Building trust in healthcare: what if it came down to influence marketing?

Influence marketing is a form of marketing that involves collaborating with influential individuals on social media to promote a product, brand, or service. These influential individuals, known as “influencers,” typically have a large and engaged following.

Influence marketing often involves providing benefits or compensation to influencers in exchange for their promotion. This strategy can take many forms, including sponsored social media posts, reviews, demonstration videos, collaborations, and long-term partnerships.

The advantage of influence marketing is that it allows brands to reach their target audience in an authentic and credible way by leveraging the trust and influence of the people this audience follows and admires. However, it is important to select influencers carefully, considering both their alignment with the brand’s values and the relevance of their audience to the target market.

Increasingly popular, influence marketing is becoming an essential channel in every digital strategy yet transparency and authenticity remain critical, especially in the healthcare sector.

Influence marketing in the healthcare field is an emerging practice that has been reshaping the rules, especially since COVID.
