Nano-influencers tend to have a smaller number of followers in comparison to micro-influencers, less than 1,000 followers.
A survey by Digiday reported that nano-influencers are able to engage up to 8.7 percent of their following while the engagement percentage of celebrity influencers, who have more than a million followers, is only 1.7 percent. Consumers are becoming âsmarterâ and can identify paid promotional content, which is often found in a well-established influencerâs feed. Nano-influencer's feeds arenât packed with paid promotions, [so] they provide a level of authenticity that you might not get with seasoned influencers.
As nano-influencers have previously never worked with brands before, they will likely demonstrate high-levels of commitment to ensure your brandâs product is well-represented. Theyâre typically excited to work with a brand for the first time and may over-deliver and give you more content options in exchange for the opportunity for their content to be shared.
They donât charge excessively high fees for sharing a promoted post in comparison to mainstream influencers. Along with the low cost, brands can use this to their advantage. Given the lower price point, brands could theoretically tap into a higher quantity of nano-influencers, each of whom can create and share their own content about the brand. In reaching out to more nano-influencers, brands stand a higher chance of increasing their engagement.
And finally, Nano-influencers arenât just cheaper, theyâre a better value for the money in the long-term, too. Along with the fact that millennials in particular âtrust their peers more than any other audience â like celebrities and media for example, working with 100 nano-influencers with a combined 1,000,000 audience reach can be far more effective, not to mention cheaper, than working with one influencer with the same audience figures.
