What you need to start a career as a Fashion/Style Influencer

You probably have favorite fashion influencers whose social pages you follow or blogs you visit. If you ever had the desire to be a fashion influencer, you should know it takes a lot to be a fashion and style influencer. Here are some tips that can help you get started.

● Gain followers
A large base of followers is one key requirement for being an influencer online. Thus, you should adopt strategies that help you gain followers on your social media platforms, such as using appropriate hashtags and hopping on relevant trends.

● Be ready to take and post lots of pictures
You must enjoy having your pictures taken and be comfortable in front of a camera. Be camera ready at all times and after taking pictures/videos don’t forget to post them (veeeeeeerry important!)

● Get a personal photographer
The fashion and style world is a glossy, picture-led one, so ensure to always have professional shots taken of your brand/personality. Having clear pictures with great concepts and editing will bring an extra “oomph” to your social media presence and getting your photos taken by a professional photographer will help a great deal.

● Be witty with your captions and content
Upload really good content with fun and witty captions. You have to captivate your audience first before you can influence them – always respond to their comments and ensure your content attracts more audience. Before you know it, you would have built a community under a post!

● Have a uniqueness about your brand
You won’t be the first or the last fashion influencer online (not by a long mile!), however, you need to have something your competitors don’t have. Once you figure out what that is, you can thrive on it. Your audience will keep returning to your page not only for your uniqueness and spontaneity but for being the best “YOU“ there can be!
