About this event
Our upcoming virtual event will look at the influencer marketing sector and the potential cross over it has with publishers and content creators.
We'll be joined by influencer marketing experts to share their thoughts from different perspectives.
The event has kindly been sponsored by TRIBE, allowing us to offer this as a free event to all.
A whistle stop tour of Hearst Content Agency’s strategic framework for influencer marketing. How we go about identifying who the best partner is and why. How influencer marketing is not a silo’d, social-only, tactic. Rather, it is a holistic part of the overall content strategy and ecosystem, and therefore why you need your content agency or team to be at the centre of activations. We’ll share some examples of our work with differing objectives; our strategy, planning and results.
