Why influencers want you in their group chats
Instagram's Broadcast feature allows users with 10,000 or more followers to create channels where they share casual content directly to direct message inboxes — kind of like a one-way group chat. This exclusive-feeling way of communicating allows them to share commissionable links, giveaways and solicit feedback in the form of reaction emojis and polls. Business of Fashion reports on how this is impacting their work and broader marketing strategies. {Business of Fashion/paywalled}

Changes at British Vogue
British Vogue's Sarah Harris is stepping down as global network lead and European deputy editor for the magazine. She's taking on the title of editor at large, telling WWD that her new role allows her to "still have input" at Vogue while simultaneously "pursuing other projects and opportunities," such as influencing. {WWD/paywalled}
