Influencer marketing:2019 and Beyond


It is fair to say that influencer marketing is a major part of promoting brands and projecting it to a greater mass through the followers of influencers. We can all trace the history of influencer marketing back to the time when it was first introduced or to when the term was first coined. But the real challenge is to see which way it is headed to. It has sure come a long way and has delivered to its fullest potential. In this article let us see where influencer marketing is headed to after all these years.



Let’s take a look at the present scenario of influencer marketing and how is it working to have a better understanding. It has been found in a study that 25% of influencers would reject an offer that has a strict and rigid contract. It goes without saying that in today’s digital world anyone with a fair number of followers is an influencer. Hence the scope for them is high this gives them the independence to accept offers according to their choice.

83% of brands are ready to increase their budget for influencer marketing. Yes! You read that right, that’s a staggering figure to give you an idea of how dominant is influencer marketing in the digital world. There are many brands spending a lot to get their desired of influencer who they think to can project their brand better even though that might exceed the budget but, they are ready to take that call because the influencer of their choice would make up for the extra allotted budget through ROI (Returns On Investment).

It is to be noted that 73% of brands check their appointed influencer’s audience health manually. it doesn’t matter if the brand has been able to establish its presence in the digital world, there’s always a scope of improvement. And the brands are now down to a cut-throat competition that requires them to be at their toes always. This gives rise to extra efforts such as checking manually the influencer’s audience strength and health.

These are just not facts about influencer marketing but these are the indicators indicating in which way marketing about influencers is heading. Don’t take these numbers just as digits, it shows the future of influencer marketing. It denotes that influencer marketing is gaining importance day by day and it doesn’t seem to just stop after appointing the influencer, now the companies have begun to monitor the influencer and are ready to take the next big step for influencers that are taking care of influencer’s followers. This goes on to show how the digital world has evolved into and how things are going to be in the future.

Epitome of Equality

First of all This is not to demean any religion.. I am a Hindu by birth, but yes I respect all religions .I offer my daily prayers , fast on holy days , but there was something that was disturbing me . God as per me was a Friend, someone who was by my side always , someone who was a dear friend , but this is not what everyone else thought , for others he was the Judge who gives his verdict always and punishes anyone and everyone . Walk into any temple and you would see , if you have money , you will be treated in a way as if you are the ONLY disciple of the God . I have had too many experiences where I was treated as a second class citizen in the temple . Why? Well I could not afford giving thousands as donation. This is not how it should be , God looks at each one of us with the same divinity .As I mentioned God for me is a friend, so tell me, do we chose friends based on their bank balances? Do we give our verdict on them ? then how can God do it? I know many of us would ...

"My cousin touched me there"

Note: When Tan suggested me to post this here...I gave it a thought. I felt he was right.  yeha I know in the election times ..people would be more inclined to politics. Well still..just give it a read :) For the first time when she came in I knew she is going to be one of my best pals. she was bubbly chirpy sociable and a caring human being.she was I felt my true copy. But what I felt wasn't true and I'd never known that trait of hers which never matched mine had such a reason behind it. She never liked to talk or be familiar to the opposite sex. I found this irritating but I just used to remember all her other traits which brought her close to me and made her one of the closest beings to me on this Earth. As she and I had got very close in friendship that we began sharing secrets which we never thought would come out of our mind. And I thought I understood her as I thought she was me. Then one day as we were alone in my room I asked her why she was so unfamiliar and irritat...

Does India need communal parties?

I think, it was Tan's post on this blog itself, Republic Day Event, where this question was raised. My answer. YES. we need communal parties even in Independent, Secular India. Now let me take you, back to events before 1947. When India was a colony of the British Empire. The congress party, in its attempt to gain momentum for the independence movement, heavily used Hinduism, an example of which is the famous Ganesh Utsav held in Mumbai every year. Who complains? No one. But at that time, due to various policies of the congress, Muslims started feeling alienated. Jinnah, in these times, got stubborn over the need of Pakistan and he did find a lot of supporters. Congress, up till late 1940's never got bothered by it. And why should we? Who complains? No one. But there were repercussions. The way people were butchered and slaughtered during that brief time when India got partitioned, was even worse than a civil war scenario. All in the name of religion. And there indeed was cr...
