Social Media Influencers

         When it comes to marketing through social media in 2016, when the article is from I think using influencers was the way to go. While I personally do not like any of those influencers and probably would not buy one single product they tried to sell if I were young and naive maybe I would have. Certain up and coming influencers now often have a lot more honesty and while they may not be working with specific brands one post can cause a frenzy to sell a singular product out without the company even doing anything.
