Here are some facts on working with a YouTube Influencer:

Get Started with Influencers

To find influencers, there are a lot of platforms to start. You will find listings, cost estimates for working with influencers and a tool for contacting potential candidates. That is how these platforms work and are created.

How does the Partnership begin?

We can't deny the fact that most of the brands approach the influencer. There are lots of platforms that will connect brands with influencers and vice versa. A lot of people have more success getting brand deals than other people, it is just a lot of things to do with the ability to be seen on the internet.

For an example, a brand is looking for a Beauty Vlogger, and that is your niche but you did not come up on Google's search result, you are not searchable. In that case, you are going to have a hard time getting sponsorships. You need to be on some sort of list, you have to show up in the search result.

What does an influencer need from a brand to do their job well?

Aside from the huge bucks received by an influencer, creative control is also a part of some aspects that an influencer needs. Brands needed to trust that the influencer is going to be able to deliver what is needed to be with their audience. Brands can offer guidelines, but they should let the influencer develop the idea for the video. Influencers spend numerous hours outlining their own personal brand and learning what their audience likes. When the brand gives the influencer all the information and then they let the influencer take it from there, the result is, a good influencer will be able to come up with an innovative way to promote the product. Then the magic starts.

Is the influencer the right fit for the product that is being marketed?

Get to know what the influencer's channel is about and who their audience is by doing good research. Watch the influencer's videos and read the comments. If they had a really active channel and the influencer is doing a lot of videos that are relevant to your product, then it's probably the right person you want.

The special ingredient to a great YouTube Influencer campaign.

Just like the previous topic, it's about finding the right fit. For example, a very popular YouTube influencer in the field of beauty tutorials has 5 million subscribers and has people watching every single move of that influencer, if they were to promote a new contour palette the people would definitely buy that product. The more the influencer is established, the more they can stray from what they would normally promote.
