What do you do if your audience is unhappy with your influencer marketing content?

Wir k?nnen nur effektive Inhalte teilen, wenn wir die Bedenken unserer Zielgruppe ernst nehmen und in unsere Arbeit integrieren. Es ist wichtig, die Kritik anzuerkennen und authentisch damit umzugehen. Denn letztendlich k?nnen unterschiedliche Meinungen uns dabei helfen, uns zu verbessern und eine vielf?ltigere Perspektive einzunehmen. Transparenz und offene Kommunikation sind dabei entscheidend, um Kritik konstruktiv zu nutzen und sie in positive Ver?nderungen umzuwandeln. Indem wir zeigen, dass wir die Anliegen unseres Publikums ernst nehmen und bereit sind, zuzuh?ren und zu handeln, k?nnen wir uns als vertrauenswürdigen und respektvollen Partner positionieren.

If faced with audience dissatisfaction with influencer marketing content, It is important to prioritize listening carefully to their feedback and collaborating closely with influencers to implement necessary adjustments. I strongly advocate for selecting influencers who authentically resonate with a brand's audience, valuing authenticity over mere popularity. This genuine connection cultivates trust and credibility, resulting in more impactful campaigns.

The audience won't always get the objective or vision right out of the gate, it's part of the process to help the influencers how to communicate the ''why'' the brand is cooperating with said influencer. Including the reason why you accepted to host that sponsorship is key to get your audience's buy-in!

If your audience is unhappy with your influencer marketing content, listen to their feedback, collaborate with the influencer to make necessary changes, and be transparent about the adjustments made. Monitor audience reactions and engagement to gauge effectiveness and refine as needed to rebuild trust and strengthen relationships.

Promptly addressing audience dissatisfaction with influencer marketing content is crucial. By listening to feedback, adjusting content, and communicating openly, you can rebuild trust and enhance future efforts. - Actively listen to audience feedback and address concerns. - Sincerely apologize if content has upset or offended your audience. - Thoroughly evaluate content for improvement opportunities. - Adjust content to address audience concerns. - Transparently communicate changes to your audience. - Engage directly with your audience to understand their perspective. - Learn from the experience to refine your influencer marketing strategy.

Das Feedback unseres Publikum zu analysieren und es in positive Ver?nderungen umzuwandeln erfordert Zeit und Teamarbeit. Indem wir diese Muster identifizieren, k?nnen wir eine gezielte Strategie entwickeln, um auf die Unzufriedenheit zu reagieren und unsere Inhalte zu verbessern. Selbst wenn wir nicht sofortige Verbesserungen sehen, ist es wichtig, weiter zu experimentieren und zu lernen. Denn jeder Schritt in Richtung Verbesserung tr?gt dazu bei, eine st?rkere Bindung zu unserer Zielgruppe aufzubauen und unsere Marke weiterzuentwickeln.

Once you've acknowledged feedback, it's important to dig deeper. Try to figure out what exactly is bothering your audience. Are they unhappy about the product, how the influencer talked about it, or something else? Understanding this helps us know how to respond. Look for common or specific issues in the feedback. Sometimes it's just a simple misunderstanding that needs clearing up. Other times, it might mean we need to change our strategy. Either way, analyzing feedback helps us find the real problem so we can fix it.

Speaking out of experience, after analysing feedback, take some time off to collect yourself and script out your content (for better execution) and always give your own twist to it (for authenticity), it could amplify with better ideas resulting in better engagement and hence, better brand deals. If not, you have a lot to explore and learn till you find what works for you!

Analyze Feedback: Carefully analyze the feedback to understand the specific reasons why the audience is unhappy with the content.

Assuming audiences aren't vibing with a collab won't help current or future strategies. Look at the data. Check beyond your own channels if you can (social listening tools and influencers tools like Kolsquare help with this). Find out what isn't resonating with them. Maybe the influencer is a bad brand fit, maybe you chose someone who has a lot of followers but not a lot of engagement.

I've seen this happen a lot of times with influencers I use to manage. If they feel you are being a sellout and just promoting anything, it's not a good look nor does it build good loyalty among your audience. The best way to avoid negativity regarding the brands you promote is to ensure the product or service you are promoting actually resonates with your Target demographic.

Es ist entscheidend, direkt auf Feedback zu reagieren, besonders wenn es negativ ist. Durch das Beantworten von Kommentaren und Nachrichten zeigen Sie Ihrem Publikum, dass ihre Zufriedenheit für Sie von h?chster Bedeutung ist und das sie mit ihren Bedenken nicht alleine sind, sondern einen Ansprechpartner an ihrer Seite haben. Dieses direkte Engagement kann dazu beitragen, den negativen Eindruck zu mildern und gleichzeitig zu verdeutlichen, dass Ihre Marke weit mehr ist als nur ein Name auf dem Markt.

Even when you get negative feedback, deal with it by engaging directly with the audience. This will show your commitment, help add a personal touch and also prove that you are not just another brand looking for sales.

Join the conversation in a healthy and constructive way. Remain empathetic and be grateful that you get a chance to comprehend and understand all perspectives. Ask if those responding negatively can elaborate on what it is they can’t get behind, if it’s not already obvious by their remarks. Understand how the content is positioned, understand the current climate as a world at the time and always default back to the brand’s values and goals of the campaign. What do you need to improve and optimize? What can you learn from this experience? Be accountable.

