That’s according to new research from Cassandra, the insights and cultural strategy group, which asked over 1,000 US and 500 UK young shoppers about their preferences. Around 85% of respondents said they wanted to follow influencers who were trying to make the world a better place. “Young consumers want to follow influencers who are relatable, who don’t act like influencers and who fit seamlessly into the social bubble they’ve curated on their feeds,” said Kathy Sheehan, Senior Vice President of Cassandra. “This is important knowledge for brands to understand when deciding to partner with an influencer as well as creating their brand’s online social media persona: be a friend, not a salesperson, and create content that fits within the context of the digital communities you want your brand to have influence over.” When it comes to the categories that attract the highest conversions, Cassandra found that 79% of consumers who followed beauty influencers were more likely to make a purchase in the same categories. Meanwhile, 63% in the book category and 60% in interior design made a purchase. TV (47%) and cooking (47%) attracted some of the lowest scores in terms of conversions based on influencer posts. “Everyone is talking about influencers today, but understanding ROI remains a grey area in the space,” said Kathy Sheehan. “What I find interesting about our most recent findings is that we were able to correlate where the conversations are having an actual impact and driving purchase among Gen Zs and Millennials.” Tweet3 Share Share TikTok in China (Douyin) adds payment option Anne Freer | January 20, 2021 App Business Snapchat launches video takeover ad option Anne Freer | January 20, 2021 App Business LinkedIn adds links to Stories on mobile app Anne Freer | January 20, 2021 App Business 68% of US marketers to work with influencers in 2021 Anne Freer | January 19, 2021 Influencer Changes to Apple IDFA and IP-based games shaping mobile app market 2021 Anne Freer | January 19, 2021 App Business - Advertisement - [svg%3E] [BOA-IDFA-Banner-3.gif] – Advertisement – [svg%3E] [AA-BoA-Banner_1_300x250.png] Top App Developers * Orangesoft Orangesoft Orangesoft We build mobile & web apps that people love * Light IT Light IT Light ITReliable technical partner for more than 500 companies since 2006 * Alphonic Network Solutions Alphonic Network Solutions Alphonic Network Solutions Lets Grow Together * Sonin Sonin SoninA Decade of Award-Winning Apps * Konstant Infosolutions Konstant Infosolutions Konstant InfosolutionsTop Mobile App Development Company * Netsells Netsells NetsellsBuilding Something Better * Promatics Promatics PromaticsTop Rated Mobile App Development Company See all in App Developers [svg%3E] [APSL21-1140X370.001.jpeg.jpg] By signing up you agree to our privacy policy.
