Manage episode 428398344 series 2931858
"It was clear that there was so much power in individuals banding together to do something."
Cooper Munroe is the CEO of The Motherhood, an influencer marketing agency founded in 2006, long before the term "influencer marketing" existed. Cooper shares the fascinating origin story of her agency, which emerged from a viral blog post during Hurricane Katrina relief efforts.
In this episode of Agency Journey, Cooper discusses the evolution of influencer marketing over the past 15+ years, from early "mommy blogs" to today's multi-billion dollar industry. She provides insights on best practices, untapped opportunities in regulated industries, and the importance of authenticity in influencer partnerships.
This conversation is valuable for agency leaders interested in the history and future of influencer marketing, as well as those looking to partner with specialized agencies to deliver these services.
Episode Insights:
💡 The power of authentic, user-generated content was evident even in the early days of blogging, before social media platforms existed.
💡 Influencer marketing has evolved from a one-off tactic to an integrated piece of the overall marketing strategy for many brands.
💡 Micro-influencers often deliver the best results due to high engagement and trust with their audiences.
💡 Authenticity is crucial - influencers must have a genuine affinity for the products or causes they promote.
💡 There are untapped opportunities for influencer marketing in highly regulated industries like pharma, healthcare, and finance, as well as in B2B sectors.
💡 Revisiting core questions like "Why do we exist?" and "How will we succeed?" is important for agency leaders, especially those who've pivoted or evolved their business models.
