In the age of social media, many businesses gain exposure from influencers. An agreement between an influencer and a restaurant owner usually goes something like this: the chef treats them with a good meal and a nice experience, and the influencer spreads the good word to their followers.
Some collaborations, however, can go spectacularly awry. Like this one between a San Francisco restaurant and a local influencer. Just a few days ago, foodie Karla (aka @itskarlabb) shared an emotional story about how the owner disrespected her due to her ‘low’ follower count. Karla’s post went viral and and the owner soon found out whether all publicity really is good publicity.
