Influencers are people who have a digital presence, and they impact the buying behaviors of people either through a social media website or their personal blogs by using the factor of trust which people have in the people they admire or love, they listen to them, and it’s characteristics of us humans.
As globalization is close to its zenith, the influencer market has broken every boundary and it can be seen in every country where the market runs freely in some aspects and there’s more than one company that produces certain items and there’s competition between them. So, in order to beat the competition the companies prefer to choose the most influential person to promote their products subjective to the market they target. Norway is one such country where it is practiced and the companies there prefer to bag the best influencer to promote their brand.
