SABERMETRICS AND INFLUENCER MARKETING: DEVELOPING AN INFLUENCER PROGRAM USING STATISTICAL ANALYSIS

Defined by Bill James and rising to world-wide notoriety by way of the book  “Moneyball” by Michael Lewis, Sabermetrics is the use of statistical analysis to question traditional measures of baseball evaluation. As an agency specializing in Gen Z and Millennials, Fuse began practicing Influencer Marketing long before there were industry best practices and sophisticated measurement tools. As Influencer Marketing matured, the agency began to wonder if it had useful data from previous programs that could inform its future Influencer Marketing efforts.

So, six months ago, Fuse set out to on a time-consuming, complicated journey to apply a Sabermetrics-like review of a decade’s worth of its influencer marketing data. This presentation will be the results of our research and analytics on our seven stages of Influencer Marketing program development (planning, recruitment, application, hiring, onboarding, activation, measurement.) Members will learn from our “Sabermetrics” and be able to make data-driven decisions about their own Influencer Marketing programs.

DECODING GEN Z

Although Generation Z is comprised of those aged 20 and younger, they influence nearly $44 billion in discretionary spending.  Growing up in a post digital world has made Gen Z more marketing-savvy and selective with their brand affinities than previous generations.  At 18 years old, Connor Blakley is the Founder/CEO of YouthLogic, author of BrandZ, and has been featured in publications like Forbes, Inc., Entrepreneur, and many others as the voice of Gen Z.  Connor will share how brands can more authentically connect and engage Gen Z, the biggest mistakes brands make in trying to capture their attention and how to achieve brand loyalty.
