👟 I've been thinking about the world of influencers lately. Having worked with a few in my time, it's easy to gauge when a partnership is built on authentic common ground vs when the motivation is a quick buck and the sparkle of a shiny post that gets lots of likes. Brands also need to realise that the majority of their customers (existing and potential) are pretty savvy too, and can quickly become skeptical when they can smell BS. Gone are the days of one-off product shout-outs. In 2024, the real magic in influencer marketing happens when brands and creators join forces for the long haul, building trust and delivering impact. This year’s influencer partnerships aren’t just campaigns—they’re stories that resonate. Take Nike and marathon legend Eliud Kipchoge. Their journey began in 2015, and it’s only grown stronger over time. Nike’s commitment to Kipchoge really took off with the Breaking2 project in 2017, where they teamed up for his historic attempt to break the two-hour marathon barrier. Since then, Kipchoge has continued to embody Nike’s values of pushing limits and staying focused, with every milestone building that trust and connection with his fans. It’s not just about the shoes - it’s about the grit, the journey, and a shared mission for health and endurance. This kind of partnership shows the power of connection and community. It’s authentic, it’s powerful, and it’s exactly what today’s audience is here for. Brands, are you ready to make real impact? This is the moment to think beyond the post and make your message last.👟 #brand #branding #brandpartnership #influencers #nike #EliudKipchoge #PR #publicity
