Am I the only one that reads this and thinks how the future has become stupid? The term “influencer” is such an eye roll to me.

- always_good 8y agoThen what's a better word for it? They aren't celebrities. They aren't just people with a following or a popular channel. They are specifically people with a following that are successful at converting sales. Unless you have something interesting to say on the matter, I don't think this forum needs more "le wrong generation"[0] posts.

- thinkloop 8y agoYou're right but there is something funny about there being youtube influencer consultants and how not using them is "naive".
- manigandham 8y agoArtists, creators, chefs, bloggers, travel junkies, etc. Whatever it is that they actually do. You do not just become an "influencer", instead you gain influence by way of gaining a following for doing (and being good at) something. The term is definitely overloaded and mostly pointless now.
- orliesaurus 8y agoYou can call them whatever you like, if you dont want to eye roll, but the media calls them influencers!
