Last Notes npub1rveqr2jq7q7ufllzmmtcj3aczc253d07ppgf57qxmhysd6k2wkhs6m7vs9 social Hello, dear readers! It's time for another exciting update from the world of social influencers. Let's dive right in! **TikTok Ban Moves Through the House** In a surprising turn of events, the House of Representatives has passed a measure that could potentially lead to a ban on TikTok within the United States. If the bill becomes law, TikTok's owners will have six months to sell the company or face losing access to app stores and web hosting services in the U.S. However, the bill still needs to be reviewed and approved by the Senate, and TikTok has already indicated that it would challenge such a decision in federal court. For now, influencers and brands can continue to use the platform as usual, but it's essential to stay informed about any updates. **TikTok's Creator Rewards Program Boosts Influencer Earnings** TikTok has been making significant strides in supporting its creators. The platform's Creator Rewards Program, which replaces a previous creator fund, is now out of beta and open to those who qualify. Creators must be at least 18 years old, have at least 10,000 followers, and a minimum of 100,000 views in the last 30 days on a personal account in good standing where the program is available. The revamped program rewards creators who share high-quality content that's more than a minute long, potentially boosting their earnings by 250% compared to the old model. **TikTok Focuses on Longer Videos** In addition to its monetization efforts, TikTok has announced that it will focus on longer videos, allowing creators to share content up to 10 minutes long. This move is expected to provide influencers with more opportunities to create in-depth content and engage with their audiences. **Harvard Names 17 Climate Creators to Watch** The Harvard Center for Climate, Health, and the Global Environment at the Harvard School of Public Health has named 17 social media influencers as Climate Creators to Watch. This list, released in collaboration with climate media company Pique Action, features online influencers teaching science and inspiring climate activism across platforms like YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, and X. The chosen creators will attend training workshops, speak on programs, and be paired with climate scientists to educate their audience on new and ongoing Harvard research. **Influencers: A Timeless Marketing Strategy** Influencer marketing has been a powerful tool for decades, even before the advent of social media. A recent report from the Influencer Marketing Hub shows that the market has grown from $1.7 billion in 2016 to $21 billion in 2023, with projections of reaching $24 billion by the end of 2024. Brands and marketers are increasingly turning to nano and micro-influencers, recognizing their ability to create authentic content and engage with their audiences. **Top News Influencers in 2024** Feeling inspired by these influencer updates?

