Thailand's Influencer Marketing Sector Booms Amid Rising Digital Media Spend

Media Intelligence Group reports significant growth in advertising and influencer numbers, driven by a tourism rebound and advanced digital strategies.
Thailand's influencer marketing landscape is experiencing rapid growth, with an estimated three million individuals expected to be active in the industry by twenty twenty-five, up from two million in twenty twenty-four, according to Media Intelligence Group.

The group reported that total advertising spending in Thailand reached eighty-eight billion baht in twenty twenty-four, marking a four percent increase from the previous year, and it is projected to rise by four and a half percent to reach ninety-two billion baht in twenty twenty-five.

Digital media, which is forecast to grow by fifteen percent, is anticipated to capture a market share valued at thirty-eight billion baht.

A key factor driving this expansion is the rebound of Thailand's tourism industry, with expectations of welcoming forty million visitors in twenty twenty-five.

This resurgence has prompted hotels, airlines, and travel platforms to increase their marketing budgets, while heightened market competition is pushing businesses to adopt innovative advertising strategies enhanced by advancements in artificial intelligence and big data.

Influencer marketing remains the fastest-growing segment within digital media.

Influencers in Thailand are categorized into five groups: celebrities and mega influencers, macro influencers, mid-tier influencers, micro influencers, and nano influencers, with the micro and nano segments showing the most significant growth, particularly among affiliate marketers and direct sellers.

In response to these trends, brands are shifting their focus towards performance-based marketing, emphasizing direct sales and conversion metrics over traditional brand awareness campaigns.

Sectors such as tourism and leisure, insurance, pharmaceuticals, government advertising, transport, and pet products are expected to see increased advertising expenditure, while spending in areas like e-marketplaces, non-alcoholic beverages, restaurants, daily necessities, and agricultural products may decline.
