I’m not one to chase trends… but this one was too good to skip. Thanks for the inspiration, Cristina Vintimilla.


Propaganda I’m Not Falling For: Influencer Marketing Edition


👀 from the POV of a marketing expert who’s built these programs from the ground up.


- Influencer marketing is just a campaign play

→ It’s a brand growth engine when you build it right.


- We don’t need creators, we just need an owned social strategy

→ If vibes were a strategy, every brand would be winning.


- Just hire a junior to run the program. 

→ Cool, hand them $500K and hope for the best.


- We only want creators with 1M+ followers

→ Great, let me know when they actually convert.


- We want diversity, but let’s not be too niche

→ Translation: Performative inclusivity with a sprinkle of fear.


- If it didn’t go viral, it didn’t work

→ Influence compounds. But sure, chase the algorithm.
