A KOL, or key opinion leader, is a trusted expert whose opinion carries weight in a specific field, and whose recommendations influence the decisions of their audience.
An influencer builds an audience around their content and personality, while a KOL is respected mainly for their expertise in a subject. KOLs often have smaller, more specialized audiences that trust their recommendations deeply.
