Ramadan 2024 Digital Research: Raffi-Gigi Promotes the Most on Social Media

Business people use the increase in shopping interest during Ramadan 2024 to intensify promotions. One of them is by using the services of influencers. On the other hand, influencers who have their businesses are also increasingly diligent in promoting their businesses on various social media.

Seeing this phenomenon, Jakpat and Jangkara.id conducted a digital research in Ramadan 2024 to see the extent of product/service promotion carried out by influencers, and how the public responded to it. This report involved 1,180 respondents to the Jakpat online survey application and monitoring 4,151 posts on 50 Instagram influencers with the most followers in Indonesia curated by Jangkara. The survey was conducted during Ramadan in March 2024.

The effectiveness of influencer promotion

The online survey revealed that 87% of respondents agreed that promotion by influencers could make products better known to the public. Then, as many as 72% of respondents agree that product promotion through influencers on social media is more attractive than advertisements in mass media. As many as 65% of respondents claimed to be interested in buying products promoted by influencers. Fashion, beauty, and culinary products are the categories most interested in respondents.

“Today, influencers are one of the sources of information for consumers in the purchase decision-making process. Therefore, the role of influencers who can provide detailed, accurate, and reliable information is very important,” said Jakpat Research Lead, Farida Hasna.
