Influencer marketing is on the rise, with every other marketer now trying to leverage the option to advantage.

But it is not always easy to find the right influencers of relevance to your brand - and even when you do find the good ones, it is another thing altogether to get them to work for you.

Of course, there are influencers who will simply work with any brand for money or free products, but the good ones think beyond compensation, and also care about what brands they decide to work with.
