Analyst Opinion

The Influencer Advertising market in Pakistan is experiencing significant growth and development due to several factors.

Customer preferences:
Customers in Pakistan are increasingly turning to social media platforms for entertainment, information, and inspiration. As a result, they are more likely to follow and engage with influencers who have a strong presence on these platforms. Influencers are seen as relatable and trustworthy figures who can provide valuable recommendations and insights. Customers in Pakistan also appreciate the authenticity and creativity that influencers bring to their content, making influencer advertising an effective way to reach and engage with the target audience.

Trends in the market:
One of the key trends in the influencer advertising market in Pakistan is the rise of micro-influencers. These are individuals who have a smaller but highly engaged audience. Brands are increasingly partnering with micro-influencers to promote their products or services as they offer a more targeted reach and higher engagement rates. Additionally, micro-influencers are often seen as more authentic and relatable, which resonates well with customers in Pakistan. Another trend in the market is the growing popularity of video content. Platforms like YouTube and TikTok have gained immense popularity in Pakistan, with millions of users actively consuming video content. Influencers who create engaging and entertaining videos are able to capture the attention of their audience and effectively promote brands and products. This trend has led to an increase in video-based influencer campaigns, with brands recognizing the power of video content in driving engagement and conversions.

Local special circumstances:
Pakistan has a large and growing youth population, with a significant percentage of the population under the age of 30. This demographic is highly active on social media platforms and is more receptive to influencer marketing. Brands are leveraging this demographic by partnering with influencers who have a strong presence among young people. Additionally, Pakistan has a diverse cultural landscape, with different regions and communities having their own unique preferences and interests. Influencers who are able to cater to these diverse audiences are highly sought after by brands.

Underlying macroeconomic factors:
The increasing availability and affordability of smartphones and internet connectivity in Pakistan have played a significant role in the growth of the influencer advertising market. With more people gaining access to the internet, the potential reach of influencer campaigns has expanded significantly. Additionally, the rise of e-commerce in Pakistan has created new opportunities for influencer advertising. Influencers are able to drive traffic to online stores and promote products directly to customers, leading to increased sales and revenue for brands. In conclusion, the Influencer Advertising market in Pakistan is experiencing growth and development due to customer preferences for relatable and authentic content, trends such as the rise of micro-influencers and video content, local special circumstances including a large youth population and diverse cultural landscape, and underlying macroeconomic factors such as increased smartphone and internet penetration and the growth of e-commerce. This market is expected to continue to evolve as social media platforms and customer preferences continue to evolve.

Methodology

Data coverage:

Data encompasses enterprises (B2B). Figures are based on influencer advertising spending and exclude agency commissions, rebates, production costs, and taxes. The market covers advertising fees paid directly to influencers to post sponsored content.

Modeling approach:

Market size is determined by a combined top-down and bottom-up approach. We use market data from independent databases, influencer marketing platforms, and third-party reports to analyze and estimate global influencer advertising spending. We start by researching on the average cost per content post on each social media platform, the number of influencers available on advertising platforms (breakdown by tier: nano, micro, macro, and mega), and the average number of posts per year. Then we estimate the market size for each country individually. We use relevant key market indicators and data from country-specific industry associations, such as GDP, social media users, and digital consumer spending. Lastly, we benchmark key countries or regions (global, United States, China, etc.) with external sources.

Forecasts:

We use a variety of forecasting techniques, depending on the behavior of the market. For instance, the S-curve function is well suited to forecast digital products due to the non-linear growth of technology adoption, whereas exponential trend smoothing (ETS) is more suited for projecting steady growth in traditional advertising markets.

Additional notes:

Data is modeled using current exchange rates. The impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine war are considered at a country-specific level. The market is updated twice per year in case market dynamics change.
