Why I Created the Influencer Marketing Academy
 
As the Global VP of Customer Experience at a SaaS company, I’ve had the privilege of working with some of the world’s most prominent brands, helping them navigate the complex landscape of influencer marketing. My journey in this field began with an unforgettable campaign involving the Kardashians, which ignited my passion for the power of influencer marketing. It was long before anyone even called influencers 'influencers'. Since then, I’ve worked both in-house and agency-side, and now I'm on the tech side, whereassist brands in leveraging metrics to understand performance, and ROI in particular.
 
With a wealth of experience in influencer marketing, I’ve witnessed firsthand the transformative impact it can have on brands and individuals alike. My passion for helping people grow in their careers has been a driving force in my professional journey. The creator economy is booming, and I believe it will only continue to expand in the coming years.
 
The creator economy has seen exponential growth, with more individuals turning to content creation as a viable career path. This surge is driven by the democratization of platforms, where creators can reach global audiences and monetize their content. Brands increasingly recognize the value of partnering with influencers to reach targeted audiences authentically and engagingly.
 
Understanding how influencer marketing fits into the marketing mix is crucial for anyone looking to start a career in marketing. It offers unique opportunities to connect with audiences personally, build brand loyalty, and drive conversions. As traditional advertising becomes less effective, influencer marketing provides a more relatable and trusted approach to reaching consumers.
 
This is why I created the Influencer Marketing Academy. There aren't a ton of resources to teach people about all of the important things to do when you are starting out on an influencer marketing career. I wanted to provide a platform where aspiring marketers can learn, grow, and thrive in this dynamic industry. The academy is designed to equip individuals with the knowledge, skills, and tools they need to succeed in influencer marketing. Whether you’re just starting or looking to take your career to the next level, the Influencer Marketing Academy is here to support you every step of the way.
 
Join us on this exciting journey, and let’s shape the future of influencer marketing together.
