NEW: Run Twitch Influencer Campaigns on Klear

Having an innovative influencer marketing strategy means staying up to date on the latest industry trends. But, most importantly, it requires using an influencer marketing platform that supports any new developments in the industry. In the last year, we integrated TikTok into our capabilities, allowing customers to run complete TikTok campaigns. Now, we are thrilled to launch a NEW Twitch capability, allowing customers to discover Twitch influencers and measure Twitch campaign impact.

Why Should You Be On Twitch?

If you’re like me, you’re most likely scratching your head and thinking, “what in the world is Twitch?” Fear not boomer, or should I say Millennial. Here’s everything you should know about Twitch, and why brands are beginning to incorporate the live stream platform into their strategy. 

1. Twitch is About Live Content

Twitch is the largest live-streaming platform, where users can either watch or broadcast live or pre-recorded videos. The platform has more than 15M daily active users. So, we’re talking about the ability to connect with highly engaged users. 

And, remember how popular live content became in 2020? Live content is a great way to engage with an audience, even from a distance. 

2. Gaming, Sports, Music, and More!

Twitch got its start as a gamer platform, where users would post and watch live-streams of video games. Some of the most popular games on Twitch are Fortnite, League of Legends, and Overwatch. However, Twitch has expanded to non-gaming content. Music live-streaming is really big on Twitch, thanks to a streaming partnership with Ulta Music Festival in 2015. And, Twitch has made streaming partnerships with both the NBA and NFL, further expanding non-gaming content into the sports arena. 

3. Gen-Z Male User

82% of Twitch users are male, and 55% of all users are between the ages of 18-24. This means Twitch has an extremely targetted audience. And due to the specific nature of the content, these are users that are genuinely passionate about the content they are receiving. For marketers looking to engage with a high-intent, Gen-Z audience, it is a recipe for success. 

Twitch and influencer Marketing

It’s pretty obvious that Twitch is a great platform for engaging with a super-targetted audience. In fact, many brands including KFC, Gillette, Pepsi, and Hershey’s are already leveraging Twitch in their strategy. So there is no reason you shouldn’t either. To make sure that you can perform highly successful Twitch campaigns, we have now enhanced Klear’s capabilities making it easy for you to vet Twitch influencers and measure Twitch campaign impact.
