The Top 10 Cleaning Influencers UK Brands Need to Work With
Out of the many verticals to make their home on socials, it’s hard to argue that any is more suited to the aspirational, visual strengths of social content than cleaning and homecare.
The environments are relatable, the problems familiar – cleaning influencers (“cleanfluencers”) not only show users products working in real-time in real scenarios, but they do it in a way that’s super satisfying and directly applicable to their own lives.
Cleanfluencers are riding the tidal wave of a trend that is #cleantok. The future is bright (and spotless) for domestic brands who jump on for the ride.
Why Should You Leverage Cleaning Influencers into your Campaigns?
Cleaning influencers connect brands to one of the most passionate, highly engaged, and positive user communities out there. Cutting across broad demographics, #cleantok content is voraciously consumed by hundreds of millions who love nothing more than to see mess get sorted and dirt get gone.
In homecare, product is naturally central to the story – both in terms of brand and function – and influencers are the brokers of direct social proof through formats like ‘before-and-after’ and product reviews.
Users are typically high-intent and ripe for conversion. The products are not only accessible and affordable relative to verticals like tech or fashion, but consumers are hoping to replicate the influencer experience in their own lives.
Cleaning influencers are educational and entertaining in equal measure, guiding users through an ever-changing range of competing products and making recommendations based on their personal experiences, all wrapped in a satisfying and highly visual format.
Cleaning influencers thrive on being relatable, approachable and trustworthy. This is a vertical where users having favorite brands and particular loyalties is often a given, making branded partnerships and sponsored content highly palatable to audiences – even among the more critical Gen Zers.
