Why Influencer Marketing is Taking Over Online Advertising

TCM DIGITAL

TCM has launched NinjaInfluence, an all-in-one Influencer Marketing AI SaaS platform that provides an affordable yet powerful use of influencer marketing that enables eCommerce businesses to deal with increased ad costs and reduced marketing budgets due to unstable market sentiment. On Tuesday, May 24th, The Snap Company announced it will miss its projections due to decreased ad spending. The announcement triggered a spiral effect for most ad-driven super techs, such as Google and Facebook. This came as no surprise given the current environment, along with rising ad prices and macro headwinds likely to extend to every region of digital advertising. An article published by CNBC earlier this week states, “Social media companies were already having a rough year from the cutback in digital ad spending caused by rising inflation, supply chain challenges, and the war in Ukraine. Forecasts for the second quarter called for meager growth at best, and stock prices were getting hammered.” Following Snap’s disclosure, JMP Securities analysts shared, “Macro headwinds likely extend to all digital advertising.” They added that brand budgets, and especially digital ones, “are more at risk of being reduced as companies tighten ad budgets,” while direct response ads, or those that encourage viewers to take immediate action, are “more connected to consumer spend, particularly eCommerce.” Read the full CNBC article here. The eCommerce space is seeking alternative means to cut down advertising spending amid rising costs of social media ads in an environment that's highly volatile. Even now while ad costs rise, eCommerce has seen a massive uptick since the start of the pandemic, expected to total $5.55 trillion in 2022 and to grow by almost $11 trillion between 2021 and 2025. This increase can also be attributed to the effect of influenceres/online creators. An authentic and engaging presence online is critical to being disruptive in a saturated marketed experience. People want to be wowed, connect to something, and belong to a community. Enter influencers, a person valued by the audience much more than the classic pop-up ad. With such dedicated followings, you can shorten the sales cycle by standing apart from your competition. A strong brand doesn’t only optimize performance marketing in the short term but also makes it a source of sustainable growth. Stronger brands draw more organic acquisitions, retain more customers, and command higher sales. As the digital space becomes more crowded, brand identity and brand awareness will only become more crucial. When time is a critical commodity,one needs to be fast, agile, and ahead of its competitors. One needs to focus on brand equity and improve upon one's brand loyalty while maintaining one's ad spend. While inflationary pressure affects purchasing decisions, brands must strengthen their community reach and customer relationships. After spending over eight years operating within the eCommerce space both as an eCommerce seller and as a leading aggregator, we have experienced community creation, aptly named influencer marketing, first hand. But how do you go about finding the right influencers? Even if you do find the right influencers, how would you manage them, monetize, measure performance, and still be able to attend one's eCommerce business? Welcome to the solution of NinjaInfluence, TCM’s disruptive influencer marketing platform. With our dynamic and elastic AI search engine, we have curated a database of over 140 million influencers for you to filter and pinpoint the perfect brand representative. Each will be the champion brand ambassador and increase sales. Within the platform, you can conduct research, outreach, and campaign management along with tracking your real-time sales and social metrics. Even making payments to your influencers are just a click away using NinjaInfluence. You do not have to take the journey alone. Our team of Influencer Managers is here to oversee the entire process, from discovering and identifying the right influencer, to outreach and sending customized messages all the way to managing your entire marketing influencers funnel, your own dedicated Influencers Manager. With the assistance of the Influencer Manager, negotiate everything from partnership terms to campaign management as they set up eCommerce coupons, tracking links for sales, and social engagement. On June 1st at 9:00 am ET, the Ninjainfluence team will be conducting a live webinar. We invite you to join our live demonstration and roundtable discussion as we tackle the alternative means of online advertising and how to best engage with Influencers for the maximum outcome. To save your seat, click to register and write "Save my seat for the upcoming webinar." About NinjaInfluence NinjaInfluence is an influencer marketing software that supports users in easily managing their strategies and communicating with influencers/creators. Following up on its predecessor, NinjaOutreach, it provides access to over 140 million influencers across Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, and Twitter. In addition to its established search engine, NinjaInfluence offers a multitude of features such as eCommerce integration, full analytics dashboards, smart search manager, internal payment platform, related profile recommendation engine and a consolidated CRM-like workspace.