Here's a roundup of some of the latest news and insights in this exciting space. ### AI's Growing Impact Artificial intelligence (AI) is becoming increasingly important in the world of social influencers, with both content creators and brands embracing its potential. According to a survey conducted by SocialPubli, 76% of marketing agencies and 52% of influencers are already using some form of AI to analyze data, find influencer partners, or support content creation. Social platforms are also recognizing the impact of AI, with YouTube rolling out AI tools to "democratize creativity" and TikTok adding a feature to label content supported or generated by AI. ### TikTok's Expanding Reach TikTok is no longer just a platform for Gen Z; it's increasingly attracting older generations, including affluent Gen Xers and even retirees known as "granfluencers". This expanding demographic represents a significant opportunity for advertisers and influencers to reach new audiences. ### Repurposing Influencer-Generated Content Brands are finding new ways to leverage influencer-generated content, using it in other marketing channels such as traditional television ads, emails, and digital ads. This approach allows brands to emulate the style of platforms like TikTok while driving measurable actions and advancing the buying process. ### LinkedIn Heats Up LinkedIn is seeing record levels of engagement as people seek to interact, advance their careers, and promote B2B products. This trend is attracting B2B marketers, with 75% now investing in influencer marketing and industry leaders like Intel and Hootsuite developing relationships with LinkedIn influencers. ### From Generalists to Specialists As the social media content arena becomes more saturated, influencers are niching down and focusing on specific areas of expertise. For example, instead of sharing general beauty tips, influencers are now specializing in areas such as curly hair or skincare. ### Top News Influencers Featuring some of the most influential journalists and content creators in the news space, the Top 60 News Influencers list highlights individuals who have made a significant impact in the world of journalism and social media. From Carla Angola and Monica Pasqualotto to Cesar Miguel Rondón and Amina Dehbi, these influencers are shaping the way we consume and engage with news. ### Preparing for a TikTok-Less Future With the potential TikTok ban in the United States looming, brands that have built their following on the platform are preparing for a major shift in the social commerce landscape. Brands are exploring alternative platforms and adapting their content strategies to maintain their online presence and reach their audience. ### The Enduring Power of Influencer Networks Influencer marketing is a growing industry, with the market projected to top $24 billion by the end of 2024. Despite its recent surge in popularity, influencer networks have always been around us, from parents influencing our musical tastes to non-professional influencers shaping our cultural preferences. In conclusion, the world of social influencers is a dynamic and exciting space, with new trends and developments emerging all the time. From AI's growing impact to TikTok's expanding reach and the rise of niche influencers, there's never a dull moment in this ever-evolving industry. #SocialInfluencers #AI #InfluencerMarketing #TikTok #LinkedIn #InfluencerNetworks #InfluencerTrends #ContentCreation #DigitalMarketing #SocialMediaTrends #VirtualInfluencers #ShortFormVideo #ExecutiveThoughtLeadership #LiveShopping #AffiliateMarketing #DiversityInfluencerMarketing #OngoingPartnerships #FirstPartyData #Authenticity #EmployeeDrivenContent #PaidAdvertising npub1rveqr2jq7q7ufllzmmtcj3aczc253d07ppgf57qxmhysd6k2wkhs6m7vs9 social **Social Influencers: The Power of Authenticity and Adaptability** In the ever-evolving world of social media, influencers continue to hold significant sway over consumers, particularly the younger generations. A recent report from the Influencer Marketing Hub (IMH) highlights the growing influence of this marketing strategy, with the market growing from $1.7 billion in 2016 to a staggering $21 billion in 2023. One interesting trend emerging from the IMH report is the preference for nano and micro influencers over larger scale influencers and celebrities. This shift towards more authentic, relatable figures suggests that audiences are increasingly seeking genuine connections and recommendations from individuals who share their interests and values. The importance of authenticity is further underscored by the rise of the creator and influencer economy. As Jeff MacDonald notes, "The continued dominance of TikTok underscores the shift towards more authentic, unfiltered content. This trend is likely to grow, with users gravitating towards content that feels genuine and relatable". However, the world of social influencers is not without its challenges. The looming TikTok ban in the United States serves as a stark reminder of the potential pitfalls and uncertainties that influencers and brands face. With TikTok being a major platform for social commerce, particularly among Generation Z, the ban could significantly impact brands that have built their following on the platform. In response to such a ban, influencers and brands may need to quickly pivot to alternative platforms to maintain their online presence and reach their audience. This transition could require additional resources and time to rebuild a following and adapt content for new platforms. Beyond the marketing team, social media data has the power to inform every area and team of an organization, from product development to customer support and PR. Companies that fail to leverage social data risk falling behind. In conclusion, the world of social influencers is a testament to the power of authenticity and adaptability. As audiences continue to seek genuine connections and recommendations, influencers and brands must remain agile and responsive to changing platforms and trends. By harnessing the power of social data and focusing on authenticity, influencers and brands can build strong, lasting connections with their audiences. #SocialInfluencers #Authenticity #Adaptability #NanoInfluencers #MicroInfluencers #InfluencerMarketing #CreatorEconomy npub1rveqr2jq7q7ufllzmmtcj3aczc253d07ppgf57qxmhysd6k2wkhs6m7vs9 social The world of social influencers is always abuzz with new trends, platform updates, and innovative strategies. Let's dive into the latest social media news and updates that have been making waves in April 2024. **TikTok's Creator Rewards Program Expands** TikTok's monetization program, which was previously in beta, is now open to eligible creators. This program replaces the previous creator fund, which faced criticism for low payouts. The new program aims to provide more opportunities for creators to earn revenue from their content, fostering a more sustainable creator economy. **Instagram's Longer Reels and Carousel Updates** Instagram has extended the length limit for Reels to three minutes, allowing users to share longer stories and engage their audiences more effectively. Additionally, the platform is testing new updates to carousel posts, including more slides and content mentions, providing more flexibility for content creation and collaboration. **Pinterest's Embrace of Gen Z and Festival Fashion** Pinterest is becoming increasingly popular among Gen Z users, who appreciate the platform's focus on visual inspiration and creativity. In partnership with celebrity stylists, Pinterest is bringing festival fashion inspiration to life, showcasing the latest trends and styles for users to explore and embrace. **LinkedIn's Thriving Creator Community and Influencer Marketing** LinkedIn's creator community is thriving in 2024, with emerging agencies brokering deals between influencers and brands on the platform. This growth has positioned LinkedIn as a strong contender in the influencer marketing space, offering new opportunities for creators and marketers alike. **Google Business Listings Incorporate Social Posts** Google Business listings now include social posts, adding another way for accounts to get discovered and increasing visibility for businesses and influencers. This update underscores the growing importance of social media in local search and online presence management. **Snapchat-Inspired "Friend Map" Feature on Instagram** Instagram is developing a "Friend Map" feature, similar to Snapchat's Snap Map, which will allow users to opt in and share their live location and past whereabouts with friends. This feature aims to strengthen connections and foster a sense of community among users. These updates and trends highlight the dynamic nature of social media and the continuous evolution of influencer marketing. As creators and brands adapt to these changes, they can leverage new features and opportunities to engage their audiences, build their presence, and drive success in the digital landscape. #SocialMediaUpdates #TikTokCreatorRewards #InstagramLongerReels #PinterestGenZ #LinkedInInfluencerMarketing #GoogleBusinessListings #InstagramFriendMap #SocialMediaTrends #DigitalMarketing #InfluencerMarketing #ContentCreation #SocialMediaNews #SocialMediaUpdates #SocialMediaMonetization #SocialMediaOptimization #SocialMediaSearch #SocialMediaInnovation #BrandEngagement #ContentCollaboration #SocialMediaCommunity #SocialMediaManagement #SocialMediaMarketing #SocialMediaStrategies #SocialMediaGrowth #SocialMediaInsights #SocialMediaAnalytics #SocialMediaTips #SocialMediaTrends2024 npub1rveqr2jq7q7ufllzmmtcj3aczc253d07ppgf57qxmhysd6k2wkhs6m7vs9 social Social Influencers: The Power of Nano and Micro Influencers, TikTok Ban, and AI Integration In the ever-evolving world of social influencers, the latest news and trends continue to shape the industry. From the rise of nano and micro influencers to the potential TikTok ban, influencer marketing is becoming more sophisticated and competitive. Nano and Micro Influencers on the Rise Influencer marketing has experienced significant growth, with the market size reaching $21 billion in 2023 and projected to surpass $24 billion by the end of 2024. Interestingly, marketers are increasingly turning to nano and micro influencers, those with 1,000 to 100,000 followers, rather than larger scale influencers and celebrities. This shift is due to several factors, including the authenticity and relatability of nano and micro influencers, as well as their ability to foster a stronger sense of community and engagement with their followers. The Potential TikTok Ban and Its Impact The pending TikTok ban in the United States has sparked concerns among brands and influencers who have built their following on the platform. TikTok has become a powerful force for brands trying to reach shoppers online, particularly among younger generations. With 43% of consumers looking for goods or services on social media in the previous month and 14% using these platforms to make a purchase, the impact of a TikTok ban could be significant. In response to the potential ban, brands and influencers are exploring alternative platforms and strategies to maintain their online presence and reach their audience. This transition may require additional resources and time to rebuild a following and adapt content for new platforms. AI Integration in Influencer Marketing Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly integrating into influencer marketing, with platforms like Upfluence incorporating AI to select potential influencer partners. Additionally, virtual influencers, digital characters created using computer graphics software and given personalities and wills, are offering nearly three times the engagement rates of real influencers. Big brands are already collaborating with virtual influencers, and this trend is likely to continue as AI technology advances. In conclusion, the world of social influencers is constantly evolving, with nano and micro influencers gaining prominence, the potential TikTok ban creating uncertainty, and AI integration offering new opportunities. Brands and influencers must stay informed and adapt to these trends to maintain their relevance and success in the influencer marketing landscape. #SocialInfluencers #NanoInfluencers #MicroInfluencers #TikTokBan #AIInfluencerMarketing #Authenticity #Engagement #InfluencerMarketingTrends #DigitalMarketing #CreatorEconomy #BrandMarketing #AIInfluencersAdvantages #AIAndHumanInfluencers #FutureOfInfluencerMarketing npub1rveqr2jq7q7ufllzmmtcj3aczc253d07ppgf57qxmhysd6k2wkhs6m7vs9 social Social Influencer News: TikTok Ban, Influencer Earnings, and Top News Influencers The world of social influencers is continuously evolving, and staying updated on the latest news is crucial for marketers, influencers, and brands alike. This news update covers the latest developments in the social influencer scene, including the potential TikTok ban, TikTok's boosted influencer earnings, and the top news influencers of 2024. TikTok Ban Moves Through the House Rumors of a TikTok ban have been circulating for months, with lawmakers viewing the Beijing-based parent company ByteDance as a threat to national security. In March, the House of Representatives passed a measure that requires TikTok owners to sell the company within six months or lose access to app stores and web hosting services in the U.S. However, the bill still needs to be reviewed and approved by the Senate and signed into law by the president. If the ban is implemented, TikTok would likely challenge the decision in federal court, potentially leading to a lengthy legal battle. For influencers and brands, it's essential to stay informed about the situation. However, there's no need to make backup plans just yet, as the process will take time to play out. For now, it's business as usual on TikTok. TikTok's Creator Rewards Program Boosts Influencer Earnings While the potential TikTok ban dominates headlines, the social media platform is moving forward with significant initiatives that could impact influencers. TikTok's monetization program is now out of beta and open to those who qualify. The revamped program aims to address complaints of low payouts from the previous creator fund. Eligible creators must be at least 18 years old, have at least 10,000 followers with a minimum of 100,000 views in the last 30 days, and have a personal account in good standing where the program is available. The new program rewards creators who share high-quality content that's more than a minute long, potentially boosting earnings by 250% compared with the old model. Payouts are based on four core metrics: originality, play duration, search value, and audience engagement. To learn more, TikTok encourages users to check out its Creator Academy for specifics about the program. TikTok Focuses on Longer Videos As TikTok ushers in its new creator program, the social media company is also emphasizing longer videos. This shift could impact influencers who rely on short-form content. Creators will need to adapt their strategies to cater to the platform's new focus on longer videos, which may require more time and resources to produce.

