Chief Marketing Officer
COMPANY OVERVIEW
Brands spend ~$6B per year on influencer marketing, yet 75% of campaigns fail to deliver expected ROI. At SwayID, we are aggressively pursuing the opportunity to become the dominant solution that replaces traditional influencer marketing by directly addressing the root cause of the problem: authenticity.
- 90% of influencers promote products they don't use.
- 80% of consumers today can spot inauthentic sponsorships and are turned off instantly.
SwayID aims to reverse Influencer Marketing Dysfunction (ID) by addressing the rampant authenticity problem with extreme simplicity.
- Always Authentic: SwayID ensures that brands reward creators with gated, personalized discounts, knowing they will naturally share what they genuinely buy and love.
- Never Forcing It: By offering exclusive creator discounts, SwayID enables brands to achieve genuine word-of-mouth marketing without the need for forced posts.
Unique Value Proposition:
- User Friendly: Designed for simplicity and ease of use.
- Highly Effective: Always ROI positive.
- Controversy-Free: Equipped with guarantees to side step red tape and negative backlash.
