The global influencer market size has tripled since 2019 and is estimated to reach a record 21.1 billion U.S. dollars in 2023.

However, after some people get a seat at the table, it goes to their heads. The fame and money make them believe that the whole world revolves around them and that everyone else is just along for the ride.

Some of these influencers have such an overblown, exaggerated opinion of themselves. Their expressions when reality smacks them down are priceless

Many social media users feel a career as an influencer is more desirable than a traditional one.

However, the disadvantages you face when you choose this path may outweigh the benefits. If you look close enough, the sector starts to look unappealing on the inside just as much as it does from the outside.

It's true that those at the top can earn millions of dollars, but this is the exception rather than the rule. The average user who monetizes their content will bring in significantly less depending on the platform, number of followers, method of marketing, and the type of content they are creating.

ADVERTISEMENT

While there is limited research on what's easier to monetize, many top influencers belong to different genres and that suggests intangible factors, such as how authentic an influencer is perceived to be and how well they communicate and connect with their followers, are the most important keys to success.

On top of an unpredictable income, another disadvantage is volatile job security. Social media platforms use algorithms to sort posts on a user’s feed to ensure that we see content that the algorithm deems relevant to us.

But as this technology advances, it's becoming more difficult than ever to predict what's going to be popular and why. Even well-established content creators struggle to diversify their meet the ever-changing demands.

"As a form of independent entrepreneurship, influencing comes with no regulation, training, or support," wrote a team of researchers from the University of Windsor who study this sector.

"The result of this can be young content creators struggling with physical and mental health issues brought on by cyberbullying and high stress."

However, there might be hope after all. Recently, a new social media movement has emerged in response to the fake materialistic nature of influencer culture, called deinfluencing.

This trend involves influencers discouraging their followers from buying overpriced or ineffective products.

According to Fares, deinfluencers are trying to foster a more sustainable approach to consumption. Rather than promoting the latest products, they highlight mindful consumption, sustainability, and the importance of making thoughtful choices.

But these folks will have to try really hard to offset the damage done by all of their entitled peers.

Someone once stopped right at the top of an escalator and I was a couple of steps behind them. When they didn't move when I called out excuse me can you please move a couple of times, I put my head to the side and dropped my shoulder and braced myself. It worked- I got off the escalator without injuring myself.
