Successful brands have long understood the value of giving ad campaigns a recognizable face. This strategy has evolved from using fictional characters and celebrities to leveraging influencers, thanks to the rise of social media. Influencers, often everyday people, are seen as more relatable, authentic, and trustworthy compared to traditional celebrities. Historic campaigns like those featuring athletes in Nike and musicians in Pepsi set the stage, while today's influencers like Kim Kardashian for fashion and Ryan Reynolds for mobile services continue to expand the reach and impact of brand promotions, enhancing their own influence in the process. #BrandStrategy #MarketingStrategy
