Real influence matters
When influencers in marketing have a big follower count it means nothing if the followers don’t care about what’s being shared or if they’re irrelevant to your brand.
That’s why we don’t randomly match influencers to brands: we use data.
Shopping habits, family and lifestyle info, vehicle, banking and loyalty card details, and more
With over 144 data points on each Real Influencer and through our online quizzes we offer a continuous deep dive into consumer insights.
