It’s not what you know, it’s who you know. That cliché piece of advice actually stands true in the age of the internet.

In a digital space full to the brim with anonymous strangers, knowing who to trust is more important than ever to online shoppers. Which explains the huge popularity of Influencers.

There’s no doubt about it, Influencer marketing works. Blogs and social media recommendations are trusted by 91 percent of online users.

Engage Online

First impressions count so give Influencers a follow on social media and subscribe to their blog newsletter. Comment on their blog posts, share their content, throw some @mentions, and backlink to content to start warming up to each other.

Connect Offline

You may not have this luxury, but nothing beats good, old face-to-face interaction. Is your Influencer speaking at an event or attending an event in you area? By attending, you will also have the opportunity to meet and network with other Influencers. A video call is a cool option, too!

Consistency Wins The Race

Building relationships is a long, enjoyable process. Don’t fall off the radar and stop engaging just because you’ve achieved some results.

Word Up:

Connecting with Influencers is the same as building any other kind of relationship. Just throw in some online engagement and collaboration into the mix, too!
