What is the best tool for finding social media influencers?

Question

Guys, I'm getting ready to launch my first start-up and would love to see what tool is best to find social media influencers for marketing.

Jakub Rogalski · Accepted Answer

I’d suggest using a social media monitoring tool. There are quite a few of them that you could test but when it comes to hands-on experience, I can give you a biased recommendation based on how I use our very own tool.

Social media posts have influencer scores assigned to them. With the influencer filter (based on a scale 0–10), you can quickly get to the most relevant posts and engage those authors you consider worth cooperating with.

You can filter the results based on a domain, so you can browse accounts specifically and see a few additional metrics such as a number of mentions, reach, voice share, and influence.

Hope you'll find it a bit helpful!

Ive started using awario 2 weeks ago to help with word of mouth type sales. What I like - is is real time instant alerts, it covers all platforms, it runs in a browser on my phone - I just need an internet connection. I respond with help / advice to people and businesses in my niche , and so far we have a 25% increase in organic sales. Coincidence ? - I dont think so - as awario is the only tool I have used.  
Costs about 1$ a day, which is a lot less than google adwords or doing all the seo work etc. (although SEO is 100% necessary).All I really care about is that I have added value to potential new customers questions etc, so far for me - it is one of those game changers - that is definitelyworking for me -  -www.awario.co.uk  - a superb bit of software (well done to developers)
