New Data Reveal That One-Third of Influencers Are Not Proactively Seeking Brand Deals, Despite Wanting Them
HypeAuditor, the leading AI-powered social media analytics solution for brands who want fair and transparent influencer marketing, has launched HypeAuditor for Influencers, a new platform which enables content creators to take greater control of brand partnerships and maximise content creation. The launch comes at a time when 94% of influencers want more social media partnerships with brands, but one-third of them (32%) are not doing anything about it, according to a recent survey carried out by HypeAuditor.
The survey which polled 500 content creators with over 1000 followers, also revealed that marketers are increasingly turning to influencer marketing to reach their audiences, despite budget cuts and the current economic landscape. According to the data, 46% of influencers have seen an increase in brand partnerships this year (2023) vs. 2022. It also reveals that more than a third (39%) of respondents noticed an increase in the amount paid by brands for sponsored posts.

- Automated Media Kits – an automated postcard containing an influencer’s promotional materials, including followers, engagement rate, average likes, average comments, rates and contact details.
- Key metrics – Influencers can track more than 35 different account metrics in order to maximise growth, including engagement rate, notable followers who have interacted, peer inspiration for examples of what is working from other accounts and charting information.
- Trending hashtags – Regular updates on trending hashtags in their markets and relevant topics to encourage influencers to stay ahead of trends and ensure their content is relevant.
Alexander Frolov, co-founder and CEO at HypeAuditor, said: “Despite its glamorous reputation, having a career as a content creator can be really tough. Only a very small percentage of influencers, often celebrities, can make a living from their social media accounts. HypeAuditor has made influencer marketing fair and transparent for brands since 2018, and now we’re revolutionising the industry for content creators, too. With HypeAuditor for Influencers, content creators can become much more proactive in securing brand partnerships, whilst maintaining their credibility and authenticity”.
