guess who managed to mention dnp in his a level media exam 🔥🔥

[obstinaterixatrix]

okay the thing is what I really like about happiness (2009) is that it kind of plays hopscotch with the line between revue and continuous story and the reason it feels successful to me is because 1) wiedman does a good job having each character clearly being the main character of their own narratives and incidentally these other randos are here, the characters that exit the narrative do so because they're done with it; 2) wiedman does a good job showcasing how and why each moment of happiness might have such strong meaning to each individual, it's essentially a string of character studies; the ones that exit the narrative earlier have, like... mechanically sound reasons for doing so.

given that the only way to get the full context of this is to either be in 2009 and watch the show, or to request permission to schedule an appointment to view it in an archive, or wait until the script gets released, I'm just going to go through each character, their song, and what narrative/structural utility is highlighted by each one. oh I probably need to include a summary of the musical

the summary from concord theatricals:

Happiness unfolds the stories of a dozen or so New Yorkers stuck in the morning rush of a stalled subway car and required by the spectral trainman to recall and re-enact the happiest moment in their lives before they can continue their travels... and travails. Happiness celebrates those fleeting moments in everyday lives – typically unanticipated, largely overlooked, always ephemeral – that upon reflection become people's fondest memories.

so there are *supposed* to be seven passengers, but there's actually eight. you know what I'm just going to go down the cast list and have a brief blurb.

Cast:

Stanley: train conductor

Zack: not supposed to be here

Helen: really old lady

Kevin: somewhat older gentleman

Gina: wants a life of glamor, is in retail

Maurice: somewhat older gentleman (refined)

Cindy and Neil: interracial couple

Miguel: chipper carefree (kinda fuckboy) vibes

Arlene: right-wing radio host

to set this up, there's the first number which has everyone in the cast rushing around and also kind of giving the context to their death (except one guy who doesn't die and just gets on the train by accident). the second number has stanley, the train conductor, complaining about everyone and in general giving off "I hate my job and I hate people" vibes--very specifically saying that, no matter what people might think, they're all "blips on the cosmic radar". the train stops, everyone complains, stanley comes in and prompts them to all think of their happiest moment.

Helen; “Flibberty Jibbers and Wobbly Knees”

Helen is a really old lady in a wheelchair. the context we get for her cause of death is her wheelchair rolling away from an oblivious nurse. the moment she picks is going to a dance with a friend and meeting a drafted soldier before he's sent to WWII. the song is titled “Flibberty Jibbers and Wobbly Knees”, sung by the band at the dance. in terms of mechanics, this scene offers the following: 1) it shows a different side to stanley that contrasts his initial presentation, he sits with Helen and listens patiently as all the other commuters are arguing; 2) it starts off the explanation for the premise, having to pick one happy moment to live in after death; 3) it shows an example of happiness from an older perspective and an example of happiness related to a distant memory; 4) it makes casting an old woman pretty feasible by not being too demanding; she's there for three scenes and she gets to exit, whether she's present in the ensemble in future scenes can be left up to the production. like it balances a lot of considerations and I think it matches them pretty well. and one of the aspects of happiness highlighted here is essentially the impact of potential that ends being cut short. Helen's sweetheart gets drafted, gets deployed, and dies during the war. Helen gets married and lives a full life afterwards, but still chooses this moment for the emotions she felt during the time and because he never got to be in her life. I really like it because it really... even if tragedy happened later, even if it never went anywhere, these moments still have meaning! the joy of those experiences aren't wasted! anyway I like it.