Engaging directly is crucial, especially when facing negative feedback. Responding to comments and messages shows your audience you care about their satisfaction. It's a good idea to involve the influencer too, as it adds a personal touch and demonstrates their commitment to resolving issues.

To adjust your strategy and make it easier, engage with your audience, for eg: on Instagram, do an AMA story (ask me anything) and answer it live, people love seeing raw responses and it helps them engage better with you. And nothing ever helps you better with talking to your own audiences and getting a closer look on how they think. Try live videos, read comments, DMs and be more active.

It's important to note that you're not just a marketing vehicle to pander products. If you're a content creator, the first focus should be building community through valuable content and engaging with the audience accordingly. Build trust with your audience to show you care about what you're doing. With quality content and a genuine connection, you will be more judicious about partnerships you take on and not drown your audience in brand promos. Also, slow down the brand process, work with the brand on creative ideas that go beyond their prescriptive brief. Find out how to engage YOUR audience based on the trust you've nurtured.

Keep creating the content that best represents yourself, your brand, and business. If the audience is unhappy with it, that’s not your audience.

Geben Sie Ihrem Publikum die M?glichkeit, direkt mit Ihnen in Kontakt zu treten und ihren Stimmen Geh?r zu verleihen. Live-Videos und Umfragen bieten sich dafür besonders an. Seien Sie aktiv in Nachrichten und Kommentaren, denn direkte Kommunikation erm?glicht es Ihnen, Kritik besser zu verstehen und sie in konkrete Ma?nahmen umzusetzen. Indem Sie auf diese Weise auf die Bedürfnisse und Wünsche Ihres Publikums eingehen, st?rken Sie nicht nur die Bindung, sondern optimieren auch Ihre Marketingstrategie für bessere Ergebnisse.

If your audience isn't happy with your influencer marketing content- a) Acknowledge their concerns to show you're listening. b) Analyze feedback to understand what's bothering them. c) Engage directly by responding to comments and messages. d) Adjust your strategy based on their feedback. Always remember that by doing these things, you can address dissatisfaction and keep your audience engaged.

Eine klare Kommunikation ist der Schlüssel, um Missverst?ndnisse aus dem Weg zu r?umen. Seien Sie proaktiv, gehen Sie auf die Bedenken Ihres Publikums ein und bieten Sie zus?tzliche Informationen an, um ihnen zu helfen, das Produkt oder die Kampagne besser zu verstehen. Durch diesen transparenten Ansatz k?nnen Sie nicht nur alle Unklarheiten beseitigen, sondern auch eine st?rkere Bindung zu Ihrem Publikum aufbauen.

Educating your audience about the product or campaign can help address their concerns and strengthen relationships with your brand and the influencer.

Your audience might not be happy because of a lack of understanding too. Educate them, address their doubts, provide them with extra information that might be important for them and build a genuine relationship in the process.

When working with influencers or brands, make sure to keep the content authentic. Making an influencer make a blunt product video which isn't their tone can result in poor engagement and overall lesser reach. Instead, sell content(and not your product), keep the tone similar and always make sure to give the influencer the freedom market YOUR product they want to, they know what their audience likes. I often see brands trying to use their platform to sell their product. But the audiences will scroll in 0.2secs for a heavily sponsored piece like that. Always indirectly market product and market content only for awareness and community, not for conversions.

Educate Your Audience: Educate your audience about the value and relevance of the influencer marketing content, addressing any misconceptions or concerns they may have.

It can be scary to move forward after negative feedback from your audience, but use this time to slowly build trust again. Be intentional with all communication (using what you've learned while analyzing feedback), and start small as you implement the new strategy. Depending on your brand's personality, you can use the situation as a funny anecdote in your content, showing the audience that you acknowledge your mistakes but are ready to move forward with them.

In the end, you aren't in the game to please everyone. It would be nice to be please everyone but not everyone is going to be satisfied. Take a look at the majority, was your impact great? Let that determine things, nothing more.

Move Forward: Implement the necessary changes and improvements to your influencer marketing content and strategy, and continue to engage with your audience to build trust and satisfaction.

Sometimes, even these bad situations can be used as learning experiences. I once worked on a campaign where I signed a bunch of highly engaged influencers with smaller audiences. My boss picked influencers with massive audiences but not great ERs. At the end of the day, the smaller accounts outperformed the others by 10x based on the KPIs we set aside. We learned that next time, we didn't need to seek large audiences neccessarily, that a lot of smaller creator accounts could generate even more of what we needed.

Analyze where did we go wrong and fix the problem area and prepare for another campaign after some time. Since the campaign could fail for ‘n’ number of reasons. However, we have to establish certain agendas while executing.

Seed comments in your support saying this is such a kick-ass campaign. Pay a few Linkedin influencers and top voices, who'll convey how it was pathbreaking, never-seen-before, and helped reshape the way influencer marketing was perceived. Furthermore, pay a few Media Houses and get yourself a 'Campaign of the year' types award. Easy!

I agree with all the points in this article. Many steps can be taken AFTER you realize there is audience dissatisfaction. But, building influencer marketing content requires a strategic and empathetic approach, and that work could be done BEFORE choosing an Influencer to represent your brand. You know best how you want your brand to be perceived by the world and what messaging has or hasn't worked before. These things should be taken into consideration while you are searching for an influencer or brand ambassador. You should consider the influencer's tone, original content, audience, and reputation in the market...etc. I would rather build the content strategy in-house and THEN search for the influencer best-suited to collaborate.