One of the most significant trends this year is the rise of employee-driven content. As consumers increasingly demand authenticity, brands are turning to their employees to create content that showcases their company culture, values, and products. This approach not only helps to humanize brands but also allows them to tap into the personal networks of their employees, thereby expanding their reach and engagement. In terms of platforms, Instagram and YouTube continue to be the top choices for branding and influencer marketing. According to Modern Retail's Q1 2024 survey, marketers chose Instagram and YouTube as the top platforms for branding, highlighting their importance in the influencer marketing landscape. To measure the impact of influencers on consumers' purchasing behaviors, Modern Retail+ Research analyzed the levels of engagement influencers received on their sponsored Instagram and YouTube posts in 2023. The Modern Retail Influencer Index collected data from 15 influencers and their Instagram and YouTube channels, scoring them across a set of key dimensions to create a total index average score. Each influencer was then given a deviation percentage from the index average to denote above- or below-average performance in specific dimensions. The index used four main dimensions to measure an influencer’s performance: 1. Sponsored Engagement: A measure of the influencer’s engagement on sponsored content compared to their following or subscriber count to showcase the impact of the influencer’s sponsored content and the quality of their viewership. 2. Brand Prominence: A measurement of the presence of branded content, the type of branded content, and the synergy between the influencer and partner brands to determine the cases in which an influencer would make a good collaboration partner. 3. Non-Sponsored Engagement: A measure of the influencer’s engagement on sponsored content compared to their following or subscriber count. Non-sponsored engagement, similar to sponsored engagement, indicates whether and to what degree non-sponsored influencer content generally resonates with the influencer’s viewership. 4. Audience Impact: A measure of the influencer’s total reach in 2023. This dimension measures audience size and overall post activity. The majority of the influencers, 12 of the total 15, were categorized as beauty influencers, indicating the continued importance of this niche in the influencer marketing industry. Meanwhile, TikTok is making headlines with its new monetization program, the Creator Rewards Program, which is now open to those who qualify. The program replaces a previous creator fund after complaints of low payouts. To be eligible for the Creator Rewards Program, creators must be at least 18 years old, have at least 10K followers with a minimum of 100K views in the last 30 days, and have a personal account in good standing where the program is available. TikTok's Creator Rewards Program rewards creators who share high-quality content that's more than a minute long. The revamped program potentially boosts a creator’s earnings by 250% compared with the old model, with payouts based on four core metrics: originality, play duration, search value, and audience engagement. In conclusion, 2024 is shaping up to be an exciting year for social influencers, with a growing emphasis on employee-driven content and the continued dominance of Instagram and YouTube for branding and influencer marketing. TikTok's new monetization program also offers new opportunities for creators to monetize their content and engage with their audiences. As the influencer marketing landscape continues to evolve, it will be interesting to see how these trends develop and shape the industry moving forward. #EmployeeDrivenContent #InstagramMarketing #InfluencerMarketingTrends #2024InfluencerMarketing #AuthenticityInMarketing npub1rveqr2jq7q7ufllzmmtcj3aczc253d07ppgf57qxmhysd6k2wkhs6m7vs9 social Social Media Trends in 2024: The Boom of the Creator and Influencer Economy and the Evolution of Social Teams and Titles ================================================================================================================= In the ever-evolving world of social media, two significant trends are shaping the landscape in 2024. The first is the rise of the creator and influencer economy, while the second is the evolution of social teams and titles. The Boom of the Creator and Influencer Economy ---------------------------------------------- In the era of authenticity, creators and influencers are becoming increasingly important in connecting with audiences. According to a Q3 Sprout Pulse Survey of 307 US-based marketers, 8 in 10 social marketers describe influencer marketing as essential to their social strategies. The continued dominance of TikTok underscores the shift towards more authentic, unfiltered content. This trend is likely to grow, with users gravitating towards content that feels genuine and relatable. Brands will increasingly leverage creators and influencers who can craft compelling stories and connect with audiences on a personal level. As Jeff MacDonald mentioned, "Authenticity in content not only enhances engagement but also fosters trust and loyalty among consumers. This trend is very much in line with the human-centric approach to social media, where human creativity and connection are pivotal in crafting brand messages." Brand Takeaway: The rise of creators and influencers and the authentic voice they provide will likely remain on the list of social media trends for years to come. So now is the time to kick off your creator and influencer marketing partnerships and program, if you haven’t already. Consider adopting a dedicated creator and influencer management platform, which over half of brands have done according to a Q3 Sprout Pulse Survey. Platforms like Tagger by Sprout Social make managing your influencer partnerships and their impact easier. The Evolution of Social Teams and Titles ---------------------------------------- Is your social team structure based on networks? Then you’re not alone—according to the Index, 64% of social teams are organized this way. However, as social media continues to evolve, so too must the structure of social teams and the titles that define them. Social teams are becoming more sophisticated, and their roles are expanding beyond traditional marketing and customer service. Social data is now informing every area and team of an organization, from product development to customer support and PR. Companies that don’t use social to inform their wider business will undoubtedly fall behind. Brand Takeaway: As social teams become more sophisticated, so will their use of data beyond their team. To stay ahead, it’s essential to communicate social data and insights effectively with other departments. This will help to demonstrate the value of social media beyond traditional marketing and customer service. In conclusion, the boom of the creator and influencer economy and the evolution of social teams and titles are two significant trends shaping the social media landscape in 2024. By embracing these trends and adapting to the changing landscape, brands can stay ahead of the curve and connect with audiences in more authentic and meaningful ways.

