By indicating when a post is part of a paid partnership, it is providing clarity and transparency. When the followers of the influencer see that they are being open about brand collaborations, it adds to the influencer’s credibility and builds trust with the audience.

Your business can benefit from the trust that has already been established between the influencer and their audience.
