The New Theory of Influence>
Based on Robert Cialdini’s “Influence: Science & Practice”
What Drives Influence?>
If other people ‘like her’ ask her to try a product, she will
Even ‘strangers with authority’ matter to us
Exclusive opportunities (product offers, events) drive action
Liking Authority Scarcity
If brands offer some value to influencers, they reciprocate
People want to remain consistent with a public commitment
If other women ‘like her’ use a product, she will try it
Reciprocity Consistency Social Proof
Influence to Word of Mouth>
Almost every act an influencer can take online via social media results in some form of ‘word of mouth’
How can we spark ‘word of mouth’ around brands AND drive action?
7 Drivers of Word of Mouth>
01. Do we have a good story?
02. Can people SHOW their involvement in a visible way?
03. Do we offer something new to talk about?
04. Do we let our supporters be creative?
05. Do we invite people to participate?
06. Do we offer them some value?
07. Do we remind people to spread the word?