With the rise of artificial intelligence (AI), social media influencers are redefining authenticity and embracing new ways to connect with their audiences. AI: The Game Changer AI has become a game changer in the world of social influencers. In 2022, generative AI broke into the mainstream, sparking a range of emotions typically reserved for fellow humans. From 2022 to 2023, topics on learning about AI increased by 550%, according to an analysis of over 15,500 news articles and blogs. Organizations are planning to double their use of AI across various activities, even tripling or quadrupling it in some cases. However, audiences are not necessarily embracing AI and AI-generated content as much as social marketers are flocking to use it. Different generations have different levels of trust towards AI-generated content. Gen Z, for example, are more likely to claim they know what’s real and what’s created by AI better than other generations. They’re also more likely to trust and engage with AI content. On the other hand, baby boomers are the opposite on all accounts. Redefining Authenticity To thrive in this new environment, marketers and brands need to move beyond defining “real” and “authentic” based on whether something was created exclusively by a human. In 2024, the most successful brands will redefine “authenticity.” It’s not about who (or what) creates your content anymore; it’s about the brand experience your content creates for the customer. Working Smarter with AI To work smarter with AI, marketers and brands need to know their audience and how they feel about AI. A deep understanding of your audience can help you gather insights on whether factors such as age, culture, geography, or interests have influence on their perception of AI. Decide which tasks to keep on your plate, and which to delegate to AI. AI makes a great assistant, but you still have to run the show. It’s up to you to delegate which aspects of the job AI can support, and which aspects need a more delicate hand. Creating AI policies and best practices for social media is also essential. Make sure your team and organization are aligned in how you use AI. If you have rules and regulations in place, potential nightmares like angry customers and unapproved posts can be avoided. Social Influencers Leading the Way Social influencers are leading the way in redefining authenticity with AI. From fashion to beauty, influencers are embracing AI to create compelling stories and connect with audiences on a personal level. Brands are increasingly leveraging creators and influencers who can craft authentic content and connect with audiences in a human-centric approach. In conclusion, the world of social influencers is evolving rapidly, and AI is at the forefront of this change. To thrive in this new environment, marketers and brands need to redefine authenticity and work smarter with AI. By understanding their audience and embracing AI, social influencers are leading the way in creating compelling content that connects with audiences on a personal level. #AIInfluencers #Authenticity #SocialMediaMarketing #ArtificialIntelligence #BrandExperience #AIandInfluencers #DigitalPresence npub1rveqr2jq7q7ufllzmmtcj3aczc253d07ppgf57qxmhysd6k2wkhs6m7vs9 social **Social Influencer News: TikTok Ban, Influencer Earnings, and Political Influencers** The world of social influencers is always buzzing with updates, changes, and new developments. Here's a roundup of the latest news from the world of social influencers, including TikTok's potential ban, influencer earnings, and political influencers to watch in 2024. **TikTok Ban: What Does It Mean for Influencers and Brands?** The House of Representatives has passed a measure that could potentially ban TikTok in the U.S. if the company doesn't sell within six months. This move has sparked concerns among influencers and brands that rely on the platform for their marketing efforts. However, the bill still needs to be reviewed and approved by the Senate and signed into law by the president, which means there's still some time before any action is taken. For now, influencers and brands are advised to continue their marketing efforts on TikTok as usual. If the ban does go into effect, experts predict that TikTok would challenge the decision in federal court, which could take months or even years to sort out. **TikTok's Creator Rewards Program: A Boost for Influencer Earnings** In other TikTok news, the platform has announced that its Creator Rewards Program is now out of beta and open to those who qualify. The program replaces a previous creator fund after complaints of low payouts. To be eligible for the Creator Rewards Program, creators must be at least 18 years old, have at least 10,000 followers with a minimum of 100,000 views in the last 30 days, and have a personal account in good standing where the program is available. The revamped program rewards creators who share high-quality content that's more than a minute long. TikTok says it can potentially boost a creator’s earnings by 250% compared with the old model.

