Influencers or not, we need to talk

A very curious thing is happening to us, quite common in the ecommerce world and that friends in the sector have already told us that it would happen to us.

Every day we receive several messages, usually on instagram, from users who want to collaborate with us. The text usually goes like this: "Guys, I love your brand or your bags and I would like to do a collaboration with you."

The first message that came to us about the style moved us. It was something like, "look, we are interested in someone who is followed by a lot of people" Then we asked the user for the data and sent him our portfolios in case he wanted to create some content in his stories or on his platforms.

The truth is that the return of these promotions was very low, we hardly got any visits and, worst of all, we could not measure it . The little return seemed strange to us. In addition, on that date a documentary came into our hands in which they talked about how, fraudulently and using false profiles on Instagram, the H2H agency had turned an actress into a supposed influencer, you can see the video HERE , it makes you think yes . From that moment we decided to cut all these campaigns. We had no metrics, no data, no return, there was no point in continuing.

If we stick to the term influence, as Gaby Castellanos says: It is the ability to be able to influence (cause an effect) on some person or thing, managing to modify it.

The term influence does not discriminate volumes, what it enhances is the ability to influence one or more people.

And that is exactly what we want, influence, in the style of this story that you have told us: a group of friends where one of them has bought a bag and the whole group of friends has ended up buying one.

Obviously we believe in the content, and in the recommendations, we believe that the user can enjoy our product and recommend it to their contacts (whether 10 or 100,000), but we also believe that both parties should get involved and should make a profit if we win.

That is why we have raised a win-win by creating our own affiliate system .

We are going to reward those users, influencers or not, with €5 for each order that comes from their platforms, everything is measured through a personal link from where we can see how many people come to our website from your platform and how many orders we get from people who come from you.

We want that if you like our product and recommend it, you can earn money with it. It seems fair to us, if we win, you win.
