Abstract
Last week I bought a pair of shoes that I did not require, which is costly enough to buy me a decent laptop. I saw them in an ‘un-boxing video’ by a famous vlogger on YouTube. It was like I was under some influence; I could not resist myself. I pride myself on having good willpower and control, but alas! As a business student, I was intrigued and worried simultaneously, so I decided to talk to my Professor of Marketing and do some research. The present article outlines our exploration of Influencer marketing and its potential psychological drivers.
