We're excited to introduce you to Emily Steele (CEO & Co-Founder) and Callie Hippler (Marketing Manger, Growth & Engagement) of Hummingbirds - a platform designed to be a one-stop shop to find and work with hyper-local content creators on demand to drive revenue and recognition for your brand. In this episode, Erica chats with Emily and Callie about the power of tapping into local influencers and how community building can drive sales. About Hummingbirds, in their own words: Working with micro-influencers (or even larger) doesn't make sense for a majority of brands trying to target specific locations. We solve for that. And we do it through perks, community building, and an obsession with authenticity.Whether you're trying to get some buzz around a product launch in Target or you're opening another restaurant in one of our cities, consider getting real, trusted humans experiencing and sharing it in the community you want to impact. And know that not only are you going to reach locals through locals, but you could create lifelong customers and raving fans simply by engaging with Hummingbirds.
