots marketing revenue in 2021, while brand partnerships accounted for 68%. While they sometimes produce the same results, there are key differences between affiliate marketing and influencer marketing. Affiliate marketing helps brands generate sales and pays a commission fee for each sale made using their online marketing code or link. Influential KOLs, on the other hand, create content to increase brand engagement, awareness and sales by highlighting the benefits of a specific product or even an entire company. Affiliate Marketing vs. influencer Marketing Over the years, influential influencer and affiliate marketing have helped brands achieve higher conversion rates and higher ROI than TV and radio. This is thanks to the power of social media. While influencers typically utilize social media sites or platforms, affiliate marketing companies use a variety of methods. Some affiliate marketing channels promote their products on their social media pages, while others create websites and digital tools to engage their target audience. Influential webmasters are often paid a flat fee or given products to create and post content that promotes their brand and/or products, and in some cases, webmasters are also given membership codes or a commission cut of each sale made on the content they bring to market. Benefits of influencer Marketing Determining which strategy is best for your brand can take time and effort. influencer marketing can focus on long-term improvements in metrics such as click-through rates, social media SEO, and engagement using content creation. Marketers work with influential weblebrities to gain authenticity and build credibility and trust. Social media weblebrities are successful because they have the ability to position themselves as experts in their field while inspiring those who support them as fans. Their audience is more inclined to trust them and listen to their advice and opinions. Our Trust in influencer Marketing report shows that 62% of respondents are more likely to trust an influential influencer blogger with sponsored posts than a top tier celebrity. Brands also have better control over influential online celebrity marketing campaigns. Depending on the contract, they can choose the best person for the job, develop a content strategy, request changes and post content multiple times. Benefits of Affiliate Marketing Affiliate marketing is relatively simple. It can be easily implemented into a strategy without adding additional, complex planning steps. However, it can take time and effort to find a quality tool that can create unique URLs and allow for conversion tracking. With our next generation online affiliate marketing platform, IZEA...

IZEA MARKETING CLASS: HOW TO MAKE GOOD OUT-OF-THE-BOX VIDEO CONTENT

Unboxing videos have been a consumer favorite since they first appeared on YouTube in the early 2000s. Every month, more than 90,000 people type "unboxing" into YouTube. Since TikTok became the most downloaded app in recent years, the #unboxing hashtag has been viewed on TikTok 44.3 billion times. As brands looking to produce great unboxing video content with their target online celebrity KOLs, make sure your video has the following seven important elements. 1. High Quality Video While it sounds simple to say that an unboxing video should be high quality, that's not to say that it requires professional production standards. The appeal of videos for influencer marketing is authenticity, meaning that the person reviewing the product is doing so independently without professional guidance or brand stylization. This is very important! For influential weblebrities, quality video is not just about avoiding shaky cameras, blurry footage or distracting background noise, but also about good lighting, clear vocals and authentic review content. The ideal video clip should include wide-angle shots, close-ups and clips of the weblebrity's facial expressions as they show and review each product. Using an overhead view gives a close-up of the entire contents of the box. The length of the video depends on the platform and the product. For example, unboxing a simple piece of clothing may be relatively short. In contrast, iJustine's iPhone 14s YouTube unboxing video is over 22 minutes long, so she can provide a full review and highlight features and benefits. 2. The key word here is "short" because you don't want to lose interest before the viewer watches the unboxing video. Before you start the unboxing, just give a brief description. Mention the brand or company and the product that will be unboxed. Hint that there will be a demonstration, a tutorial, and whether there will be a follow-up video to direct viewers to the brand's website or social channels, or even an end credit. ...

