Deep dives

Defining B2B Influencer Marketing

Influencer marketing in the B2B space differs significantly from B2C, focusing on individuals with authority or credibility within specific industries. These influencers may include subject matter experts and practitioners who possess a loyal following on social media, providing valuable insights. The key is not about having millions of followers but rather cultivating a smaller, engaged audience, typically in the range of 10,000 to 50,000 followers. In this context, traditional celebrity endorsements are less effective, as the influence stems from genuine, trusted relationships rather than mass appeal.
