Social Influencers and celebrities are involved before launching a new platform or brand. Seeing them opting for a new platform, creates positive vibes and a feeling of trust. This is a general marketing strategy that was also used by Donald Trump’s media and technology group before the launch of their new social platform Truth Social. In this post, we will look at how this strategy of Truth Social influencers and companies involved failed and what Truth Social Influencers said about it.
Truth Social was launched by TMTG on 21 February 2022. The launch was followed by many registrations that failed the servers. Eventually, a waiting list was created where users had to wait until they registered. This platform was launched in response to the ban that was imposed on Donald Trump from Twitter and Facebook.
TMTG shortlisted a few social influencers they could use to boost the audience at the launch time. However, some influencers reacted negatively to the emails received. Let’s discuss in detail the Truth Social Influencers and Companies Involved.
Which Social Influencers Were Chosen By TMTG?
Many influencers received emails from TMTG. However, few among them were openly anti-Trump. These influencers revealed that they received emails from the TMTG to bid for the early sign-up to the Truth Social app. Two Truth social influencers highlighted this to the public.
1. Jeremy Jacobowitz
Jacobowitz is a TikTok star with almost 159,700 followers. He revealed that he received mail from TMTG to reserve an early spot on the Truth Social with his preferred username or handle. Jacobowitz is openly anti-Trump, and he posts his videos and photos against Trump.
