Everyone wants influencer marketing to work. But nobody tells you what to do when your CEO wants ROI in 30 days, creators stop responding, and you're running three jobs at once. In this solo episode, our host, Robyn Nissim, answers the questions she gets most often from influencer marketing managers. You'll learn how to measure influencer success, manage burnout, navigate AI, improve creator outreach, and build programs that actually drive business results. Presented by Social Snowball.
