What is BuzzGuru?
BuzzGuru is a global company concentrated on working with and for marketers and brands in the influencer marketing field. BuzzGuru has developed and is constantly improving its own SaaS marketing technology platform. The platform is used in-house and by BuzzGuru’s clients to prepare and manage influencer marketing campaigns, search for relevant influencers, analyze their audiences and competitors’ advertising campaigns. The company also includes a performance agency that manages influencer marketing campaigns. BuzzGuru’s mission is to help brands and agencies scale their businesses and grow their revenue through one of the most effective and fast-growing marketing channels – influencers on social media.
The current industry landscape
The influencer marketing industry is growing fast: from approximately $9.7 billion in 2020 to $13.8 billion this year according to the Influencer Marketing Hub studies. According to their experts, already in 2019, every dollar spent on advertising with influencers brought brands an average of $5.7, and in some areas of the market, the earned media value reached $18.
Also, the Mediakix research shows that 71% of marketers rate the quality of traffic from influencer marketing very highly: they say customers are better than those from other marketing sources.
And yet influencer marketing remains a dark area for most marketers. The Influencer Marketing Hub study showed that marketers find working with influencers difficult:
23% of marketers and agency representatives said that finding relevant influencers and building communication with them is very difficult;
62% of respondents rated this task as medium-difficult.
BuzzGuru makes things easier and the work more efficient. The marketing intelligence platform developed by the company is made specifically for those who need to automate relevant influencers search first of all. The marketing AI has all the necessary data and analyzes influencers and their audiences for brands’ needs. Also, those who prefer working with agencies can always work with BuzzGuru experts who conduct influencer marketing advertising campaigns from the beginning to the very end and provide clients with detailed reports.
Creating BuzzGuru
BuzzGuru started as an influencer marketing marketplace agency in 2017. The focus has always been on helping brands reach target audiences and bring the highest possible ROI from influencer marketing campaigns. In 2019 BuzzGuru pivoted to an IM agency after seeing that the companies were rather willing to outsource all IM work to specialized agencies rather then do it by themselves, and much work was being done manually. Generally it took a lot of time, effort, and resources – the problem that led to the further development through automation.
BuzzGuru needed a solution to boost the business growth and become more efficient and useful to the clients. Also, it’s impossible to be up-to-date and competitive without own high-tech business solutions. So BuzzGuru started developing automation tools for in-house use. First, there appeared a large database of influencers with their general information; then BuzzGuru automated the process of updating the performance metrics of the influencers (their engagement rate, the average number of views, etc.).
Soon it turned out that there was a whole stack of technologies that could be gathered and optimized. So, the technologies were arranged into a new whole and wholesome product – the BuzzGuru marketing intelligence platform.
Now, the platform is available for brands, agencies, and solo marketers who want to work with influencers and conduct advertising campaigns on social media efficiently.
