I'm sorry, there's no other way I can say this.

Those numbers are idiotic, and it couldn't be more obvious that they're made up. You don't just pay for "sponsored posts" on peoples walls and magically make money.

I guess there's no way that I can really prove it to you. But the fact that you think those numbers are idiotic and made up only gives me confidence in how good influencer marketing can be when executed well :) Also, the sponsored posts that we used for the app were on blogs, not social media.

This post is more appropriate for http://www.blackhatworld.com/ maybe you'll find a home there.
