How to go from 0 to $1M in 4 months with the use of creators

Taylor Lagace, Co-founder and Co-CEO of Kynship, joins the POD to give some insight on the marketing agency’s growth, content creative strategies for brands, and influencer marketing.

Kynship is an influencer marketing agency that has created tremendous growth for brands.

Taylor recognized that a no strings attached approach to influencer marketing is one of many effective creator strategies can save brands money but also attract growth

The approach consists of reaching out to a large number of influencers per month with no expectation of receiving product promotion and beginning organic growth from there.

Taylor recommends budgeting 2% of your annual revenue towards product seating over the course of the year.

Content is king, creative is everything

Kynship stands out as an advertising and marketing agency that specializes in influencer strategies

The brand fosters growth for businesses by implementing the power of influencers and allowing facebook to optimize creative content

Taylor recognizes the power of creative and treats it as part of the business model that should be reviewed and edited monthly.

The business additionally optimizes the influencer strategy for brands by pinpointing the creators generating the most attention and continuing to implement them as part of the marketing plan.

Taylor recommends looking back at every three months and analyze who the top performers were out of all the influencers that ended up posting free of cost

Stay tuned as Taylor discusses how Kynship uses influencer seeding and why having a human factor in creator marketing may lead to higher profits
