Micro-influencer

A micro-influencer is a creator with a small, loyal following in one topic, far smaller than a celebrity's.

Their followers trust them, and many charge little or will post in exchange for free product. Most focus on one niche, like running or home coffee, which helps a D2C brand reach the exact people who buy.

Contact 100 a day, the same way as a cold email: personal, short, one clear offer. Ask for honest posts, and reuse them as user-generated content and social proof on your site. Find micro-influencerssoon who already post about your problem.
