Can you swap free products for Facebook influencer posts?

Firstly, you may be wondering if it is possible to send free products to overseas celebrities in exchange for posting promotional content or positive comments on Facebook. While this is possible, especially for junior celebrities with small followings, it is not really an ideal way to work together, with only 5.7% of Facebook celebrities statistically willing to accept free products in exchange for posting, and over 70% preferring a combination of direct cash payment and a free product trial.

What are the factors that affect influencer compensation?

The price of Facebook weblebrities may vary greatly, how to judge the cost and price of marketing when cooperating with overseas weblebrities? IZEA has concluded that there are several factors that can affect the price of a weblebrity, such as

Fan base and audience size

It goes without saying that internet celebrities with large audiences of followers charge more. For example, Kim Kardashian, who has 306 million followers on Instagram, charges between $300,000 and $500,000 for an endorsement. While her pay is certainly at the head of the pack on Instagram, it does show a direct correlation between pay and follower size.

Types of content

Different types of content require different time and cost investments. For example, Facebook image posting is cheaper than video content. A simple product review is cheaper than an ebook review report. The more work it takes to create content, the more it costs.

Interaction rate

Experienced weblebrities will invest more in their daily traffic and post sponsorship to increase engagement rates, so the higher the engagement rate the more weblebrities will be able to charge. The average engagement rate for social media weblebrities is between 2-3%, and between 4-6% is good enough for any conversation and social attribution among teens to go viral.

Exclusive cooperation

IF YOU FIND WEBLEBRITIES THAT ARE TRULY RELEVANT AND CLOSELY RELATED TO YOUR AUDIENCE, YOU MAY WANT THESE KOLS TO WORK EXCLUSIVELY WITH YOUR BRAND. IF THIS IS THE CASE, THE WEBLEBRITY MUST SIGN A NON-COMPETE AGREEMENT AND BE PAID MORE TO COVER ANY OTHER CONTRACTS AND INCOME THAT THE WEBLEBRITY MUST DECLINE DURING THIS PERIOD.
