This means that marketers have the difficult task of trying to garner potential customers’ attention through a wide array of popular social media networks. It is a challenge to stay on top of the shifting consumer behaviors and technological changes in the advancing social media landscape. Social media marketers have to keep their fingers on the pulse of the latest trends in order to be effective for their businesses. It requires a commitment to daily learning and application as well as a willingness to abandon what no longer works even if it worked 3 months ago. One way to stay ahead is to be forward-thinking. We combed through the predictions of some of the industry’s brightest pundits to share what’s hot in social media in 2017. ![]() The other evening, I had the privilege of enjoying a fabulous meal with a client at one of Denver’s best restaurants. We were discussing a social media and digital marketing strategy targeting young professional chefs. During the conversation, my client suggested that I speak with two of the chefs that were in the process of creating our delectable dinner. While the two chefs were close in age and general demographics, I was struck by how very different they were. One was a well-groomed, outdoor enthusiast with a passion for the finer things in life. The other a Bohemian homebody with a zest for simple yet beautiful things. As you can imagine, the two chefs had completely different needs and wants. The conversation, while fascinating, was also a reminder of the importance of personalization and customization in content marketing. While personalization is generally associated with email marketing, it is equally important in developing and executing a successful content strategy. |
