Hi Nicole, your MBA topic sounds very interesting!

Just to let you know, some of your questions were “tick all that apply” but I could only select one answer.

Your "age bracket" doesn't go up high enough.

The OP's survey is specifically for folks in the UK (she messaged me and posted on Pricescope).

Nonetheless, willingly-led humans are everywhere, as are their Pied Pipers.

Hi Pomelo, thank you for bringing this to my notice .

Hi Weaves, Thank you for your feedback regarding the age brackets in our survey. I apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. For the purposes of this study, we are focusing on a specific age range that aligns with our research objectives. The current age brackets reflect the target demographic we are studying for this particular project.

As someone who might be doling out pearls to 'influencers' I wouldn't waste a strand of 5mm dyed potatoes on one of them

I kinda think you are in the wrong place with this survey We are too old, not in the UK and we form our own opinions without input from influencers or we wouldn't be on this forum. We are not the ones you want

 

[Pearl Dreams]

I tend to agree. I am not a member of social media and don't watch the videos of influencers.

Some of us are in the UK. But I do not have anything to do with influencers. Complete waste of time and money.

 

[BWeaves]

I agree. I'm not in the UK. I too old for your survey. I'm not on Facebook or any social media platform. And I don't follow influencers.

Just to clarify, there are people contacting me all the time asking for free pearls because they are 'influencers'. Up to the stylist for the wife (or maybe now ex-wife of a very famous actor who wanted to wear them to some awards thing. But would not agree to a loan, or hire, with them paying the insurance)

 

[KarinK]

My impression was that the survey was about finding out if we would be influenced to buy pearls if we saw them being worn by influencers on social media and I don't think any of us here would - in the UK or not. We are most certainly influenced by what other forum members wear and post, though, but that didn't seem to be the point

It seems an odd subject to pick for a dissertation. Too narrow. Unless she is planning to be a pearl influencer...?

 

[Katbran]

Definitely the wrong place to ask. I'm on IG and generally can't stand influencers and certainly wouldn't be swayed by one.

I suppose we have forum influencer here

Social media influencers (otherwise unemployed models looking for free stuff) broadly appear in staged settings, not real life situations while their numbers are almost always bot driven.
