Influencers are the Enterprise

Winfluence - The Influence Marketing Podcast

The influencer marketing landscape is big and ever-changing. You have huge agencies that with with big brands for big budgets. You have boutique firms and consultants that mix and match influencer approaches. You have niche players in the agency and software space that focus on micro and nano influencers. And at each of those tiers, you have speciality shops that are more like Hollywood entertainment production houses, video-only tools … Honestly, it’s a big mess.

The ever-changing landscape also impacts the power and effectiveness of creators. To many, the individual content creator is the television network of today. Each individual one their own enterprise with all the accouterments that go with that … staffs, budgets, egos.

One man who has seen all of it and continued to innovate and build solutions, both products and services, to address the needs of the industry is Joe Gagliese from Viral Nation. That firm has been around a while now and has grown considerably.

It bills itself as a global digital media innovation group that powers the social ecosystem through integrated solutions that align strategy, talent, media, and technology. Viral Nation includes full-service digital and social agency, VN Marketing; creator and athlete-influencer management agencies, VN Talent and VN Sports; and software division, VN Tech.

If you want something done with influencers, Viral Nation can probably do it. And Joe’s take on how we’re all doing what we’re doing is an interesting filter for what is and what may come.

I asked Joe to come on and talk to us about the landscape, the future, the opportunities and more. You’ll get to hear the conversation today on the show.
