Influencer Marketing

More and more First Coast businesses are turning to so-called social media “influencers” to help them promote their brands and products… and that means more opportunity for enterprising social media users.

Amy West is President of North Florida Influencers, a for-profit network of more than 160 influencers regionally - and growing. She joined us to explain why this type of marketing is such an effective way to reach potential customers.
