“Why over 100 customers trust us”
We started building our expertise in influencer marketing some time ago with our first campaigns and jobs. Today, we already have over 100 clients and campaigns, many of them in Cologne. Some of these campaigns we have even developed together with our customers.
Tip: As a specialized social media and performance marketing agency, we also manage more extensive performance campaigns for our clients, with higher adspends.

Influencer Marketing Cologne
Influencer Marketing – The Bascis: Influencers have a large number of followers on their channels. Brands can have that too, but brand channels only reach a fraction of the people influencers reach – who wants to see “ads”? Influencers often have a dedicated following that trusts them and views them as a credible source of information and recommendations. Influencers often have a specific niche or target audience that follows them. So by working with influencers, businesses can increase their reach and target their audience. This is how you achieve authentic attention for your Cologne brand.
With the right strategy, the reach also converts to the desired target. This can be information, ticket sellers, online stores.

Implementation: From plan to campaign
A successful influencer campaign usually requires several steps. First, relevant influencers must be carefully selected who fit the brand and target group. This is followed by negotiations with the influencers to clarify the terms of the collaboration and ensure that all parties are satisfied.
Local or national: strategy
Set clear goals for your advertising campaign in Cologne and define whether you want to advertise your business locally or nationally, for example for your e-commerce. To target your audience precisely, we can work with targeted ads and align them within X kilometer radius of your business. For example, if you only want to cover the Cologne city area, we can make sure your ads are only visible to people in that area. This way you can ensure that your advertising campaign reaches the right target group and brings you the success you want.
Concept, postings, reporting
Then follows the creation of the posts, which should meet the needs of the brand and the wishes of the influencers. This creative content is then coordinated with the influencers and released.
Once the posts have gone live, reporting takes place. Here, performance indicators are monitored to measure the success of the campaign and make adjustments if necessary. Reporting also includes evaluating the collaboration with influencers to gain valuable insights for future campaigns.

Reporting: success of a campaign
Metrics and Reporting – Good influencer marketing reporting for clients should include a variety of metrics that measure the success of the campaign and show the impact achieved on the target audience. These include:
Reach: How many people have seen the posts? Engagement rate: How many users have interacted with the posts (likes, comments, shares)? Conversions: How many users took an action as a result of the campaign (e.g. purchase completion, sign-up, download)? For most, the most important thing in measuring the success of an influencer campaign:
ROI: How much revenue was generated by the campaign in relation to the cost
Also:
Sentiment analysis: What was the feedback from the target group on the campaign (positive, neutral or negative)?
In addition, brand awareness: How has brand awareness improved as a result of the campaign? Influencer performance: How did the individual influencers perform within the campaign?
