Stagwell (STGW) Influencer Marketing Product Koalifyed Launches Mobile App NEW YORK, Sept. 28, 2021

NEW YORK, Sept. 28, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Stagwell (NASDAQ: STGW) today announced that Stagwell Technology's influencer management platform Koalifyed has launched a mobile app, available for download on the Apple App Store. The app is the latest from Koalifyed, an end-to-end campaign management solution that empowers social-first brands and agencies to reach real audiences faster and optimize campaign dollars to improve results.

"We're excited for this next evolution in Koalifyed's technology and the added agility it will bring our brand and agency partners as they collaborate with talent in today's influence-driven marketplace," said Koalifyed Partner and Stagwell Technology's Chief Technology Officer Charles Hu. "From macro influencers to nano influencers, we know that in today's consumer-centric landscape, the endorsement of key creators can drive preference, positive word of mouth, and ultimately conversion."

"Koalifyed's app arrives at a crucial time for social-first brands seeking to tap into the multiplier-effect of modern culture," added Stagwell Chief Brand Officer Beth Sidhu. "At Stagwell, we're bullish on the value influencer marketing can add to an omnichannel strategy in today's marketplace and are proud to see Koalifyed continue to evolve as an essential tool for digital clients."

The technology - leveraged by clients such as P&G, Gilette, Old Spice, and Pantene - builds speed, efficiency, and trust into the most crucial parts of influencer campaign management, helping connect brands to their most engaged audiences, drive meaningful partnerships with dynamic, high-quality creators, and deliver maximum performance.

Koalifyed's app enhances the platform's features including best-in-class proprietary fraud detection which has been shown to identify up to 10 times more bots than other products; and blockchain technology for smart contracts to help keep brands compliant with increased FTC guidelines for influencer marketing.

"Brands need to reach people authentically - and authentic audiences are precisely what Koalifyed specializes in," added Christina Scala, SVP of Sales & Marketing, Koalifyed. "Our growing directory of diverse influencers can be a key tool for brands seeking to elevate a more representative cast of creators in their marketing."