2. Kevin; “Best Seats in the Ballpark”

So Kevin is an older gentleman who works as doorman, like his father before him, and this song actually... exists in the world because there's a video up on youtube, maybe as a workshop? maybe at a concert before the musical? anyway, his death context is that he was a cancer survivor but went in for a check up since things were feeling off. at the hospital, he sees someone who looks Pretty Rough and kevin asks admin (or a nurse?) to let that guy go ahead. with that said, there are several ways this scene fits into where it is in the narrative: 1) while everyone else is in denial about death, kevin provides confirmation Well He's Definitely Dead Because He Was Just At The Hospital For Cancer Stuff; 2) similar to Helen--in fact, building off of Helen--Kevin showcases an older perspective of finding A Happy Moment and having more surety/closure. Helen and Kevin being older characters and being among the first to leave definitely feels in line with like... since both of them are in positions that are closer to death, with age and illness, it makes sense for them to feel more resolved with their life. I didn't even talk about the song yet lmao, it's “Best Seats in the Ballpark” and it's about the time he was a kid and his father's boss promised him and his dad Really Good Seats to the ballgame, then forgets and gives them to someone else, but Kevin's dad is determined to fulfill his promise to Kevin and buys tickets himself and gets them... The Worst Seats In The Ballpark. weather's terrible, view's terrible. everything kind of sucks. and in that moment kevin sees something terrifying in his father: disappointment in himself. so they decide to pack it in and leave, but then there's a complete turn around because their end of the field is where the action amps up and some star baseball guy is right under them and making The Catch Of The Game and LOOKS UP AT HIM and kevin SWEARS he WINKS AT THEM!! so it's this whole moment of triumph, it's about the effort his dad took to fulfill his promise, it's about the effort not being wasted, it's about sports. and then he leaves because he doesn't need to deal with anyone else's stuff in order to move on lol.

So we have two easy exits that don't really interact with the rest of the cast and don't really need to. do we need them both? I say: yes. because I like them. I think they're sweet. but also because having those two before the next one really reinforces how it turns out, there's practical utility in having 1) establishing mechanics, 2) reinforcing mechanics, and 3) trying to manipulate mechanics. I'll explain more when I'm talking about it

3. Gina; "Gstaad"

So Gina is a woman in her late 20s/early 30s who works at the perfume counter of a department store. her death context is while she was walking around some construction accident happens. after Kevin exits the narrative and The Mechanics Of The Train are essentially proven, she's actually happy. *really* happy. In fact, she has her moment all picked out--while she was traveling in Gstaad and admiring the view from her hotel room and the lake was beautiful and there was a hot guy who was super into her... except it's not real because a different passenger is an architect who actually was in Gstaad and knows the scenery and knows that what she's describing isn't how it actually looks. so she tries again, but he keeps correcting her, and it comes out that she's trying to put herself in a fantasy because she's always dreamed of a life of glamor but has always been trapped behind the department store counter. this is, of course, setting her up for later identifying a happy moment within her life. this establishes 1) establishing another outlier for future development and exploration (character who is trying to look outside of her own life for a happy moment), 2) further clarifying rules and mechanics.

so you do need both of the first exits because it allows the development to be: 1) are these the rules? 2) these *are* the rules! 3) let's try finding a loophole in these rules. going straight from 1 to 3 wouldn't really have as much impact or buy-in.

also, Gina's non-moment directly leads into the next character's actual moment.

3 (for real). Maurice; "The Boy Inside Your Eyes"

Maurice is another older gentleman who is specifically black and gay. He's a well-known architect that gets features in magazines and travels around the world and is living the exact life of glamor that Gina dreams of. of course, he tells Gina that it's not what it's cracked up to be, and of course Gina dismisses that because it's easy to say when you're rich and famous, and that leads to Maurice describing his happy moment in "The Boy Inside Your Eyes". how it goes is this: Maurice's partner is in the hospital with AIDS and is just about at the end. it's like. mega depressing. me and sister cried during the number. Maurice shows up with a picnic, his partner essentially pleads with him to just stop doing all that because his partner is miserable and dying and is essentially not worth spending time around at this point, and maurice's song is about how even though it's a pretty miserable situation he's choosing to be there out of love, and is able to convince his partner to eat and enjoy the picnic. I definitely think this one loses impact without the visuals, and with visuals it's really. I've heard the song without visuals before and was alright but after seeing it acted out and everything I get teary just thinking about it. so anyway, this serves the purpose of 1) concretely countering Gina's perspective because this guy literally lived that life, 2) having a character choose a moment directly in response to the previous scene. has continuity while transitioning the character to leave the narrative, because seeing Gina's desperation for glamor clearly reinforces to him what he really finds important. and the moment that's highlighted is unique from the other older folks' moment because it's not a childhood or young adult memory, it's something that takes place in his later years. This establishes variety and avoids locking the narrative into The Only Moments Worth Anything Are In The Beginning Of Your Life, which I'm sure is a message the writers would've wanted to avoid. anyway, it's also a very unique moment because it's so sad. it's so fucking sad. anyway, whereas helen's moment is highlighting the meaning of joy before (and despite) future tragedy, maurice's moment is about finding joy during tragedy, and is less of One Moment and more of The Natural Accumulation Of Moments. when maurice chooses that moment as his happiest moment, it is build off the context of their entire relationship. the first meeting, the falling in love, the struggles, how they've started and how they've grown and why they've committed, the weight of that culminates in being able to have a peaceful moment together. and I think another really sweet part is that maurice's moment has less emphasis on Being Happy In The Moment, and is more focused on being able to cheer up his partner in a moment of despair. ough.

