Social media plays a huge role in the overall branding of a company no matter how big or small. Whenever a social media influencer is chosen to endorse a new product, their review of it reaches hundreds of fans. Then, when those fans see that video or post of their favorite content creator checking out a new product and giving their review they instantly are attracted to it and most likely buy or consider buying this product, with the mentality that it makes them more like their favorite content creator.
