Prominent Gen Z social media influencer, Charli D'Amelio, alongside her family, recently partnered with Halo, the pet safety technology brand launched by Cesar Millan. The new campaign includes a one-year contract for the family of influencers to post regular content on their TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube accounts.
The influencer family will promote the Halo Collar – a GPS tracking system for dogs that also functions as a wireless smart fence, activity tracker, and smart training device. The device will be featured on the D'Amelio family's four dogs: Codi, Rebel, Cali, and Belle.
The amount families spend on their pets continues to grow, and the new partnership between the social media stars and pet brand underscores how various companies are reaching younger consumers.
