Influencer marketing is a relatively new format of advertising products and services. Popular social media figures are approached by firms and organizations that offer products and services in the social media player’s niche. The public influencer gets free products or items to use and a blog or a vlog mentions the product and the company, giving exposure of the organization directly to people who are interested in those sort of things. This creates a win-win situation for all.
Patron – Influencers And Firms
Patron is a Japanese startup that attempts to bring social media influencers and brands together. In the current scenario, brands spend a lot of time and resources searching for that perfect influencer to promote their products. Likewise, influencers are always in need of connecting with brands and firms to try out products, rate them and increase their following.
Patron solves the connectivity dilemma by creating a platform where both type of parties can connect, find the perfect influencer or brand, strike a deal and get right on to work. As a decentralized platform, Patron not only helps in connecting, but allows for easier, faster and secure transmission of any monetary involvement. The platform allows smart contracts so transactions are automated. The elimination of brokers and banks by the P2P network allows for forms to shell out lower volumes of money and influencers still reap higher profits. Patron will have a web based interface and a mobile application for ease of use.
Partnerships And Achievements
Patron is on a roll of connecting with people all around the world. The developers are themselves influencers and know that exposure and success is directly related to making the right connections. As such, they have made the following achievements:
