The Lionize Platform:

The platform acts as a matchmaker and easy-to-use backend office for brands and agencies looking to partner with Creators. Yes, anyone can go online and figure out which Influencers have the largest followings, but that method of crowdsourcing has proven to be both inefficient and outdated. It’s all about finding the right Influencers that can share your story in an authentic way.

The most prominent Influencers are extremely expensive, and when you have a huge following, the connection to the audience is less intimate. The Lionize platform showcases and matches brands with Influencers of all sizes for a higher-quality reach. For example, someone with a million followers may have a broad reach. But how many authentic touches are you really going to get for your dollars? Are you cramming your product into places where they won't be appreciated, just for the visibility? The team found that using many Creators with smaller followings garner more attention than one Creator with a large following — because you are directly addressing the people that care most about your brand.

It’s easy to use. Marketers plug their requirements into Lionize, and they are matched with Influencers that fit the bill. As applications roll in, they can then choose the Creators who best match with their product/service, and the system handles all the management, including tracking, reporting, paying, reactivating, communication, reminders and everything in between.

A key difference is Lionize’s open network of Influencers that it sources from. Think of its search engine as a virtual recruiter that goes out to the ecosystem of social media to identify the right influencer for your brand. No more tapping into preexisting, oversaturated databases of over-used Creators that brand after brand is working with.

Austin, Co-founder, shared that “There is a use case for everyone. You just need to be creative with your strategy. For example, we work in wellness, fitness, cosmetics, beauty, consumer goods, food and beverage, services… all kinds of niche businesses. The idea is telling stories in an authentic way by getting a product or service in the hands of these passionate individuals. Then, let them vocalize their experience using it."

Time to Get Creative.

The right Micro-Influencers can help virtually any brand, because they are advocates for what brands do. For example, “one clever program revolved around a Type 1 Diabetes registry, finding a way to enhance the number of submissions. So we built a team of 100 plus Creators that have Type 1 Diabetes and developed a community revolving around their mission. There are a lot of angles you can take, whether it's a physical product, app, service or nonprofit looking to raise awareness or drive conversions. It’s all about implementing the right strategy to tell your brand's story in a creative, yet authentic way” said Austin.

Lionize and its team is there to make Influencer Marketing easy, and stand by your side throughout the piloting process. The Influencer market is set to grow from $14.27 billion to $143 billion by 2030. This form of marketing is not going away.
