Hi, my name’s Ellen. I’m currently working with one of an esports team in Indonesia as their system manager. Where do I come from? Well, I always smiled every time I’m about to answer that question.

Its been one of my dream to be able to bring influence to others, far before I heard about an influencer thingy. People hear your thoughts when you’re “someone”. And my favorite part is when I know I have people that share the same thoughts and interests as mine

8) What are some of your top tips to brands for running campaigns? How do you maintain authenticity?

The only tips I could give is to find the right influencer to promote your brand or campaign, bcs after all, their followers is your target. You can’t ask an influencer who always shares about sports and promote your baby products. Make deadline and clear guidelines about your campaign so the influence can also think about the best way to deliver it to the followers, bcs they knows their followers best right? To maintain the authenticity, we have to make sure the campaign is well discussed with transparent process

9) What would your advice be on the importance of quality and original content?

There are a thousands and thousands of influencers right now. What makes us different is the quality and authenticity of our content and the engangement with the followers. Being an influencer itself is a self branding, being original and just being yourself is the key. Thats how important it is.

10) What do you like best about partnering with brands?

I love getting the exposure and of course with the brands that I found suits me too. And it would be great if I could help the brands achieve their goals by partnering with me too.
