The High Point Market Authority (HPMA) calls for applicants to its Design Influencers Tour
program at High Point Market, organized in partnership with
Esteem Media. Interior designers and other design-focused influencers must apply by Friday, February 14 to be
considered.
During April Market, ten design influencers will tour sponsoring showrooms for two days to identify their top
home furnishing and decor finds. Candidates will be selected based on their social media or blog following,
content quality and posting frequency. Selected influencers will be tasked with reporting, from their unique
perspective, on the home furnishings products and other High Point Market experiences they encounter after
visiting each stop on the organized tour.
In exchange for participating this season, HPMA and Esteem Media will provide each influencer with a fee for
creator services, along with accommodations for travel expenses.
“Influencers across the home design categories are encouraged to apply,” says Adam Japko, founder of
Esteem Media and the Design Influencers Leadership Conference. “Through their extensive social media
reach, each influencer plays a role in elevating brand exposure for our sponsors.”
“The Design Influencers Tour also benefits sponsoring showrooms,” adds Tammy Covington, HPMA
president and CEO. “These exhibitors will enjoy the spotlight as our design influencers share their
findings on social media.”
The Spring Market tour dates are set for April 27-28. Prospective influencers must complete the online submission form by 5 p.m. ET on
February 14.
