Takeaway: Influencer Marketing is Here To Stay

The acceleration of how-to and review videos, largely led by Tiktok and its massive influence, has shed light that influencer marketing is and should be part of brands’ marketing strategies. Nearly 75% of US marketers will tap into influencer marketing in 2022, with that share expected to increase YoY into 2025:
