Historically, one of the best marketing strategies is word-of-mouth advertising. People are more likely to try a product or service if someone they know and trust recommends it. Influencer marketing, which involves a collaboration between a brand and an individual with a specific niche and large online following, takes that concept and modernizes it for today\u2019s new digital era.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
93% of marketing professionals<\/a> use influencer marketing for reasons like:\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n While this form of social media marketing isn\u2019t new to 2023, brands are seizing the opportunity to build more authentic connections with their target audience by appointing long-term \u201cbrand ambassadors.\u201d These mutually beneficial relationships allow the brand to build lasting relationships with their influencer partners, while the influencers can maintain trust with their audience by promoting the same brand over time.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Video-based content is becoming a key focus area in social media marketing because it can capture a viewer\u2019s attention for a longer amount of time compared to static posts. From TikToks to Instagram reels, marketers are using bite-sized videos to drive engagement and increase brand awareness among millennials and Gen Z.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Live streaming is also proving to be an effective marketing trend. According to one report<\/a>, consumers spent around 548 billion hours streaming through mobile devices in 2021. When paired with influencer marketing, live streaming allows potential customers to engage with influencers familiar with the product, talk about the product, and make the purchase all while watching the stream.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n From TikTok trends to #OOTD posts, user-generated content is the new word-of-mouth. This type of content is original and brand-specific, created by consumers rather than brands. Unboxing videos, makeup reviews, branded hashtags, and photo tags are all examples of how brands can take advantage of user-generated content.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Because anyone can create user-generated content, adding this tactic to your marketing strategy can take your brand\u2019s authenticity to the next level. Consumers are 2.4 times more likely<\/a> to trust user-generated content compared to content created by brands\u2014proving that now\u2019s the time to prioritize authenticity in your marketing strategy.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Google is set to phase out third-party cookies by the end of next year due to rising privacy concerns. Cookies play a role in target marketing by tracking a user’s behavior across the web so marketers can deliver a customized experience. In order to remain relevant, brands are testing alternative targeting solutions to continue developing highly personalized content and ads.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n As the name would suggest, Agile marketing is an approach inspired by the Agile methodology<\/a>. It\u2019s a way of working that involves rapid iterations rather than one big project.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Agile marketing emphasizes real-time collaboration (over silos and hierarchy) and is designed so that marketers can respond more easily to change.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Benefits of Agile marketing include:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Whats on the cards for 2023?
