Is your social media marketing prepared for 2022? Here are some important trends you need to know about, which you can use to inform your planning with confidence.
Social Media As A Shopping Platform
In 2020, lockdowns around the world forced marketing trends to be online-focused and caused consumers to move their shopping online. The forecast is that the convenience of online shopping will continue to thrive as a marketing trend in 2022, as more consumers keep shopping online. When planning your marketing and your online offering, be aware that while there is more competition for online shopping in 2022, there is more opportunity too.
Short-Form Video Content
Social media platforms have pivoted toward short-form videos that are between 15 and 30 seconds long. Creating short and sweet videos that are punchy, catchy, and memorable is an important marketing trend for 2022. While the main platform that made short-form video content popular is Tiktok, YouTube Shorts and Instagram Reels perform just as well, and present a prime opportunity for brands to reach a younger audience in 2022.
AI Powered Influencer Marketing
It’s predicted that AI-powered marketing is set to boom in 2022. This means that AI will come alongside marketing strategies that use influencers to assess and analyze viewing vs buying stats, making ROI that much more assured. This is good news if you do use influencer marketing.
We hope you feel more prepared to plan your social media marketing in 2022. Best of luck!

Using Facebook for Business: The Basics
This past weekend, I was a guest speaker at a conference for chiropractors. I spoke for about 90 minutes on how to use Facebook and Instagram for your business. During (and after) my presentation I received a lot of questions from the group about how to schedule posts, share them, comment on them etc. This is all stuff I would consider basic, but it dawned on me that many people do not know how to do this so I created a demonstration video for the group. However, everything I am showing will apply to you guys as well so I wanted to share it with you.

Using Facebook Insights to Best Engage with your Audience
I've been writing all these blog posts lately explaining how to improve your social media presence, specifically on Facebook. And, coincidentally, I just spoke on one of my client's webinars to show their fanbase how to review Facebook insights to get the most out of their social media. So I pulled my portion of the webinar together into a video clip to share with you guys. You'll probably notice my dog barking in the background throughout...she gets just as fired up about marketing as I do and couldn't seem to help herself :) Hope you enjoy!
