Who is Blogger / Internet Phenomenon?

In the decades with no presence of Internet Phenomena, we have been made familiar to the celebrities preferring to star in product and /or services marketing.   Though bearing too much advertising, making use of celebities was an influential and effective method. Despite the fact that celebrity-based marketing has still its relevance to businesses and their marketing strategies, a fresh instrument of marketing prevails.  That is Internet Phenomenon. Phenomena are not necessarily built upon advanced level of education, even they can be pupils / students. What matters here is that they are endowed with capacity to manage social media and to address to social targets. In recent years, we have started seeing the examples of Phenomena ranging from a very sophisticated cook, a well-travelled traveller, a fan of photography to a casual person that can use social media interaction succesfully in the same platform along with the beloved celebrities that have acquired recognition and popularity in society. How does Influencer Marketing impact upon brands?

90% of the share belongs to WOMM!

You might be puzzled by the term WOMM.  In definition, it is the abbreviation of the type of marketing called ‘word of mouth marketing’ . WOMM entails transmission of impression /experience of a specific good and /or service acquired by the users to those others consumers who have not been aware of it yet. As the consumers / users express their positive impressions of the abovementioned goods and /or services, this idea sharing crosses boundaries and reaches to much larger consumer groups via social media. Depending on the number of the followers to a certain social media account, here we denote to an internet phenomenon, the  interaction frequency and width are likely to increase. This sort of marketing method is preferable to other methods of marketing though it has been neglected for years.

Influencer Marketing helps brands to reach to those consumers who are almost inaccessible via traditional methods of communication such as TV, Newspaper, Banner or bulletin. This outreach service is made possible through internet directly. While brands address to certain groups through traditional methods, influencers disseminate their influence in a larger mass.