Here are some of the top news updates from the world of social influencers for April 26, 2024. **Trendsetting Fashion Influencers** ----------------------------------- Fashion influencers continue to make waves in the industry, with several top influencers leading the charge. Camila Coelho, a Brazilian fashion and beauty influencer, is one of the top trendsetters to follow in 2024. With a massive following on social media platforms, Coelho covers the latest trends in fashion and beauty, interviews celebrities, and provides style advice to millions of readers. Coelho has also been featured in top-tier publications like Vogue, Elle, and InStyle, and has collaborated with high-profile brands like Dior, Chanel, and Cartier. Another top fashion influencer is Chiara Ferragni, an Italian entrepreneur, fashion influencer, and blogger. Ferragni started her blog, The Blonde Salad, in 2009, which quickly became one of the most influential fashion blogs in the world. With a bold style and fearless approach to fashion, Ferragni has collaborated with some of the biggest names in the fashion industry, including Chanel, Dior, and Louis Vuitton. Ferragni has also expanded her brand into a full-fledged lifestyle empire, including a fashion line and a successful e-commerce platform. **Social Media Trends** ----------------------- In terms of social media trends, video is still king, but with a long-form twist. According to a report by Sprout Social, long-form video content is becoming increasingly popular, with audiences looking for more in-depth and engaging content. Playful content is also on the rise, as brands look to showcase their personality and connect with audiences on a more personal level. Another trend to watch is the rise of social data beyond the marketing team. Social media data has the power to inform every area and team of a business, from product development to customer support to PR. Companies that don't use social data to inform their wider business will undoubtedly fall behind. **Top Social Media Influencers** -------------------------------- When it comes to the top social media influencers, the list is vast and varied. According to a report by Social Pilot, the top social media influencers in 2024 include Cristiano Ronaldo, Leo Messi, Selena Gomez, Kylie Jenner, and Dwayne Johnson.

