What Does it Mean to be a Woman in the Influencer Marketing Industry?
Happy International Women’s Month! With women making up a majority of the influencer community, we asked a few of our influencers what it means to them to be a woman in the industry.
Fatima Aqil Ali
“It means that as a woman I have a voice, I can be the owner of my own brand, my business, and add value to brands with my own creativity and vision. Being a woman and an influencer means that I have the power to show people that you can be anything you want to be if you take that leap of faith and turn your passion into something bigger. It’s a privilege I wouldn’t give up for anything, I get to be a role model for young girls and show them together, we can do it all.”
Blair khodagholian
“My biggest message to everyone will be, The power that we hold by sticking together, helping each other and empowering each other as women is like no other power I have ever seen before. It is only by supporting each other that we will overcome any kind of hardship in any industry.”
Natalie Atick-Nunez
“Being a woman in the influencer marketing industry is the most empowering feeling ever. We are dominating the market since we are real and relatable. We get to create our own opportunities and connect with so amazing brands and followers. I feel proud every morning and so passionate about what I do and how far everyone has come.”
CAROLINA DE MAURO
"Being an influencer is not just about posting pretty outfits and beauty tips. It's about inspiring other women to feel good about themselves and to love who they are. Every time another woman tells me that I was able to inspire them somehow, or make them learn how to explore their personal style, or give them advice that changed their perspective, it makes it worth it to be in this industry and to continue with my work.”
Kavya Pernankil
“In honor of women's history month, I'd like people to appreciate the amount of work that goes behind gaining the trust and respect of their online audience. Being an influencer is a career of extreme passion and it never stops.”
