Influencer Marketing
How it works
Vendors must provide a product for free to influencers at JAPAN Fes, and participating influencers may choose to share the product on their social media, which may help increase overall exposure.
Additional influencers may also attend.
What vendors must do
Provide one free item of the main product/service per influencer. Only items approved by the organizer.
Provide items only to the influencer (do not give items to friends or companions).
Expected influencer count
We expect about 5–10 influencers, but the organizer does not guarantee the number of attendees.
