Bahkan pebisnis menjadikan konten di media sosial terkomodifikasi menjadi konten bisnis. Setiap unggahan influencer bernilai ekonomi tertentu dan juga dihargai dengan tarif tertentu. Metodologi yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah metode kualitatif deskriptif. Hasil dari penelitian terlihat bahwa menjadi influencer kini memang menjadi salah satu cita-cita baru di kalangan zoomer. Di mata generasi Z atau zoomer, influencer menjadi salah satu cita-cita baru yang cukup menjanjikan secara ekonomi. Kemudahan membuat konten di media sosial dan pendapatan yang tinggi dari setiap unggahan di sosial media membuat zoomer menilai pekerjaan sebagai influencer adalah profesi yang menjanjikan sekaligus mengikuti perkembangan zaman.
