Influncers are individuals who have the power to affect the purchasing decisions of others because of their authority, knowledge, position, or relationship with their audience.

This power comes from following in a distinct niche, with whom they actively share their passions, talents, and adventures with. Influencers create content that resonates with people and sparks connections and inevitably people look up to them to guide them with their decision making.
