How to become an influencer

What is an influencer network?

According to Media Kix, an influencer network is a professional organization that seeks to manage influencers and facilitate influencer marketing collaborations between the platform and brands seeking to leverage an influencer’s audience.

In short, an influencer network is a middleman between the brand and the influencer.

Brands typically pay a monthly service fee to a designated influencer network to run campaigns and access their influencer database including influencer insights, engagements and past collaborations.

It is worth noting that each influencer network has its own criteria for whom they let join. This means that a minimum number of followers or blog views/visits are required before you have access to the network’s campaigns.

Why Should I join influencer networks?

If you’re looking to monetize your content or simply get your foot in the door as an influencer, joining an influencer network can help get you brand collaborations even if you just started you’re under 10K.