anyway then there's a song with the remaining passengers getting a little more anxious about picking a moment--started out with 8, went down to 5, (4 dead, 1 living), and as they're getting agitated they turn against the train conductor and go like hey. what the FUCK is his deal. Zack, the living dude, specifically goes something like "they're dead, I'm not, which one are you?" and we get sent to stanley's lack of a moment which I'm going to add to the list but not count

x. Stanley; "Step Up the Ladder"

So Stanley, as it turns out, was an investment banker, "the big bad barbarian at the gate"--basically he didn't give a shit about anyone or anything except making money, he died in his 40s, and as the song reveals, if you don't pick a moment you end up as a guide for others to find their moment. now, this is necessary because it clarifies the rules to the other characters and the audience, and it also raises the stakes for the remaining characters. it also is a Direct Callout for Zack, basically saying he's on the road to being exactly like Stanley was. this is a good midpoint, separating the ones who are able to be sure and able to leave the narrative from those who are unsure and unable to leave yet for whatever reason. so in terms of mechanics: 1) rules clarification, 2) introduces stakes, 3) reinforces character parallels, 4) Banger Of A Song With Killer Choreography. oh, something else cool it does is by highlighting some of the moments from the passengers with stanley, you get more little nuggets of what can be considered happy moments, like if you *want* to read into it, it gives you ample opportunity. someone says "the winning hand in vegas", someone else says "my final cigarette" and even THOSE SNIPPETS are just. so interesting. for example, 'winning hand in vegas' to me speaks of someone who isn't used to winning, so a moment of victory and triumph, and 'final cigarette' could be finding a moment of peace before death or it could be the final cigarette before deciding to quit or it could be something else entirely. something that gets me immediately teary is that there *is* a little girl who says "the nutcracker suite with my mom" like. even with so little that says so much. it's a GOOD show they did a good job with it. okay anyway moving on

4. Cindy and Neil; "Family Flashcards"

Cindy and Neil are a fairly young couple, maybe 20s-30s range; they're both definitely nurses, Cindy is Chinese and Neil is Jewish. Side note, in Stanley's song there's some Yiddish so having Neil sort imo avoids of antisemitic stereotyping and establishes pretty firmly the stance These Are All Different People In Different Conditions, but your mileage may vary on that. So throughout the whole show, this couple is. Very Clearly Tired And Kind Of Miserable. they're snippy with each other, but they show moments of connection and alignment, e.g. Cindy is very much "oh my god are you alright do you need your inhaler" whenever Neil's Going Through It. after stanley's number, though, neil has an epiphany and knows exactly what moment to pick, he goes to cindy and goes like hey if this isn't your moment it's okay and I understand but then it turns out they both have the same moment. cheesy, but charming and therefore forgivable. anyway, cindy and neil being an interracial couple is very much the center of this, and family flashcards is them being exhausted after doing nurse stuff, but neil goads a reluctant cindy to keep studying each other's culture through flashcards to prepare for meeting and connecting with each other's families. it's sweet! it definitely makes sense where it's placed: Helen and Kevin establish the rules, but are more individually centered; Maurice really highlights relational dynamics, and Stanley highlights having none of that (lol). for a couple prone to anxiety and conflict (and regarding that, again: They Are Nurses Coming Off A Shift, So,) it makes sense for them to need examples and time before the decision, and the moment that's chosen is unique compared to the others because it's very mundane. it's just them going from tired to having fun and being in alignment. I do think it's also to clear the stage because they have nothing to learn or contribute to the following passengers, but their exit actually directly contributes to miguel's exit. okay it's starting to get slow when I scroll so I think I have to end the post here and continue with a pt 2

