Benefits of joining the IMC

What is the IMC?

The Influence Marketing Council is an industry council: an association of marketing professionals who work at or with brands and innovative companies.

The IMC works with influence marketing. IMC members run influence marketing programs that leverage high-touch relationships with industry influencers, brand advocates, and professional communities. The IMC helps members define and execute successful programs that align and support the rest of the business.

The IMC is a membership organization with yearly dues that meets online in a private community, on monthly calls, and in person at events. We are committed to our members’ success.


Access to an elite group of practitioners; council members are from brands : external associates can’t solicit.

A private community site and Slack channel for you to get real time feedback, benchmarking and support for your program.

Regular online meetings feature a range of topics, bringing industry leaders and marketing innovators to our private discussions.

Be the first to receive in-house generated research. Our research is driven by common requests from our council. This research is relevant and unique, concentrating on your business needs.

In-person meetings co-located with industry events. Our meetings emphasize networking so you have an opportunity to gather personalized, actionable advice.
