In this episode of The Rectified Podcast, host Sandy interviews William Gassner, co-founder of StackInfluence, discussing the current state of influencer marketing. William emphasizes that influencer marketing is not on its way to extinction but acknowledges challenges, particularly the diminishing trust in larger influencers due to perceived insincerity in product promotions. 

He highlights the shift towards smaller creators, nano, and micro-influencers, who are seen as more authentic and trustworthy, creating a trend toward "word of mouth marketing at scale." The conversation covers various aspects of influencer marketing, including the different levels of influencers, the evolving social media landscape, and the benefits of working with smaller influencers for both brands and creators.
