Which Influencer Content Types Are Best for Driving Sales?

👀 Sponsor this spot to share your content with our community.

Influencer marketing this, influencer marketing that.

But what are the specific content formats, influencer types, and platforms that consistently generate real results?

Here’s what the latest data tells us:

  • 🎥 Demos and tutorials remain the top-performing content types for driving sales. They’re particularly effective for BOFU consumers who are already interested in a product.
  • 📱 Short-form content, like Instagram Reels and TikTok videos, works well for quick engagement and viral potential.
  • 📖 Long-form content excels in providing deeper storytelling, product reviews, and building stronger customer trust.
  • 👩‍💻 While large influencers get the headlines, nano and micro influencers typically have higher engagement rates and create more authentic content, resulting in better conversion rates.
  • 📸 Instagram continues to lead for driving influencer-driven purchases, but TikTok, particularly its Shop feature, is gaining traction, especially for lower-ticket items.

Liquid Death x Philly

The Drink of Champions

Hot off its highly ranked Super Bowl ad, Liquid Death has signed a multi-year deal with the Philadelphia Eagles—meaning its iced teas will now be available at Lincoln Financial Field.

CEO Mike Cessario, a Philly native, joked that the Eagles might be tapping into Liquid Death’s mojo for a repeat victory in 2026.

As the team’s Official Iced Tea Partner, Liquid Death will have stadium signage, social media integration, and a sweepstakes offering fans tickets, autographed swag, and an exclusive concert.

The brand has also launched the Liquid Death Pro Driver team, awarding $30,000 sponsorships to three NASCAR fans who chugged iced tea in 18 seconds.