[ad_1] In the digital age, it is easy for businesses to focus solely on technology and online marketing tactics. However, referral marketing remains as one of the most effective ways to gain new customers and boost sales. Referral marketing can be defined as a strategy whereby a business promotes its products or services through word-of-mouth recommendations from satisfied customers. In this article, we will explore the reasons why referral marketing is the key to your business' success and provide some case studies to illustrate its effectiveness. 1. Builds Trust and Credibility According to Nielsen, 92% of consumers trust recommendations from family and friends over all other forms of advertising. When a person recommends a product or service to someone they know, they are putting their reputation on the line. This creates a level of trust and credibility between the person making the recommendation and the person receiving it. Consumers are more likely to trust and try out a product or service that has been recommended to them by someone they know and trust. One example of a successful referral marketing campaign is Dropbox, a cloud-based file storage service. In 2008, Dropbox launched a referral program that rewarded both the referrer and the new user with extra storage space. As a result, Dropbox's user base exploded from 100,000 to 4 million in just 15 months. 2. Cost-Effective Marketing Strategy Referral marketing is one of the most cost-effective marketing strategies available. Traditional marketing tactics such as radio and television ads, billboards, and direct mail can be expensive and may not have a high conversion rate. Referral marketing, on the other hand, relies on satisfied customers to spread the word about a business, making it a low-cost and high-impact tactic. Uber is an excellent example of a company that leveraged referral marketing to build its brand. In the early days of the company, Uber offered free rides to new users who signed up through a referral link. As a result, Uber's user base grew rapidly, and the company became a household name. 3. Increased Customer Loyalty and Lifetime Value According to a study by Wharton Business School, referred customers have a 16% higher lifetime value than non-referred customers. This is because referred customers tend to be more loyal and are more likely to make repeat purchases. When a customer is referred to a business by a friend or family member, they are more likely to feel a sense of loyalty and trust towards that business. Airbnb is a great example of a company that uses referrals to build customer loyalty. Airbnb's referral program incentivizes both the referrer and the new user with travel credits. By offering a reward to existing customers, Airbnb is not only encouraging referrals, but it's also showing its customers that it values their loyalty. 4. Provides Valuable Feedback When customers refer others to a business, they are essentially endorsing the product or service. This endorsement provides valuable feedback to the business on what it's doing right and what needs improvement. Referral marketing can help a business identify areas for improvement and make necessary changes to enhance the customer experience. Harry's, a men's grooming brand, uses referrals to collect feedback from its customers. Harry's referral program incentivizes existing customers to refer others by offering both parties a discount on their purchase. In doing so, Harry's not only gets new customers, but it also receives feedback from its existing customers on their product and user experience. In conclusion, referral marketing is a powerful and effective strategy that can help businesses build trust, increase customer loyalty, and boost sales. By providing a low-cost and high-impact marketing tactic, referral marketing should be an integral part of any business's marketing strategy. The case studies above illustrate how successful companies have used referral marketing to grow their customer base and build brand loyalty.

If your business is not yet leveraging referral marketing, it's time to start. [ad_2]

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! Eco-optimism, Saying No, Contracts

Tune in LIVE weekly to the upbeat, positive lifestyle broadcast where producer and host Cynthia Brian showcases strategies for success on StarStyle®-Be the Star You Are!®. Available wherever you listen to your favorite programs!

Did you know that 67% of Americans 18-23 years of age experience eco-anxiety which is a chronic fear of environmental cataclysm? With 2023 ranking as the hottest year on record with record-high temperatures since record-keeping began 150 years ago, it is no wonder that eco-anxiety is rising. We will focus on eco-optimism.

Do you say “yes” when you really want to say “no”? “No” is a complete sentence and it doesn’t always need an explanation. We don’t want to offend anyone, but as 2024 begins, let’s say “yes” to what’s important to us and say “no” to what’s not.

