KEY TAKEAWAYS

1. Influencer marketing is not a quick fix, so make sure you're in for the long run.
2. Work with creators who resonate with your brand and your ethos and vice versa. If you don't speak a similar lingo, it will never work. 
3. If you're doing influencer marketing, have an organic strategy in place—it's a full circle.
4. Just because you're doing influencer on one channel doesn't mean you can't leverage that content on other channels and maximise exposure. 
5. Use custom landing pages and Facebook Lookalike audiences to create a joined, powerful strategy.
6. Leverage UGC to drive users down the funnel faster and efficiently and get better engagement than traditional static or animated ads. 
7. Get some Fintech experts to do all the hard work—where Growth Gorilla comes in.
