January 10, 2017 3:18 pm Published by

With sites like Forbes, SocialMediaToday and Adweek listing Influencer Marketing as one of the hottest trends to watch in 2017, we thought it was time to give our registered marketers more features and flexibility – empowering your brands to make an impact through influencers in 2017.

Most marketers understand Webfluential to be an influencer marketing agency – but what most marketers don’t know is that all the tools and technology required to find influencers are available to use as self-serve.  In addition, we have recently introduced regional agency partnerships – to support marketers with the running of larger scale campaigns. Our accredited partners can be found here.

If you’re already registered as a marketer – I’d like to encourage you to log into your Webfluential account and have a look around. If you aren’t, you can register here to try out the platform for free. You’ll be able to see first hand just how easy it is to find and connect with the right influencers, you’ll also be able to see all the new benefits you have access to once you upgrade your account. If you’re not quite ready to upgrade, you’ll still have access to our partners to help you run great campaigns. 

This is a sneak peek under the hood of the new Webfluential self-serve platform:

The Life of an Influencer in a Series Memes

November 22, 2016 4:04 pm Published by

A series of influencer-focused infographics were recently published on Social Media Today. The first addition to the series, titled “An influencers Guide to the Galaxy” highlighted some of the key trends and learnings currently taking place in the social world. More followed after that. The infographic series generated a tonne of conversation and people wanted to know more about being a YouTuber, Instagrammer or social influencer. It’s great to know we’re creating content that is helpful and informative to our community!

We had a lot of fun creating these infographics as a team, gathering all the data and insight around the life of influencers. But all hard work and no play is not what we’re about at Webfluential, so we’ve done something a little extra for our influencer community. Something a bit more fun than usual.

Have a look at a few of the memes summarising an influencers journey to explaining what exactly they do.
