How to find influencers that can promote my store

Hey everyone,

For the sake of context, I own a store that is selling replica shoes that I need to make a selling advertising campaign quickly.

My main disadvantage is that I can't ship the product itself to some influencers that would accept a barter. The only solution I see, is to offer a price or a percent-of-sales to the influencers, for posting some content that will trigger the customer even without seeing the sneakers IRL (I have a few potential hooks in mind that can catch the people).

The main concern is how fruitful will this be? I believe that there will be not a big of a problem since people that trust an influencer will be ready to make a purchase based on what he recommended.

The last question I have is where I find a list of such influencers, that also have content on the topic I need, and how do I best contact them, so they will actually want to answer me and not just ignore.

You may want to reach out these influencers via Email or IG DM's, Email will be much better as getting replies on IG DM's is difficult.

So you are planing on selling those fake replicas by telling people they are original? or you are going to mention, its first copy?

Check other similar stores and search those hashtags on Instagram do see promotions done by other influencers.

I am planing to mention it is a copy, thus motivating the decreased price and gaining trust

mention it near the footer or in the terms of service page

If you cannot ship to influencers, how will you ship to customers?

Content marketing is unlikely to work if they cannot feature your product in the content.

I have a dedicated page with FAQ where this is mentioned

Also, I think of creating short tiktoks or reels with voiceovers and unboxing of the shoes as the background. I was wondering where I should best search for these videos of unboxing, that I could use.

you can find details of influencer in their ig page.
you can also try shoutcart

Many influencers arent gonna work for a % of profit, as they are better off just doing it themselves then. Only hard cash or actual products, and since its fake items what keeps them from just buying the fake item themself much cheaper and not having to promote. You need to come up with something thats mutually beneficial not something that only benefits you in order for influencers to bite.