CORRECTING and REPLACING Volatus Aerospace Corp. Announces Record First Quarter 2022 Sales

Volatus Aerospace Corp.

The headline of the release dated May 26, 2022 has been updated to read "Volatus Aerospace Corp. Announces Record First Quarter 2022 Sales" sted "Volatus Aerospace Corp. Announces Record First Quarter Annual Sales" The updated release reads: Volatus Aerospace Corp. Announces Record First Quarter 2022 Sales Volatus Aerospace Corp. (TSXV: VOL) (OTCQB: VLTTF) ("Volatus" or "the Company"), is pleased to announce record sales for the first quarter of 2022. The growth was driven by sales of products and solutions. Key Financial Highlights: Revenue for Q1 2022 was $4,807,829, an increase of 64% over the previous quarter and a sixteen-fold increase over the year-on-year quarter of 2021. The revenue was driven predominantly by organic growth across Canada, the USA, Latin America, and some parts of Europe. The drone services and training segment are lowest in the first quarter due to seasonality. Gross profit for Q1 2022 was $1,092,840 an increase of $930,748 over the same period in 2021. The increase in gross profit is due to scaling in product and service activities. Volatus recorded a comprehensive loss of $1,774,397 compared to a comprehensive loss of $1,328,628 in the previous quarter. This was due to increased investment in human resources and expansion activities. Operational Highlights: The Company achieved significant milestones in the first quarter of 2022, namely: Volatus scaled its activities in the United States and the United Kingdom, hiring key people in the public safety and defense sectors. As a result of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the demand for defense related drones has significantly increased globally. The Company accelerated its plans to expand in Europe and nearby regions and is promoting its capabilities to provide ISR (Intelligence, Surveillance, Reconnaissance) and humanitarian cargo drone solutions. The Company is actively supporting non-government organizations (NGOs) including Mriya Aid and Second Front Ukraine in their efforts to support Ukraine. Volatus has entered numerous strategic partnerships with North American and European UAS manufacturers having unique capabilities in different sectors - providing a portfolio of technologies for it to commercialize and present as integrated solutions to its clients in the commercial, public safety and defense sectors. These technologies have been “Vetted by Volatus” – a program whereby a team of subject matter experts from Volatus perform due diligence on the technology and certify that it is ready for commercialization. The Company made a strategic move with the acquisition of MVT Geo Solutions Inc. on February 28, 2022. This acquisition enhanced Volatus' service and data processing capabilities in the province of Quebec and Eastern Canada. Volatus will integrate the operations of MVT to provide data insights and scale its LiDAR expertise across Canada. As part of creating a drone community, Volatus introduced Drone Network News available here. This communication channel was developed to inform various stakeholders in the industry, enable sharing of knowledge and informed decision making and increase the awareness and market exposure of Volatus as an industry expert. This channel highlights all the key developments in the drone industry across the globe through articles, discussions, and podcasts with key industry leaders. “Drones are the future and Volatus is the future of drones,” said Glen Lynch, President and CEO of Volatus. “During the quarter we have made considerable investments in equipment, inventory, sales personnel, and marketing in preparation for continued strong expansion during the remainder of 2022. We are committed to building the global drone company and running it sustainably.” The condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2022, and associated management discussion and analysis, are made available under the Company's profile on SEDAR at www.sedar.com Webinar In conjunction with this release, Volatus investor relations Kate McKenna will host a webinar on Tuesday, May 31 st at 11:00 AM EST at which time Glen Lynch, Chief Executive Officer, and Abhinav Singhvi, Chief Financial Officer, will review the quarterly results and major milestones.

