Responsible Influencer Marketing

Influencer marketing continues to grow across media channels, but how can you ensure that your content is up to standard and within advertising best practice?

This nano course, presented in partnership with the Advertising Regulatory Board (ARB), unpacks what responsible influencer marketing involves. You’ll explore key topics such as the difference between paid-for and not-paid-for communication (and its implications for the influencer), the impact of the ARB on influencers, relevant regulations like the Code of Advertising Practice, and the ARB’s responsible influencer programme.

“Absolutely loved my Red & Yellow online course! I did it all the way from the Netherlands while working full time so it’s definitely possible to do it in between your normal tasks. The team is super supportive and understanding if you need more time to complete specific assignments. Would definitely recommend!”

Digital marketing is powerful in two fundamental ways. Firstly, the audience can be segmented very precisely, even down to factors like current location and recent brand interactions, which means that messages can (and must) be personalised and tailored for them. 

Secondly, the digital sphere is almost completely measurable. Every minute and every click by a customer can be accounted for. In digital marketing, you can see exactly how various campaigns are performing, which channels bring the most benefit, and where your efforts are best focused. Cumulatively, access to data that measures the whole customer experience should lead to data-driven decision making.

Digital marketing is a two-way communication between the brand and the customer, providing the business with valuable data that it can use to inform better product and service design. The affordances of digital go beyond traditional modes of advertising and marketing. As well as information, digital marketing affords community, connection, feedback, and convenience. This makes digital marketing a powerful tool, if used properly.
