As "influence" is the memory others have of you and really isn't a rebirth so to speak. To me this is a legacy, memory or possibly something you wrote like a book. This would be a physical action, Karma.

Also your person, physical body not the mind or consciousness, does not continue. That would be reincarnation.
Rebirth is the existence of the Mind into it's next existence in which ever realm it is reborn into.
The Buddha's Mind, after the physical existence, was Reborn into His Pure Land.

This is not my opinion, this is what is taught in Gelug. Which I am a student of and believe to be true.