Contracts! Negotiating and signing an agreement causes stress and anxiety but if you understand your purpose and your rights, signing that document could be a life saver.

Did you know that over 50% of small businesses fail within the first five years? Small businesses are the backbone of the economy, but they often face significant challenges when it comes to growth and sustainability. One of the biggest obstacles that small businesses encounter is bottlenecks, which can prevent them from achieving their full potential. According to a recent study, 80% of small businesses fail within the first 18 months, and one of the main reasons for this is a lack of effective systems and processes. In this article, we will explore the concept of bottlenecks in small businesses and provide actionable recommendations to help entrepreneurs overcome them. Josh Long is an expert in helping small businesses overcome bottlenecks and achieve growth. He is the author of the book "Bottleneck Breakthrough" and has extensive experience in management, recruiting, and business development. He believes that identifying and addressing bottlenecks is the key to unlocking a small business's full potential and achieving sustainable growth. [powerpress] Subscribe Apple | Spotify | iHeart Radio | Amazon | Radio Public | Google Podcast Identifying Bottlenecks The first step in overcoming bottlenecks is to identify them. Bottlenecks can occur in any area of a small business, from marketing and sales to operations and finance. One common bottleneck is a lack of leads or customers, which can prevent a small business from generating revenue and growing. Another bottleneck is a lack of systems and processes, which can lead to inefficiencies and errors. Finally, a lack of qualified staff can also be a bottleneck, as it can prevent a small business from delivering high-quality products or services. Bottlenecks are constraints that limit a business's ability to grow and achieve its goals. Identifying bottlenecks is the first step in overcoming them. The top three bottlenecks that small businesses face are: 1. Time management 2. Hiring and retaining employees 3. Increasing profitability Actionable Recommendation: To identify bottlenecks in your small business, conduct a thorough analysis of your operations and processes. Look for areas where there are delays, errors, or inefficiencies. Talk to your staff and customers to get their feedback on what is working well and what needs improvement. Once you have identified the bottlenecks, prioritize them based on their impact on your business and develop a plan to address them. Error to Avoid: Don't assume that you know what the bottlenecks are without conducting a thorough analysis. It's easy to overlook bottlenecks that are hidden or not immediately apparent. Take the time to gather data and feedback before making any decisions. Overcoming Bottlenecks Once you have identified the bottlenecks in your small business, the next step is to overcome them. This can be a challenging process, but it's essential for achieving sustainable growth. One effective strategy is to implement systems and processes that streamline your operations and reduce errors. This can include automating tasks, creating checklists, and developing standard operating procedures. Another strategy is to hire qualified staff who can help you deliver high-quality products or services. This can include hiring specialists in marketing, sales, operations, or finance Actionable Recommendation: To overcome bottlenecks in your small business, focus on one bottleneck at a time. Develop a plan to address the bottleneck, and set specific goals and timelines for implementation. Monitor your progress and make adjustments as needed. Celebrate your successes along the way to keep your team motivated and engaged. Error to Avoid: Don't try to address all the bottlenecks at once. This can be overwhelming and lead to burnout. Focus on one bottleneck at a time and develop a plan that is realistic and achievable. Preventing Bottlenecks Preventing bottlenecks is an ongoing process that requires continuous improvement and innovation.

One effective strategy is to invest in technology that can automate tasks and streamline your operations. This can include customer relationship management (CRM) software, accounting software, and project management tools. Another strategy is to develop a culture of continuous improvement, where your team is encouraged to identify and address bottlenecks on an ongoing basis. Actionable Recommendation: To prevent bottlenecks in your small business, invest in technology that can automate tasks and streamline your operations. Develop a culture of continuous improvement by encouraging your team to identify and address bottlenecks on an ongoing basis. Provide training and resources to help your team develop the skills they need to be successful. Error to Avoid: Don't become complacent and assume that your systems and processes are perfect. There is always room for improvement, and it's essential to stay ahead of the curve by investing in technology and developing a culture of continuous improvement. In short, bottlenecks can be a significant obstacle for small businesses, but they can be overcome with the right strategies and mindset. By identifying bottlenecks, developing a plan to address them, and preventing them from occurring in the future, small businesses can achieve sustainable growth and success. Remember to focus on one bottleneck at a time, celebrate your successes, and continuously improve your systems and processes. With these strategies in place, small businesses can thrive and contribute to the economy for years to come. https://michaelnguyen.me/top-3-bottlenecks/?feed_id=259&_unique_id=64c4031f635ad

Can businesses survive without social media?

