Social media networks
The top three reasons why people use social media are to stay up-to-date with news and current events, find funny or entertaining content, fill up spare time. On the last place is to promote or support charitable causes. Hootsuite’s perspectives from Social Trends 2021: use social to rejuvenate the online customer experience with discovery, connection, and fun; marketers should diversify how they reach the digital newcommers and to not focus on ageism and stereotypes; smart companies sit back, listen, and then find creative ways of fitting into the social conversation instead of trying to lead it; bold brands start in the boardroom, not the front lines of social. Strong CMOs will use intelligence gathered by social teams to help the organization adapt to new buyer beliefs while balancing the twin demands of building a better business and a better world.
