25 May 2018 The GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) affects users, publishers, and marketing professionals as well. From today, the GDPR rules are effective. In many cases, the new rules will cause the change of communication strategies. The ones who are already publishing via international platforms such as Instagram are on the safe way. Advertisers on the other hand will prefer global players with accredited systems. For direct contact with special groups, influencer marketing was already before the GDPR deadline trending and its importance will rise once more because of the qualities of channels used by influencers. In February this year, Europe's largest shoe retailer Deichmann was mentioned by the German advertising magazine W&V (Werben & Verkaufen; translated Advertising & Selling) under thematic keywords such as Content Marketing, Influencer Marketing,.. with an article about the brand's activities on occasion of the founding of the Deichmann Influencer Club which includes educational events for social media publishers.
