What is a Micro Influencer?
As Influencer Marketing is gaining in popularity, the strategies behind marketing are also changing.

Thanks to this, they drive an extra high level of commitment and credibility in their niche. They are passionate about what they do and are seen as a very credible source when it comes to recommendations on what to buy. In addition, Micro Influencers often have a higher percentage of involvement than many larger Influencers have.
