Celebrities and influencer making fitness interesting

"30% of consumers are likely to purchase a product endorsed by a non-celebrity."

I found an article that listed 10 fitness influencers.

"The hottest and most coveted job in 2018 is a job that did not exist five years ago."

"Influencers are ordinary people who have become famous by using social media to create loyal followers."

Being an influencer became a real job due to how social media has changed how we perceive and process digital content. 

1. Access

Platforms like Instagram and YouTube have permitted a new degree of accessibility that was never possible before. This new level of connectivity has created a global community that exchanges ideas and information. Just like how celebrities spark public intrigue, fitness influencers can do the same thing by projecting their everyday lives and routines.

2. Relatability

Influencers at their core are regular people without a true stand out talent that makes them 'exceptional'. Therefore, audiences can develop a deeper connection with an influencer because their lifestyle is more within reach than a typical celebrity. 

"In fact, 70% of YouTube subscribers identify with YouTube Creators better than with TV or movie stars."

Accordingly, any advice or recommendations given from influencers is more likely to be perceived positively. This concept has led to the transition to influence based advertising.

Personally I feel that this is true as I have even bought products that were recommended by influencers.

3.Fitness influencer/Follower relationship

"the top 25 YouTubers generate more than three times more views than when “traditional” celebrities or athletes post on YouTube."

To become successful, social media celebrities need to find ways to show their content to viewers who will like their content. To achieve this, utilising data from social media monitoring tools can help influencers decipher what type of content resonates best with their views, like Unamo's social media tracking metrics that can let influencers see the optimal times to post. 

The fitness industry used to claim that achieving a dream body was only attainable for the few who work the hardest, like famous body builders. However, influencers have shattered that idea by making fitness achievable for everyone.
