However, to hit your marketing and sales goals, you need brand-fit influencers who promote your product in an authentic way and resonate with your target audience. So, before you kick off your search, you need to be crystal clear on <em>who your audience is. <\/em>Then, you can think about<em> who they are likely to be influenced by.<\/em><\/p>\n\n<p>Consider carefully who buys your products. What traits and demographics do they have in common? Going through your company\u2019s CRM data and looking at your followers on social media will give you a good idea of who to focus on.<\/p>\n\n<p>You don\u2019t need to know everything. But you should have an understanding of basic traits your target audience shares, such as:<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Location<\/li>\n\n<li>Age<\/li>\n\n<li>Interests (e.g. skincare, traveling)<\/li>\n\n<li>Values (e.g. sustainability)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p><br \/>Once you\u2019re ready and know what to look for, let\u2019s dive into the best ways of searching for influencers.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The 10 Best Ways to Find Influencers<br \/><br \/><\/h2>\n\n<p>There are many ways to search for and find influencers, including:<br \/><br \/><\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Storyclash AI Influencer search<\/li>\n\n<li>Storyclash Influencer Discovery<\/li>\n\n<li>Social media research<\/li>\n\n<li>Competitor analysis<\/li>\n\n<li>Your network<\/li>\n\n<li>Agency\u00a0<\/li>\n\n<li>Lookalikes<\/li>\n\n<li>Personalized recommendations\u00a0<\/li>\n\n<li>Google\u00a0<\/li>\n\n<li>Industry events<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p><br \/>Let\u2019s take a look at these methods in detail.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>1.

It\u2019s easier to use a tool, so you can filter directly according to account size and location, for example, rather than doing all the legwork yourself.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n<p>Another big downside is that the search is limited to the hashtags an influencer has used. So, if you\u2019re looking for a red-haired influencer, and she hasn\u2019t used the hashtag #redhair to describe her posts, you\u2019ll miss her.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n<p>That said, searching for influencers directly on social media can work and while it\u2019s not the most sophisticated method, we\u2019ve all got to start somewhere!<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u00a0<\/h3>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>4.

Brand fit is more important. You should focus on finding influencers whose content and values aligns with yours. We call this <em>content-based influencer discovery<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n<p>To identify influencers who produce top-tier content, share your brand ethos, and resonate with your desired audience, content-based discovery is essential.<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Evaluate influencers\u2019 content carefully<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>An influencer might have a large following, but it&#8217;s important to gauge how well their content aligns with your brand&#8217;s values and message. Scrutinize their posts, captions, and interactions to verify authenticity and alignment.<\/p>\n\n<p>80% of brand mentions on Instagram happen on stories. On average an influencer posts 11 stories per day! So don\u2019t forget to check previous stories that your influencer has posted. Storyclash offers a specific functionality for saving Instagram stories after they expire, since Instagram stories disappear from the platform after 24 hours.<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Choose diverse influencers<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>Prioritize diversity and inclusivity when selecting influencers. Representing a range of backgrounds and perspectives can broaden your brand&#8217;s reach and appeal.<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Offer a long-term collaboration<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>Many popular influencers work exclusively with brands offering a long-term collaboration. This is actually better for brands as well, since an influencer\u2019s followers are more likely to purchase from you if they have been exposed to your brand more than once.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to find influencers with AI<\/h2>\n\n<p>As brands find themselves trying to do more with less resources, AI technology represents a handy way to save time and make the influencer discovery process more efficient.<\/p>\n\n<p>\u00a0Storyclash harnesses OpenAI&#8217;s machine learning model to find brand-fit creators.
