Do you know of any social media influencers? What are their niche areas?
If you became a social media influencer, what medium would you use and what would you
post about?
I know some of the social media influencers such as Hanif Jamal, Khairulaming, Azfarheri and PU
Azman. KhairulAming or his full name is Khairul Amin Kamarulzaman. He is from Kota Bharu, Kelantan.
He is active in cooking show and produce newer recipe since 2016.
If I become a social media influencer, I will use Twitter medium to promote or marketing the product.
Twitter is an extremely powerful platform and suitable for a social media influencer like me where the
information from me is spread very fast with the follower’s retweets. I will use hashtag in every post with
some funny or motivation quote to make it more interesting for my future customer. I will also make some
friend with the other great social media influencer so that I will have a greater chance for my content, share
and brand name to viral which will cause my business marketing received more great response from the
customer and of course the company products sell will increase.
I will post about food and clothing. Nowadays as we know we are in pandemic situation of Covid19,
so most of people just do online shopping at their home. I will take this opportunity to post about brandy
clothes with affordable price like Uniqlo, Levi’s, Timberland and Abstrax.