Yes, businesses can absolutely survive without social media. In fact, many businesses have done just that for years and have been very successful. 

Social media can be a powerful channel for businesses, allowing them to reach a much wider audience and build relationships with customers. It also provides a great platform for marketing and advertising, which can be incredibly helpful for growing a business. 

It's also a great way to measure customer sentiment, get feedback, and engage with customers in real-time. 

Do you know? as per Digital 2023 Global Overview Report by Meltwater and We Are Social’s study and research, 4.76 billion people across the world use social media regularly, with an average daily usage time of 2 hours and 31 minutes.

However, it's important to remember that social media isn't the only way to reach potential customers. Businesses can also use other methods such as traditional advertising, word of mouth, networking events, print advertising, radio and television commercials, and more. 

These methods may take more effort and money but they can be just as effective.

Another way businesses can survive without social media is by focusing on customer service and loyalty. Providing excellent customer service will ensure that your customers keep coming back for more. You could also offer loyalty programs or discounts to keep your customers engaged and happy.

Additionally, businesses don't necessarily need to be on every social media platform. It's important to focus on the ones that make the most sense for your business and target audience. 

It's also important to remember that social media takes time and effort, so if you don't have the resources or expertise to manage it properly, it may be better to focus on other areas of your business instead.

Businesses can also survive without social media by staying up to date with the latest industry trends. By staying informed on the latest news in your industry, you can create products and services that meet customer needs and remain competitive in the market.

Ultimately, it's up to each business to decide if social media is right for them. While it can be a great channel for many businesses and also cost-effective, it's not always necessary and there are plenty of other ways to get the word out about your business without relying on social media.

“By 2025, social shopping is set to become a $1.2 trillion channel. In 2022 alone, 98% of consumers planned on making at least one purchase on social media” – Sprout Social

My personal suggestion is, in today's digital age, using social media to reach potential customers in real time is a wise move, and establishing personal connections with them using this channel has never been simpler.

25 Influencer Marketing Stats You Need to Know in 2021

In the world of marketing, influencer marketing has become one of the most popular and effective strategies in recent years. And it’s no surprise why – according to a study by Mediakix, 92% of people say they trust recommendations from friends and family over any other form of advertising.

But what does that mean for your business? If you’re not already using influencers to help promote your brand or product, you’re missing out on a huge opportunity. To help you get started, we’ve put together a list of 25 essential influencer marketing stats that you need to know in 2021.

Influencer Marketing Stats You Need to Know in 2021

Influencer marketing is a hot topic in the marketing world, and for good reason. Influencer marketing can be extremely effective in promoting your brand or product, but only if done correctly. There are a few key influencer marketing stats you need to know in order to make sure your next campaign is successful.

First, it’s important to understand who your target audience is and what type of influencers they follow. Not all influencers are created equal, and you want to make sure you’re selecting ones that will actually appeal to your target consumers. Second, don’t forget that authenticity is key. Consumers can spot inauthenticity from a mile away, so make sure your selected influencers are passionate about your brand or product and genuinely believe in what you’re selling.

Finally, keep an eye on engagement rates. The number of likes and comments an influencer’s posts receive may not seem like the most important metric, but it actually gives you a good indication of how interested their followers are in what they have to say. If an influencer has high engagement rates, it means their followers are more likely to pay attention to any recommendations they make – including those for your products or services.

Keep these three Influencer Marketing Stats in mind when planning your next campaign for the best chance at success!

Top 10 Influencer Marketing Stats from 2020

As we move into a new decade, it’s important to take stock of the previous one and see how things have changed. Influencer marketing is one area that has seen significant growth in recent years, and 2020 was no exception. Here are 10 influencer marketing stats from 2020 that show just how big this industry has become:

1. There were over 15 million active influencers on Instagram in 2020, up from 8 million in 2019 (Hootsuite).

2. The average cost per post for an influencer with 1 million followers is $10,000 (Business Insider).

3. Influencer marketing spend is expected to reach $15 billion by 2022 ( Business Insider).

4. 70% of marketers say they plan to increase their influencer budget in 2021 (eMarketer).

