Connect to Industry Influencers - Tips from Natalie Rose PR
As the pandemic continues to limit retail, companies that operate in the fashion and beauty industries are suffering losses of great length. While offline retail has been severely affected, online customer acquisition fails to compensate.
This is something Sheena from Natalie Rose PR knows all too well. Natalie Rose PR offers public relations services to brands in the fashion, beauty, lifestyle, and interior design genre and she has valuable tips for every designer who is struggling to generate awareness for their brand.
Partnering with Social Media Influencers
Influencer marketing has been extremely profitable for retail across the years. In fact, 70% of teens report that they trust influencers more than celebrities in their endorsements. That is because the rise of video and social media has facilitated the forming of connections. Now customers share experiences with each other in comments, product reviews, and services in their profiles. Furthermore, customers depend on the opinion of their peers to help them identify better offerings.
With 8 out of 10 buying a product after watching a content creator using it, the connection between genuine relations and sales is a powerful tool. This is something that brands try to tap into to get exposure and coverage from influential people in their industry. However, finding and nurturing these relationships can be a hard task.
The team at Natalie Rose PR has an extensive history in increasing brand awareness within the fashion and entertainment communities.
