520 _aABSTRACT Influencer Marketing is one of the company's digital communication tactics and refers to the marketing of items through social media influencers. As a consequence of technology advancement and digitization, influencer advertising for product promotion and brand communication has expanded lately. The primary objective of influencer endorsement in promotion is to boost both brand recognition and sales by having the product suggested by customers' trusted sources. Trust evolved in this context with the notion of influencer marketing. Although the research confirms that confidence in influencers or influencer reputation, the idea of brand reputation should also be examined. According to the findings, social media influencers have an impact on a brand's reputation. It has also been shown that in Northern Cyprus, the competence and attractiveness of influencers are more widely acknowledged, and branding acts as a mediator. Initially, the advertising sector analyzes influencers, particularly to build awareness in youthful markets by increasing social media coverage among businesses. It is the goal of this study to examine how social media influencers and their reputations affect brand value and brand reputation. Branding interactions will be moderated by trust in influencers and the reputation of those influencers, according to this theory. Purposively random sampling was used to gather data, which was then analyzed using the principal axis factoring (SPSS) method on a total of 157 respondents. All theories are confirmed to be true. Branding's mediating effects are also established. Implications, limits, and recommendations for future study are examined further. Keywords: Branding, Brand Reputation, Influencer Marketing, Influencers Reputation, Trust in Influencers.
