Finding an influencer partner of record is especially important as CPGs and retailers are concerned about accurate measurement, brand safety and the possibility that their influencer endorses rival brands.

Ahalogy has built in a number of brand safety measures into its platform, some of which are covered in Forrester’s findings. “Ahalogy provides many valuable factors by which to explore influencers and their audiences; an influencer’s proximity to retailers is a particularly valuable feature for shopper marketers,” the report states.

“Many of our clients have become our partners because brand safety is a vital part of our campaigns and our process,” said Gilbreath. “We know how important protecting a brand and its reputation is for our clients, which is why we’re continually innovating in this area.”
