For marketers, influencers, brand ambassadors, and raving fans can create a significant differentiator between your brand and its competitors because they tend to communicate authentically and build trust with target audiences.

Brand ambassadors are rewarded but are more committed to the brand for the longer term and raving fans just love your product that they will talk to their friends without substantial rewards.
