KOL promotion becomes the socialization marketing key point

AdMaster advertisers intention survey research shows that more than 80% of advertisers will increase social marketing investment in 2019 and the average increase in the budget of 21%.KOL promotion topped the list.Nowadays, mobile social network is full of people’s life. Stars and opinion leaders (KOL) are the main disseminators of commodity information, and the content they publish or cooperate directly affects consumers’ purchase decisions.Related to people’s various consumption behaviors of food, clothing, housing and entertainment, the corresponding brands in different vertical industries have increased the utilization rate of KOL significantly, and have chosen a richer way of “implantation” of content.

In addition to food, cosmetics and other industries with high purchase frequency and low unit price that have been mature in cooperation with KOL, automobile, luxury goods and other industries also begin to favor KOL promotion along with the extension of KOL’s influence on fans’ lifestyle.

KOL, like flowers of every kind are in bloom, influences consumers deeply in their own fields.There are both opportunities and challenges for advertisers.Advertising marketing has entered an unprecedented era of diversification and prosperity.Marketing threshold is lowered, advertising forms more diverse.At first glance, this looks like harmony.However, the new challenge is how to make accurate and effective delivery in the diversified choices for advertisers.

Where do we find KOL even though we all know KOL is good?What kind of KOL is appropriate?What is the cooperation price and way of KOL?These are the primary problems of communicating with a KOL in a single marketing campaign.

According to ‘the white paper of Chinese KOL marketing strategy’ released by iresearch in 2019, KOL marketing promotion has already broken the early one-to-one communication mode, showing a trend of putting matrix and complicated decision-making.

1. The value of KOL matrix becomes increasingly prominent, and the delivery mode tends to be aggregated and intelligent

Based on the background of the vertical development of KOL and the constant maturity of influencer marketing mode, the mainstream strategy of KOL marketing gradually transforms from single point operation to matrix linkage. From the deep cooperation mode of spokesmen in the early stage, to the multi-point distribution of KOL in the middle stage, to the current KOL matrix with organic linkage, the matrix effect of “1+1 > 2” becomes more and more prominent.

Therefore, the traditional cooperation model of direct communication with KOL is no longer applicable.KOL marketing will gradually usher in the aggregated delivery mode in the future. The KOL marketing of head service provider will continuously accumulate KOL resources and continuously build a one-stop delivery platform and technology to provide brand owners with more intelligent and efficient KOL selection and delivery services.

2. As the media environment becomes richer and more complex, media selection becomes more critical in KOL marketing

The key to traditional KOL marketing lies in the KOL itself. Choosing the right KOL is equivalent to finding the audience group behind it.With the emergence of new media, the marketing strategy of KOL becomes more and more complex. Even the same KOL has different characteristics and audiences in different media.

Therefore,the brand side in the future will only be half successful in selecting the right KOL in the process of KOL marketing.Media choice will be a key factor in the success of the other half, and it will play a more important role in the whole marketing decision.

Brand owners will face a more complex environment in KOL marketing. In addition to customizing the marketing form and content according to KOL’s personal Settings and characteristics, factors such as the characteristics of media and the differentiation characteristics of KOL in different media should also be fully considered.

To sum up, in the face of increasingly complex customer needs and diversified media choices, platforms with the ability to integrate social media commercial resources emerge.Brand cooperation with the platform directly becomes the first choice.

Why you need to choose a platform?

In this new media era, KOL helps brands establish shorter communication paths with consumers.The commercial value brought by social word-of-mouth fission will be far greater than that of traditional media.The future must be the efficient collaboration with KOL driven by technology to bring the communication effect of 1+1>N to the brand.Therefore, choose a trustworthy platform will make your brand communication effect with half the effort.
