Introduction
Influencer marketing is one of today's largest marketing tactics. When brand leaders realized they could recruit highly-credible experts and opinion leaders to generate awareness and consideration for their businesses, most loved the idea and were quick to adopt it into their marketing mix.
And while in less than 10 years, investment into the channel has skyrocketed (it’s expected to reach $24 billion by the end of 2024), working with creators is not without its challenges, as many brands perceive a measurement and accountability gap.
These are legitimate concerns. Without the right technology, a marketer’s ability to measure business impact is very limited – needing to rely on activity and “soft” measures like impressions, likes, and shares – which, while important, don’t have a demonstrable tie to sales and profit.

This year's key challenge will be meeting the C-suite's demand for more accountability… influencers and agencies are going to have to shift from engagement metrics into outcome-based metrics.
