Influencer Marketing in Russia

Influencer Marketing is a way to promote products and services through opinion leaders.

Many companies in Russia focus on this tool, because of the opportunity to reach out to the target audience.

Bloggers today are those people who are trusted in the media. They are listened to and their recommendations are followed.

Our work approach

We select a blogger and an audience. We select bloggers not on the basis of coverage and the number of subscribers, but based on the number of useful contacts that are maximally relevant for your target audience. We analyze the involvement of users, how often they comment and keep records. We analyze the blogger himself, how long he has keept his blog, how often he posts, and what are the dynamics of his project's growth.

Formats of cooperation with bloggers. We offer a wide range of interaction with bloggers: - Direct purchase of advertising - Native advertising - Carrying out of shares - Invitation to your company's events - Testing your product - Blog tours.

We know the features. We have our own control system. We severely weed out those who are engaged in cheating, who do not comply with the terms of the contract, who delay the deadline. We select only verified bloggers who showed results on other projects.

To attract a new audience to the product DRAKENSANG, by using new channels of promotion which had not been used before.

Solution: Organize a competition between popular Russian bloggers and launch viral marketing campaign. As the basis of the viral campaign we took so-called “let`s play” videos.

To create videos we employed popular Runet video bloggers: presenter of the popular show “I Like” and video blogger Sam Nickel (the man who touched thousands of breasts in the video with Vladimir Putin). The idea was to organize a battle between popular Runet video bloggers to determine the best “let`s play” maker.
