“Influencer marketing and creator marketing is a lot more than just sending creators product and having them post.” @jadesai94 #DTCPOD“The fastest way to level up your content is by delivering creators a strong creative brief.” @jadesai94 #DTCPOD“In your creative brief, you want to include three to four brand values and three to four product benefits that you want the creator influencer to mention.” @jadesai94 #DTCPOD“If the content didn’t meet your expectations, it’s okay to provide feedback.

Most brands were just sending product and waiting for influencers to post.Now, there is much more involved in the process.If you really want to get the most out of influencer marketing, you are going to need to do more than just send product to an influencer or creator.That part is important, but it’s also important that you get the most mileage out of your campaign. This means focusing on the content as much as picking the creator with the right audience.Focusing on the content can allow you to get more value out of influencer marketing. You can repurpose content in ads, social media, your website, emails, and more.This content usually performs much better than in-house content so getting this right can add big benefits to your marketing strategy down the line.The road to better content from creators starts with a strong style guide. You need to tell creators how you want the content shot, what shouldn’t be included, and provide great examples.If you don’t have great examples, pick up some photos from Unsplash, do a quick search on Google images, or share screenshots from a brand whose content you enjoy.Looking for more tips?Stay tuned to this episode as we dive into further detail about the style guide and offer four more tips to follow to maximize the value of working with creators and influencers.If you’d like to learn more about Trend and our influencer marketing platform for influencers and brands visit trend.io.

Sam knows a thing or two about product reinvention.His company, Goodwipes, sells disposable wipes.Even though disposable wipes have been around for a while, Sam and his Co-founder Charlie decided to take a stab at reinventing the space.No one was really innovating in disposable wipes so they decided to bring their wipes to the market as a high-quality, premium, and eco-friendly option.To bring a better product to the market, Sam and Charlie spent a good part of a year doing research and development.To reinvent a product category, you need more than a great founder storyThe part that put Sam and Charlie over the top was their attention to understanding the market. They had a fantastic founder story, but to convince retailers they needed more.Their understanding of the toilet paper market and how they could acquire customers was a big reason that retailers decided to supply their products.Sam and Charlie also had a great understanding of shoppers. They knew that many adults really didn’t want to shop for disposable wipes but were open to more brands that were value-driven.Goodwipes was able to capitalize on that market gap to grow.Even though Goodwipes had a first-mover advantage, they are constantly working to grow and maintain their share of the market.Stay tuned as Sam discusses his thoughts on product reinvention, whether there is still space to reinvent products, and how Goodwipes is staying ahead of competition.If you’d like to learn more about Trend and our influencer marketing platform for influencers and brands visit trend.io.
