We’ve talked about a handful of books on influencer marketing here on Winfluence. While we await the publishing of Winfluence (the book) in early 2021, Jason Falls couldn’t help having more great discussions with smart people in the space, even other authors.

Justin Blaney is a professor at the University of Washington and the chief innovation officer at Principal Advantage, a lead-generation firm based in Seattle. He and his co-author, Kate Fleming, who is a skin care influencer as well as a digital analyst, have written a great book called Will Post for Profit. Unlike a lot of other influencer marketing books, Justin and Kate actually divide the advice in theirs between influencers and brands. Most books focus on one or other.

That being one of the strengths of the book, Falls talked to Justin about what aspiring influencers could do to launch, build and be successful, then dove deeper into the brand side to discuss what insights he has for them. There’s a little something in this episode for everyone in the influencer marketing space.
