Tips For Engaging with Influencers in the Social Recruiting World

[Joywtseo421]

When it comes to engaging successfully with influencers, it's really not rocket science! People warm to people who are helpful, friendly, interested in you, who don't come across as self-centred, who actually make the effort to strike up a conversation. So here are some ideas of things you could try:

When you see these influencers writing articles and blogs, take a moment to post a comment with your own insights at the footer of their article. Share this content on social media and tag the influencer as the author and publicly acknowledge them.

When you see influencers sharing content via social media, try sharing it in turn south africa phone number library and including their social profile in your reshare so that you help raise their profile and so that they are aware you've shared their content.

Thank influencers whose tweets and content shares you've found to be interesting or helpful. Add your own observations when resharing to spark a conversation.

Introduce influencers to other knowledgeable people you think they should know and be connected to.

Be personable and enthusiastic in your dealings with them.

Notice that none of the above approaches involve you asking for the influencer's help, telling them about your services, suggesting to them social posts that they might like to share. In our experience, the best way to win influencers over is to help them without expecting anything in return. More often than not, you'll find your efforts are repaid by the influencer showing an interest in what you do and what you're sharing. But keep in mind that seeming desperate is never a trait that makes people warm to you!