5. 94% of marketers believe that influencer marketing is effective ( Social Media Today).

6. 78% of people say they trust online reviews from strangers as much as personal recommendations ( BrightLocal ).

7. 49% of consumers rely on influencers for product discovery ( McKinsey ).

8. 36% of marketers say they find it difficult to measure ROI from influencer campaigns ( AdWeek ).

9. Only 22% of brands feel they’re successfully measuring the ROI of their influencer campaigns ( eMarketer ).

10 . 92%of consumers trust earned media more than any other form advertising including paid media such as TV commercials or print ads( Nielson)

Why Influencer Marketing is Taking Over Traditional Advertising

As digital marketing evolves, so too does the landscape of traditional advertising. TV commercials, radio ads, and print advertisements are becoming less effective as consumers become more skeptical of marketing messages that are pushed at them from all angles. Instead, they’re turning to social media and other online channels to get their news and make purchase decisions.

One of the most important changes that’s happening is the rise of influencer marketing. Influencer marketing is a form of social media marketing in which brands collaborate with popular social media users to promote their products or services. The advantage of influencer marketing over traditional advertising is that it’s much more authentic and trustworthy. After all, if someone you follow on Instagram recommends a product, you’re far more likely to try it than if you saw the same product advertised on television.

There are plenty of other reasons why influencer marketing is taking over traditional advertising. For one thing, social media platforms like Instagram have made it easier than ever for people to connect with each other and share information about products and services they love. And as people spend more time online, they’re increasingly exposed to influencer content while scrolling through their feed—making it even harder for traditional ads to compete for attention (and clicks).

What’s more, influencer marketing campaigns tend to be much cheaper than major ad campaigns—yet they can still reach a wide audience thanks to platforms with millions of active users (like YouTube and Instagram). Plus, unlike traditional advertising methods like TV commercials or billboards, which can be ignored or easily forgotten about, influencers provide an ongoing relationship with their followers that keeps your brand top-of-mind long after the initial campaign has ended.

This has led to the rise of influencer marketing, which is when brands pay social media users to promote their products.

There are a few different ways that brands can work with influencers. The first is through sponsored posts, where the influencer simply posts about the product on their own page. The second is through giveaways, where the brand gives away products to the influencer’s followers in exchange for promotion. And finally, there are affiliate links, where the influencer includes a link to the product on their page and earns commission for every sale made through that link.

No matter which method they use, all brands need to be careful when working with influencers because there have been some high-profile scandals recently involving fake accounts and bots

25 Influencer Marketing Stats You Need to Know in 2021

In the world of marketing, influencer marketing has become one of the most popular and effective strategies in recent years. And it’s no surprise why – according to a study by Mediakix, 92% of people say they trust recommendations from friends and family over any other form of advertising.

But what does that mean for your business? If you’re not already using influencers to help promote your brand or product, you’re missing out on a huge opportunity. To help you get started, we’ve put together a list of 25 essential influencer marketing stats that you need to know in 2021.

Influencer Marketing Stats You Need to Know in 2021

Influencer marketing is a hot topic in the marketing world, and for good reason. Influencer marketing can be extremely effective in promoting your brand or product, but only if done correctly. There are a few key influencer marketing stats you need to know in order to make sure your next campaign is successful.

First, it’s important to understand who your target audience is and what type of influencers they follow. Not all influencers are created equal, and you want to make sure you’re selecting ones that will actually appeal to your target consumers. Second, don’t forget that authenticity is key. Consumers can spot inauthenticity from a mile away, so make sure your selected influencers are passionate about your brand or product and genuinely believe in what you’re selling.

Finally, keep an eye on engagement rates. The number of likes and comments an influencer’s posts receive may not seem like the most important metric, but it actually gives you a good indication of how interested their followers are in what they have to say. If an influencer has high engagement rates, it means their followers are more likely to pay attention to any recommendations they make – including those for your products or services.

Keep these three Influencer Marketing Stats in mind when planning your next campaign for the best chance at success!