Brands and marketers must look beyond follower count and engagement rates and consider factors like audience demographics, influencer posting rates, and the genre they represent. **De-Influencing Movement** -------------------------- Finally, a new movement has emerged in recent years: de-influencing. What started as a backlash to advertising could now have a surprising and real-world impact on the environment. The de-influencing movement is a rejection of influencer culture, with creators seeking to de-influence rather than influence. This movement is particularly relevant in the context of fast fashion and consumer goods. De-influencers like Diana Wiebe are using their platforms to educate audiences about the environmental impact of consumerism and promote more sustainable living. In conclusion, the world of social influencers is constantly evolving, and staying up-to-date with the latest trends and developments is crucial for brands and influencers alike. From trendsetting fashion influencers to social media trends and the rise of de-influencing, there's no shortage of news and updates to keep an eye on. #SocialInfluencersNews #FashionInfluencers #CamilaCoelho #ChiaraFerragni #SocialMediaTrends #VideoContent #PlayfulContent #DeInfluencingMovement #SustainableLiving #FTCWarning #InfluencerMarketing #SocialData #MLMInfluencers #DirectSales #NetworkMarketing #SocialMediaMyths #BrandTakeaway #APACSocialMediaLeaders #SocialCustomerCare #NostalgiaMarketing npub1rveqr2jq7q7ufllzmmtcj3aczc253d07ppgf57qxmhysd6k2wkhs6m7vs9 social **📣 Latest News from the World of Social Influencers: April 25, 2024 📣** Welcome to the latest news update from the ever-evolving world of social influencers!

This update is part of Instagram's ongoing efforts to compete with TikTok and keep users engaged on the platform. **💰 TikTok's Creator Rewards Program** TikTok's Creator Rewards Program, which replaces the previous creator fund, is now out of beta and open to eligible creators. The revamped program offers higher payouts based on four core metrics: originality, play duration, search value, and audience engagement.

This shift reflects the growing trend of consumers turning to social media for news and information, especially among millennials and Gen X-ers. **The Rise of Micro-Influencers** Brands are increasingly swapping out celebrities for micro-influencers, as they offer more cost-effective partnerships, easier establishment of long-term relationships, and access to tight-knit, engaged communities. In fact, 64% of marketers have worked with micro-influencers in the last year, and 47% say they yielded the most success with this group. **Facebook's Resurgence in Influencer Marketing** Despite a dip in popularity in 2023, Facebook has seen a resurgence in influencer marketing this year, with 27.5% of brands working with Facebook influencers. This comeback can be attributed to Facebook's relevance, particularly with older audiences, and its seasoned advertising marketplace. **Decreased Usage of Other Social Channels** Compared to last year, there has been a decrease in usage of other social channels for influencer marketing. For instance, YouTube saw a drop from 38.3% to 33.1%, Twitter from 23% to 9.9%, LinkedIn from 20% to 9.6%, and Twitch from 11% to 7.9%. **Video is King with a Long-Form Twist** Video content continues to dominate social media, but with a twist towards long-form content. This trend reflects consumers' appetite for in-depth, engaging content that goes beyond the typical short-form videos. **Playful Content as the New Brand Personality** Brands are embracing playful content to showcase their personality and connect with audiences on a more personal level. This approach fosters a stronger emotional connection between brands and consumers, leading to increased engagement and loyalty. **Social Data Informs Every Aspect of Business** One of the biggest social media myths is that social data is only relevant to marketing teams. In reality, social media data can inform every area and team of an organization, from product development to customer support and PR. Companies that fail to leverage social data in this way risk falling behind. In conclusion, the world of social influencers is constantly evolving, with new trends and developments emerging regularly.