How to Find Overseas influencer KOL on TikTok

Over the years, TikTok has become the social platform of choice for millennials. If they are part of your target audience, then TikTok should be an important part of your marketing strategy. However, as the number of TikTok users and weblebrities has grown by leaps and bounds, it has become increasingly difficult for brands to find a target audience and the right weblebrity to work with. While collaborating with super influencer on TikTok still works, it is often easier to produce desirable marketing results with overseas waifs or KOCs with smaller fan bases to create a real connection with a pendant audience as the price tag continues to climb. What is a local online celebrity KOL? Overseas local online celebrity KOLs are celebrity bloggers located near the actual markets that brands and products target. They usually have more than 10,000 precise as well as highly engaged followers in the same area. They tend to post more targeted content, thus increasing engagement. Overseas local influencer marketing with scale is perfect for small businesses looking to attract new customers or connect with existing customers. How to find local influential online celebrity KOLs overseas? Use these tips provided by IZEA to find influential bloggers on TikTok for your brand: 1. TikTok Search When trying to find micro-niche on TikTok, searching within the official app is certainly effective and accurate. After logging into your account, click on the search bar in the upper right corner. Type in the name of a celebrity or category, then your location, and then select the "Users" option. Scroll through the list of accounts and even filter by criteria to narrow down your search to get a list of the webmasters you want to find. 2. For You page recommendations If your brand account is active and regularly interacts with content in your niche or created from nearby locations, then the For You page may be helpful. This page displays content and accounts that are relevant to your interests, segments and locations. 3. Hashtags Hashtags are a great way to find webloggers in your location and niche. You can enter a hashtag in the search bar and scroll through the list of content, or go to the "Hashtags" option and search for that hashtag and other similar hashtags. Including #ad will show you sponsored content that the creator has already posted. When searching for a hashtag in a segment, the more specific the better. Broader hashtags can provide insight into overall content trends, but when searching for online celebrities and bloggers (especially local KOLs), differentiation may give you the desired results. 4. 4. Keywords As with subject tags, targeted keywords can be used to find influential webloggers in your target location and segment. The two results will be very similar, but the keyword search results may contain content not found in the subject tag and vice versa. 5....

Content Ideas for Planning Holiday Marketing with Instagram influencer

For Instagram creators, this is the perfect time to promote their favorite products, services and sales to help inspire their followers to shop. For brands it's also a time for you to know which influencer KOLs your audience will love for holiday marketing and how to create content for Instagram post ideas. Below IZEA summarizes some of the most popular post topics from the past for brand marketers to consider. First, make sure you've put together a holiday content calendar that works for you. This will help you plan your content in an organized manner without feeling overwhelmed with what to post and when. The next step is to target content topics that are relevant to your products and brand. It's important to work with influencer content for holiday tangents. Take a look at what kind of content hashtags are most popular for holidays abroad! Holiday Gift List Recommendations An easy way to collaborate with influencer to share holiday content on Instagram is to use your existing KOL connections. Many brands are promoting amazing direct deals this slot, and you can get them to share links to those purchases through sponsored posts or membership codes. But on the topic of working with influencer, it's even better to speak from the influencer blogger's perspective and include your brand or product in the best gift list. This can be better accepted and reached by consumers who want to buy. Showcase favorite holiday outfits If you are a fashion brand or an online celebrity in a related field, now is the time to share your favorite holiday outfit ideas with your followers and audience. Content about holiday outfits is always one of the most searched types of content in this marketing slot. For example, through online celebrities sharing some of their favorite brands with matching outfits together for holiday events (e.g. parties, dinners, shopping trips, etc.). Usually fashion and beauty brands will join the slot to cleverly collaborate deeply with netizen bloggers, not only sharing fashion trends for holiday wear, but also sponsoring some super netizen's year-end events to influence every audience searching for holiday-themed content. Holiday Staging and Space Decor With several year-end heavy holidays coming up for Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's, content on how to decorate a room, inspiration for staging, and more is very popular. Regardless of your brand's style, the online fans you work with want to see how they recreate their spaces and decorate their homes with unexpected creative touches. During the holiday season, many home brands, small appliances, etc. book their influencer slots in advance. Plan ahead with creative content, create content from a home decorating content perspective, gift and DIY perspective, and wait for a surge in search volume to gain free natural exposure and traffic, which can be twice the effort. Promotion and goodies sharing As a brand don't miss this best slot for influencer sharing sales. Many KOLs in the goodies sharing category know that the two months at the end of the year are the best sales period, and will share attractive cheap goodies, promotional discounts, and trial experiences according to different attributes and needs of the holidays. Holiday season is not only the busiest time for netizens, but also the best marketing window for brands to clear their sales at the end of the year. Choosing the most suitable category to plant the influencer can be very effective. The Instagram snap feature provides a less curated and more trustworthy form of content for people, allowing audiences to learn how to use the product through a influencer, or a influencer KOL can tell them why you should buy it for yourself (or someone else) this holiday season. A great example of this is lifestyle blogger Krista Horton, who has shared a lot of promotional product seeding content and made amazing sales through Instagram Story. Develop a Year in Review Showcases highlights of your best content throughout the year. It brings a new perspective to your best content and can attract more followers. It can be your popular photos forming a rotating post or some clips of your Reels from the year. for online celebrity bloggers, this type of content is what fans look forward to at the end of the year, and as such a content format becomes more and more popular, implanting this type of content has become a creative point for some smart brands when marketing with online celebrity bloggers at the end of the year.
