The Best Food Influencer on Social Media!

Influencer marketing and food influencers

‍

Every content creator has a level of expertise in a specific field. They share their tips, best practices, and experience with their audience. Thus, it is interesting for brands to collaborate with content creators for many reasons, especially for the holidays! And today we are checking a specific community: food creators!

‍

What is a food influencer?

‍

Food creators are influencers whose content always revolves around food and every practice that comes with it. In other words, they share their cooking and baking skills with their community. You can find food creators of any nationality! Thus some creators are experts in cooking their country’s specialties, others enjoy trying other nationalities’ dishes, and so on. There are various niches in the food community. You can find very specific creators such as “cookie artists” “Italian cuisine” “Christmas baking” and more. This variety of content is a huge asset for any brand looking to partner with a food creator, as you’ll always find a creator with the right expertise and perfect niche audience.

‍

Another important point about food influencers is the reach and engagement they generate. They are a community with particularly great engagement. This is due to the added value they bring to the viewers. They are not just creating content but sharing recipes, tips, best practices… In short, they provide cooking knowledge within their content. Thus, most viewers will:

‍

💌 Share the recipe with their friends or family

‍

🔒 Save it for later so they don’t lose the recipe or tip

‍

💬 Comment on what they think about the dish and even ask the creator a few questions if they have any doubts

‍

This engagement is very important for a brand because viewers will most probably also react, interact, share and save the content that is in collaboration with your brand.

‍

Food influencers for your influencer campaign

‍

As you might have guessed, it is quite beneficial for a brand specialized in the food/cooking industry to partner with a food creator for several reasons. So let’s go over the benefits of creating an influencer campaign with a food creator for the holidays!

‍

🎯 A niche audience. The creator’s community follows them because they are interested in their content. Thus partnering with a creator allows a brand to access this niche audience that matches its target market. In this case, if your brand is in the food/cooking industry, by partnering with a food creator you are reaching an audience that enjoys cooking. And this community will see your product and might be interested in purchasing it to follow the creator’s tips.

‍

🚀 Visibility and Engagement. Most creators engage with their audience, which creates proximity and trust between them and their audience. Partnering with a creator allows your brand to be more authentic. Moreover, it also boosts your engagement and visibility. As we said previously, the food community interacts a lot with food creators, thus your partnership will get a great number of views, comments, and shares!

‍

🥇 Brand authority. When working with a creator, you are joining your brand image with theirs (For that reason it is important to check if your values match perfectly). Thus appearing on a specialized food creator account will bring more brand authority! It allows your brand to appear as a reference in this domain, expertise, or market.