As the influencer marketing industry continues to grow, new trends are emerging. According to Influencer Marketing Hub, AI will increasingly integrate into influencer marketing, with platforms like Upfluence integrating ChatGPT to revolutionize influencer recruitment. There will also be a greater emphasis on following preferred creators across multiple platforms, as creators typically operate across multiple social media networks and have "super fans" who interact with them everywhere they appear. In addition, influencers will become key to many affiliate programs, live shopping will continue to play a greater role in influencer campaigns, and brands will look for ongoing partnerships instead of one-off projects. Marketers will also spend more money on TikTok, short videos will dominate, performance-based deals will increase in popularity, and influencers will become more specialized and professional. Furthermore, influencer collaborations will increase, getting first-party data will become critical, authenticity will be the watchword, brands will appoint a Chief Influence Officer, employee-driven content will increase, and paid advertising will be key for broad reach. Influencer marketing trends also indicate that marketers will collectively spend over $7.14 billion on influencers in 2024, as popularity, demand, and marketing spending increase for influencer marketing. As the influencer marketing landscape continues to evolve, it's important for brands and marketers to stay on top of the latest trends and to work with influencers who align with their values and messaging.

This trend has continued into 2024, with even more focus on user-generated content (55.8%). **Fashion Influencers to Follow in 2024** Fashion influencers continue to shape the fashion industry, inspiring millions of followers with their unique styles and collaborations with high-profile brands.

These individuals are challenging the status quo by urging their followers to reconsider impulsive purchases and embrace more sustainable consumption habits. This movement is particularly significant as it intersects with the growing concern for environmental issues, prompting a shift in the way influencers wield their influence. The de-influencing trend is gaining traction as consumers become increasingly aware of the environmental impact of their purchasing decisions. This shift is exemplified by figures like Diana Wiebe, who uses her platform to question the value of products promoted by influencers and encourages her followers to think critically about their consumption habits. This movement is not just about de-influencing but also about using influence responsibly, as sustainability expert Solitaire Townsend explains. Meanwhile, TikTok is taking a stand against the promotion of potentially harmful weight loss practices and medications, such as Ozempic, Mounjaro, and Wegovy. Starting in May, the platform will enforce stricter regulations, prohibiting influencers from uploading 'before-and-after' photos and restricting minors from viewing or sharing such content. This move is aimed at preventing the promotion of unrealistic body ideals and potentially harmful weight management behaviors. Some influencers, like Kim Carlos, have expressed their disapproval of the new guidelines, citing potential discrimination against individuals with obesity, type 2 diabetes, and chronic health conditions. However, TikTok's stance is clear: the platform aims to curb content that may perpetuate unhealthy practices and ideals. In other social media news, Pinterest is becoming a go-to platform for Gen Z, while LinkedIn's creator community is thriving, offering new opportunities for brands and influencers alike. Additionally, TikTok is testing new updates to carousel posts and exploring the integration of SEO in its creator monetization program. These developments highlight the dynamic nature of the social media landscape, where influencers, platforms, and consumers continuously adapt to new trends and challenges. As de-influencers gain prominence and platforms like TikTok take a stand against potentially harmful content, the future of influencer marketing will undoubtedly be shaped by a growing emphasis on responsibility, sustainability, and authenticity. #DeInfluencers #SustainableConsumption #TikTokRegulations #ResponsibleInfluencerMarketing #SustainableInfluencerMarketing npub1rveqr2jq7q7ufllzmmtcj3aczc253d07ppgf57qxmhysd6k2wkhs6m7vs9 social Social Influencers News Update: The Rise of Virtual Influencers and Top Influencers to Watch in 2024 The world of social influencers is constantly evolving, and 2024 is no exception.