Lexus Leverages Mirriad's Virtual Product Placement to Drive Brand Awareness Among Multicultural and LGBTQIA+ Audiences

Mirriad

Mirriad, the leading in-content advertising company powered by Academy Award Winning AI technology, today announced its latest campaigns with Lexus through in-content music video activations. The partnership takes Lexus’ advertising capabilities to the next level, unlocking scalable access into the music industry in a way that traditional product placement has fallen short, and builds on the teams’ recent collaboration for the 2nd Annual B.I.G. Dinner Gala in honor of Biggie’s 50th birthday celebration. To date in 2022, Lexus and Mirriad have developed brand placements across four music videos, enabling Lexus to effectively reach key multicultural and LGBTQIA+ audiences. Today, brands face numerous challenges when leveraging in-content advertising to reach audiences. For Lexus, the majority of content that reaches their multicultural target audiences is filmed abroad. Additionally, ongoing supply chain issues and inventory shortages have made the option of traditional product placement more challenging. Given the flexibility of Mirriad’s creative formats, ads are no longer limited to physical placements during the time of filming. Now, signage, video and virtual products, like vehicles, can be placed in post-production with Mirriad’s technology. “At Lexus, we’re committed to reaching consumers through content that is meaningful and authentic to ensure that we’re meeting our audiences where they are, in a non-disruptive way,” said Mia Phillips, Senior Manager of Advertising and Media at Lexus. “With Mirriad’s AI technology, we’re able to create those experiences while simultaneously expanding our brand reach. We’ve seen proven results across all of the in-content campaigns we’ve executed with Mirriad over the last six months and are confident in the continued success.” Mirriad recently partnered with Sony Music Latin to insert Lexus signage into the music video for a prominent Latin artist’s latest single. The video features creative from the Shine Your Way Everyday campaign, Lexus’ in-market campaign targeted toward LGBTQIA+ audiences. Since the video premiered, the campaign has resulted in a 14 percent increase in brand awareness, as compared to an audience unexposed to the same ads, and an eight percent increase in brand purchase consideration, according to Kantar. The partnership has proven to have the intended reach, with the results for both brand and ad awareness strongest for those who felt sexual orientations were featured positively in the video. Mirriad and Lexus also collaborated on music videos for South Asian-American pop artists Mickey Singh and Jonita Gandhi, through Mirriad’s partnership with TreeHouse VHT. Addressing the challenge of placing a vehicle within the content, Mirriad’s technology enabled a 3D placement of Lexus’ LX model in Singh’s official music video for Nachle 101 and the behind-the-scenes video. Additionally, Lexus video creative and signage was featured throughout Signh’s videos and Gandhi’s official music video for Hauli Hauli. Additionally, Mirriad and Lexus ran a television campaign with ItalkBB in the Chinese language program: Legally Romance. Mirriad integrated signage and 3D Lexus models within content, for a total of 15 integrations throughout the series. Mirriad's extensive content library enabled Lexus to reach AAPI and Hispanic audiences through content that otherwise would be inaccessible. “For multicultural artists and creators, establishing partnerships with major brands takes up a lot of time and effort, and the outcomes don’t always show value,” said Jay Skilly, CEO of TreeHouse VHT. “In working with a company like Mirriad, that prioritizes amplifying minority artists and creators, we’ve been able to identify moments within music videos that have high-impact for brands and are authentic to artists, their music and their audiences.” “We are proud to work with Lexus as their team continues to allocate larger portions of their advertising budgets to empower young, diverse creators,” said Maria Teresa Hernandez, VP of Sales and Brand Partnerships at Mirriad. “In Lexus, we’ve found a partner who understands how to reach their audiences in a relevant way while also highlighting minority voices. The success of these campaigns paved the way for our most recent activation during Biggie’s 50th birthday celebration, where Lexus was able to take a traditional campaign activation and amplify it by leveraging Mirriad’s AI technology.” To learn more about Mirriad and the advertising opportunities offered visit www.mirriad.com.
