Social Audio Gets Competitive

There have been a lot of developments in terms of new platforms in the social audio space. It’s getting a little competitive, which I love. I think it’s so cool. I mean, let’s think back when TikTok came on the scene, no longer musically and has legitimately changed social media, possibly forever. It’s the coolest thing. I love seeing somebody come out the gates and sort of like kick everybody in the rear end to get their act together. I think it’s wonderful to have competition. And it’s doing nobody favors to have Instagram and YouTube just be like the top two and such a monopoly.

Instagram Shares Its Secrets

First and foremost, definitely make sure that you’re following at creator on Instagram. I love that they don’t refer to them as influencers but they are creators of good choice, Instagram. And they went live on three separate days, three separate conversations and really had a level of transparency that I have not seen Instagram share and maybe ever. And so I’ve had subsequent conversations with people about like, what’s that all about?

Influencer Tech Predictions

Today we are chatting with Brit Starr, who’s the SVP at Tribe Dynamics, and she’s actually been with them for about four years now. So Tribe Dynamics, they’re the most comprehensive influencer marketing analytics platform for iconic lifestyle brands. They’ve worked with the likes of Gucci, Benefit, ColourPop, boohoo, Sephora. And what I actually find pretty unique about them on G2, a really cool website, they were voted the number one easiest to use influencer marketing platform. I appreciate that on their website, when you check it out, it really is all about the analytics, and we dive into that in today’s conversation. But anyways, a little bit more about Brit. One of the fun facts about her is that she hosts workshops for leadership and management teams at brands of all different sizes. And she actually said this was her favorite part of her job. And you’ll definitely get a sense of that as you listen to this week’s chat.

Everything Influencer Management

So you’re going to hear from the women behind Shine Influencers today. Emily and Jess are incredible. There are a lot of management companies out there. Every company is going to take a different approach to management. If you’ve been listening to our podcast for a while, you know management is my entryway point into influencer marketing. I have a lot of opinions on how to manage influencers, how to manage an agency (since I had my own), and I can honestly say that I have so much respect for the way that Shine is running their agency.

Is the NYT Right About Fohr’s AMP

This is going to be a particularly interesting post. So as a little bit of backstory, we were doing a Clubhouse room about two weeks ago from when this episode is going live called Breaking News in Influencer Marketing. We had a great panel, we always do. We were talking about newsworthy topics from the last week or so. One of the topics was this New York Times article that came out about Fohr, and about one of their newest offerings. There was certainly commentary about all of it and there were questions (and there were pretty strong opinions). That’s what WIIM is most known for: opinionated women. So I love it. I love it all.

Stop Being Lazy

It’s a new week and my dirty little secret is that I actually took last week off. Basically the whole week. A good solid four days of five. Do I sound refreshed? Do I sound different? I hope I do, I hope that my little wrinkles have gone away. I hope my couple gray hairs have faded. Probably not but a girl can dream!
