Development of a Social Influencer Collaboration Platform for Business Engagement

Businesses face difficulties in quickly finding trustworthy influencers, due to fake profiles and lack of transparent reviews. Traditional marketing agencies have limited access to a broad base of influencers and often incur high costs, hindering cost-effective influencer marketing campaigns. The absence of a centralized platform complicates the process of selecting suitable partners for collaboration, leading to delays and inefficiencies.
