The opportunity for social media influencers is a big one: some estimate the market is worth more than $1 billion.
Bronfman, with more than a half million followers across her social media platforms, recently nabbed partnerships with Tampax, Amex, and Adidas. She credits her Instagram presence with helping her land those deals.
