AIfluence is a digital media platform for brands and advertisers to connect with influencers to drive awareness, engagement and sales. We believe that influencing is an outcome. We find ordinary people who feel connected to your campaign and we empower them to share your messages in their own, unique style in any language, any country, and at any scale. The effect is that tens, hundreds and thousands of ordinary people mobilize to do extraordinary things for your brand. We’re the best way for brands to find authentic micro and nano influencers. By using our platform and services you can get more reach, more engagement, generate more sales and gain more customers than ever before. AIfluence solves the major pain point experienced by most marketers by accurately predicting and delivering measurable advertising ROI on every campaign. We don't believe in Influencer databases that force fit/match them to your brand. Instead we have an ‘audience-first-always’ philosophy. So we want you to think about your audience first: Who are they? Where do they hang out? What do they like? We have the ability to find the right influencer networks based on your target audience, not just the number of followers they have. This gives you campaign results that are more relevant and cost-effective. Our growing team is currently based in Kenya, South Africa & India.
