Influencer marketing is today's hot topic as we discuss prospecting, outreach, and simplifying your influencer marketing program without using expensive software. Joining us is Yash Chavan, the founder of SARAL, an influencer operating system for e-commerce.

Affiliates sell products and influencers build brands. So if you want to build your brand, you're going to need to learn how to work with the right influencer.

Yash has a ton of experience as we break down how to get influencers to take a commission-based deal, where people are getting influencer marketing wrong, and the benefits of using influencer software.

Today's episode goes hard and all-in on the future of influencer marketing in a way that only people like Joey and Yash (who've been doing this for a while) can predict.

Join us on this influencer-focused in-depth interview as we learn how you can 'make them an offer they can't refuse'!

"If you can avoid making transactions, and focus on building relationships, that will compound into something meaningful to you in three to six months." ~ Yash Chavan
