because influencers, isnt really proper english...
just go with influences, because influencers means people....
and influences arent always people...

Influences. take the comma out after schools. there are not 2 h's in 'lengths'.
how a sentence sounds is not the whole ball of wax. it must be grammatically correct too.

Influences, as influencer is not a word.
