Should you hire an agent if you're an influencer?

[Chibson]

An upcoming influencer does not need an agent since he or she doesn't have much job schedules at the start of their career. As they advance, they can hire agents to help them with business deals.

Yeah, but sometimes agents are also important for upcoming influencers because they can help them sorce out for jobs. But since they do not have the money to pay such agents it is better for them to do it by themselves.

 

[Good-Person]

Sometimes the need to hire an agent as an influencer is good because he or she will be able to give you more connections which means more money. The agents will have proper knowledge of how to connect you with some good businesses.

There are many online affiliate marketers who tend to act as agents. They tend to promote products online and make money by promoting products on their blogs.

As a celebrity you might not have the time to manage all of your social media platforms especially when they have high rate of traffic in each of them, you would find it very hard to control.

To the best of my knowledge, I believe that it is only a few celebrities that actually handle their social media pages by themselves because they don't even have enough time to do other things that they need to do and not to talk about handling all the whole talk about them on most social media.

As an influencer, you don't even need to source out for jobs. Jobs would come to you at your level and as you grow, higher jobs would come. No big organization would give a marketing job to an upcoming influencer no matter who your agent is.

 

[Syldan]

I think it depends on the kind of influencer you are.

There is a high need for an influencer to need an agent because there are several roles which will be needed to be played by an agent such as signing of business and others.

You're right. But don't you think an agent will help to recommend good jobs to earn on influencer?. This is because someone who is getting started may actually not understand how the job works.

An agent can advise an influencer and negotiate well on behalf of an influencer, especially a new influencer. An agent can never find jobs for the influencer. It is the influencer's worth that give him or her jobs.

There are a lot of influencers presently, that is the reason why I say an agent can help to get a job for an influencer. The competition is much that is why an agent can negotiate prices and also bring jobs. But of course the value of an influencer matters a lot.

Above all, the value of an influencer is the most important. An agent cannot find and connect an influencer with jobs outside his or her value. The agent primarily works within your value range.

Of course, I know that the value of an influencer is the most important thing. Someone who has up to one million followers will always get many people who are ready to advertise their products on his or her page.
It cannot be compared to someone with 100,000 followers.

That's just the simple analogy. When you get to a certain level, an agent is a sure thing for you to have. As a beginner in the influencer industry, the best thing to do is to work on building your value and brand.

You're right, building value and reputation is the first thing you should be very much focused on if you want to become an influencer. It might actually take time but on the long run it is worth it.

 

[Danny4cash]

There is nothing wrong in looking for influencers to help you look for influencing jobs why you focus on what you are doing or you get more better at what you are doing.

It's actually a right thing to do. It's not easy to abaddon the job you're doing and be looking for new job that you're not certain that you'll get. However, the service of an agent is quite high.

 

[Ernestnari]

It would actually take time, sacrifice and efforts to create value as an influencer. More so in this times that the influencer industry is already becoming saturated. You need to have something special and unique about you.

 

[Syldan]

Well I think it depends.
It will be a good idea to have an agent which I believe there are alot of responsibility that will be required of him and give you the chance to focus on how to make yourself more famous.

 

[Chibson]

Yes, you need to be very creative if you want to become an influencer. Sometimes becoming controversial can also bring you to the limelight. Some people use controversy to gain attention.

Being controversial is another way of easily driving attention and popularity for yourself. With the attention, you turn them into fans and you are good to go.

controversial people always drives a lot of attention and they can easily turn that to a lot of money for themselves. Most of the people who trend on the internet use that strategy to get a lot of attention. They will also have a lot of haters as well.

The haters go to their page to rebuke them and insult them unknown to them that they are adding to the comment count. At the end of the day, a brand looks at number of comments and not types of comments.

Before you are going to be successful as an online influencer you are definitely going to work very hard in promoting your online image in such a way that you are going to be more credible to a lot of people.
