One survey (of over 3,000 marketing agencies and brands) found that 85.8% of respondents would be dedicating a budget to influencer marketing in 2024.
Brand ambassadors offer brands a cost-effective alternative to traditional advertising, allowing them to reach their target audiences and build more authentic, long-lasting connections.
-
Can anybody be a brand ambassador?
Anyone can be a brand ambassador! But, like any job, you do need certain skills and qualities to be successful. Authenticity – being transparent, genuine, and honest with your audience – is essential for brand ambassadors. Other key skills and qualities include:
- Knowing how to create high-quality, engaging content that’s tailored to your audience
- Being able to build relationships with your followers and potential brand partners
- Being familiar with major social media platforms and knowing how to use them effectively
- Understanding how to use metrics and analytics to measure success
- Being dependable, organized, and able to fulfill your commitments
-
How many followers do I need to be a brand ambassador?
You don’t need to be famous or have a huge social media following to find success as a brand ambassador. Follower count is an important metric, but it’s not the only one that brands consider. In fact, some brands even prefer to have ambassadors with smaller followings!
Different brands have different marketing goals. While some simply want to reach as many people as possible, others want to build authentic connections with people in a specific niche. Nano-influencers (those with 1–10K followers) and micro-influencers (10–50K followers) tend to have loyal and highly engaged audiences that they help brands tap into.
-
Do brand ambassadors get paid?
Absolutely! The exact terms depend on the brand in question. Many brand ambassadors are paid per activity – for example, receiving a fixed rate for each image or video post. Others will work on commission, earning a percentage of any sales made as a result of their content. And some will receive discounts or free products.
The exact amount brand ambassadors make varies depending on:- The type of content they create
- Their chosen platform
- Their industry or niche
- Their follower count and engagement rates
- The length of their contract
- Their expertise and experience level
-
Do brand ambassadors get free stuff?
Brand ambassadors often receive free products or services from brands they are promoting. This allows them to:
- Try out the product and share an authentic review with their audience
- Provide feedback to the brand on how they could improve
- Feature the product in their content
For brands, gifting is a cost-effective way to generate hype around a product, increase their visibility, and build relationships with ambassadors and customers.
-
What is the difference between a brand ambassador and an influencer?
Although the terms are often used interchangeably, there is a difference between a brand ambassador and an influencer.
Influencers typically work with brands on short-term campaigns. Their primary goal is to create buzz around a product or service during a promotional period. This can involve anything from creating a single post to publishing several weeks’ worth of content.
Brand ambassadors, by contrast, usually engage in long-term partnerships with brands. They might work with a brand for months or even years! Brand ambassadors often develop deeper connections with the brands they represent, becoming a spokesperson for their products, values, and mission.
