Worried about your influencer marketing ROI? You should be. Most brands make one critical mistake that tanks their campaigns before they even start. I sat down with Ryan Davis, co-founder of the creator agency People First, to uncover The #1 Mistake Killing Your Influencer Marketing ROI. The answer, backed by a Stanford University study, is a lack of creative control. Ryan explains why giving creators more freedom leads to better performing content and a higher return on investment. We also cover how to get brand deals with a small following and the simple things that can get a creator blacklisted.
