<![CDATA[As social media plays an increasingly significant role in digital marketing, micro-influencers now possess the power to influence public opinion and strategically shape their self-image. This research adopts a qualitative approach using a case study method, with in-depth interviews conducted with four active micro-influencers on Instagram. The findings reveal that the informants utilize nine key components of personal branding namely value, skill, behavior, total look, uniqueness, authenticity, achievement, strength, and goal to create an authentic and consistent self presentation. Self-promotion strategies are implemented through communication styles, visual content, and intensive audience interaction.

This study is expected to contribute to the understanding of digital communication strategies, particularly in the context of individual branding on social media.]]>
