27. An influencer is just a person who has a large audience

It would be similar to a famous person staying there and then featuring the hotel in a video as a great place to stay. This can absolutely cause others to stay there as well.

How would the owner pay the staff? With the additional sales of rooms that the feature might bring.

This is absolutely a business scenario.

Nothing wrong with a person like olivia dunne who has 6 million plus people watching her. She influences a large chunk of them and this can generate business for whoever works with her.
