Princess Polly’s Influencer Program

The Requirements

Princess Polly leans toward micro-influencers and mid-tier influencers. However, their collaborations with Ariana Grande and YouTube sensation Emma Chamberlain have contributed to their massive success. Neither being micro or mid-tier influencers.

In a June 2021, StudentBeans interview, Kim Zorn, Princess Polly’s Head of Performance said, 

“The types of influencers we use really depends on our strategy. We had a huge collaboration with Emma Chamberlain in the US, which brought heaps of new customers. But we also focus on micro-influencers as well in some cases – generally, they have a smaller but really engaged audience that really listens to what they’re buying.”

To really understand the Princess Polly influencer, we’ve listed some of their top influencers from over the years. Let’s peek at their profiles.

1.  Cartia Mallan (Australian)

3. Olivia Jade

Despite Olivia Jade’s insane 1,2 million followers on Instagram and 1,8 million on YouTube, Princess Polly was forced to drop the social media influencer for her involvement in a university bribery scandal. This was a shame because Olivia was a great fit for the brand. Not only is she the daughter of actress Lorri Laughlin, she also vlogged about beauty, makeup, and fashion and indulged in the odd challenge.

How to promote and drive sales

Princess Polly is about pushing the boundaries on how influencers exercise their influence. Influencers must think outside the box about what drives sales. Understand your audience and how they prefer to be engaged and do that.

·       Fashion tutorials

·       Q&A

·       Challenges

Focusing on one channel works way better

  • YouTube is great for vlogs and Try-on hauls. 
  • Instagram is made for those model-esque shots that capture the clothes or the event you wore them to. 
  • Facebook may be better suited to special offers and discount codes on. 
  • TikTok’s strength lies in short-form videos which encourage quick styling and get-ready-with-me videos. 

Pick a channel that works best for you, your content style and your audience.
