Influencers are individuals, often content creators, who have an extraordinary impact on other people, processes or brands. They can influence some business decisions or movements, purchases, ideas and their executions. Influencers also have a strong relationship with their audiences and are followed by many.

Celebrities:

A Celebrity usually is a public image and the statue of fame and broad public recognition. A person may attain a celebrity status from having great wealth, their participation in sports or the entertainment industry, their position as a political figure, or even from their connection to another celebrity.

Celebrities are born influencers. Their every step is watched by the media and followers, and brands make the most of it by encouraging celebrities to take part in product campaigns or use their social media profiles as an excellent product placement space.

1. SPONSORED ADS FOR BRANDS:

One of the most popular ideas is to offer advertising space for sponsored content. Sponsored content can be published in the way of a blog post (plain text full of photos, charts, infographics or animations – however, what brands choose the most is a blog post with pictures) or a piece of video content. The celebrity or influencer signs up a contract with the brand, which includes publishing just a single post or a series of posts. Sponsored content on their pages can also be ordered in the form of clickable banners redirecting to a selected website.