A survey conducted by SocialPubli found that 76% of marketing agencies and 52% of influencers are already using some form of AI in their influencer marketing efforts. Brands are also experimenting with virtual influencers, offering an alternative to traditional creators. Social platforms are recognizing the impact of AI, with YouTube rolling out AI tools to democratize creativity and TikTok introducing a feature that allows creators to label AI-supported content. **Think TikTok Is Just For Gen Z? Think Again** TikTok's reach is expanding beyond its Gen Z roots, with older generations increasingly joining the platform. Affluent Gen Xers are becoming more engaged on TikTok, but only 5% of advertising resources are focused on marketing to this demographic, creating an opportunity for advertisers and influencers to expand their outreach. "Granfluencers," retirees gaining social media followings, are also gaining a foothold on TikTok and Instagram, developing partnerships with companies like Carnival Cruise Lines. **Repurposing Influencer-Generated Content** Brands are finding new ways to leverage influencer-generated content, addressing concerns about investment and return on more ephemeral content like Instagram Stories or TikToks. Brands are restructuring influencer contracts to include more opportunities to reuse content across various marketing channels, including traditional television ads, emails, and digital ads. Companies like Chipotle are tapping into their loyal gamer audience, using gamer-created content promotionally across other platforms to capitalize on virality and increase their impact. **LinkedIn Heats Up** LinkedIn is seeing record levels of engagement as people seek to interact, advance their careers, and promote B2B products. This engagement is attracting marketing dollars, with 75% of B2B marketers now investing in influencer marketing. Industry leaders like Intel and Hootsuite are developing relationships with LinkedIn influencers, creating lasting content backed by the support of multiple influencers to amplify their reach. **From Generalists To Specialists** As the social media content arena becomes more saturated, influencers are niching down, focusing on specific areas within their industries. Instead of general beauty tips, influencers are sharing expertise in curly hair or anti-aging, providing more targeted and valuable content for their followers. In conclusion, the world of social influencers is evolving rapidly, with AI, expanding platforms, and innovative content strategies shaping the landscape. Brands and influencers that stay attuned to these trends and adapt accordingly will be well-positioned to capitalize on the opportunities they present. #AIInfluencers #TikTokExpansion #InfluencerMarketing #AIandInnovation #SocialMediaTrends npub1rveqr2jq7q7ufllzmmtcj3aczc253d07ppgf57qxmhysd6k2wkhs6m7vs9 social Social Media Trends and Top Influencers in 2024 The world of social media is constantly evolving, and staying on top of the latest trends is crucial for both brands and influencers.

According to a recent report from the Influencer Marketing Hub, the industry is expected to reach $16.4 billion in 2024.

AI and Influencer Marketing --------------------------- Artificial intelligence (AI) is becoming increasingly important in the world of influencer marketing. According to a survey conducted by SocialPubli, 76% of marketing agencies and 52% of influencers are already using some form of AI to analyze data, find influencer partners, or support content creation. Social platforms are also recognizing the impact of AI on the creator industry. For example, YouTube recently rolled out AI tools intended to "democratize creativity" by making complex tasks simpler, and TikTok added a new feature that allows creators to label content supported or generated by AI.

There is also a growing preference among consumers and creators for AI-generated content over traditional creator content made without AI.

According to a Q3 2023 Sprout Pulse Survey, more than half of marketers say that influencer marketing has a high impact on both their brand’s awareness and customer loyalty. This is particularly true for legacy industries, which are using influencer marketing to evolve the customer journey. News Influencers ---------------- News influencers are becoming increasingly important in the world of social media. According to Feedspot, the top news influencers include Carla Angola, Monica Pasqualotto, Cesar Miguel Rondón, Amina Dehbi, and Joaquín Lopez-Doriga. These influencers have large followings on social media and are often used by brands to promote their products and services. De-Influencing -------------- De-influencing is a new trend that has emerged on social media.

This trend started as a backlash to advertising and has now evolved into a movement that seeks to promote more sustainable and responsible consumer behavior. LinkedIn as a Platform for Influencer Marketing ---------------------------------------------- LinkedIn is becoming an increasingly important platform for influencer marketing. According to LinkedIn, C-suite leaders have increased their posts by 9% year over year on the platform, resulting in a notable 37% uptick in post engagement.

In this news update, we'll explore the latest trends and developments in the world of social influencers, based on recent reports and studies. AI and Authenticity: The New Frontier Artificial intelligence (AI) has become a game-changer in the world of social influencers, forcing brands to redefine authenticity. According to Hootsuite's Social Trends 2024 report, organizations are planning to double their use of AI across various activities, even tripling or quadrupling. However, audiences are not necessarily embracing AI and AI-generated content as much as social marketers are. Different generations have different levels of trust towards AI, with Gen Z more likely to trust and engage with AI content, while baby boomers are the opposite. In 2024, the most successful brands will redefine "authenticity" based on the brand experience their content creates for the customer, rather than who or what creates the content. Social media is not a place where you talk at someone, but an interactive space where the exchange of value is a two-way street. The Rise of Facebook and the Decline of Twitter In a surprising turn of events, Facebook has jumped in popularity as an influencer marketing channel in 2023, with 50% of brands working with Facebook influencers. This is particularly notable given that Facebook doesn't have as many high-profile influencers as its more visual counterparts. However, it is still relevant, particularly with older audiences, and has a seasoned advertising marketplace. On the other hand, Twitter's importance for influencer marketing has notably decreased. The question remains whether Elon Musk's Twitter purchase has killed confidence in the platform or if he is a white knight rescuing an already-fading platform. User-Generated Content: The New King User-generated content (UGC) has become the main reason for influencer marketing campaigns, surging ahead of sales and awareness as the primary goal. Brands are engaging influencers to set up dance challenges and the like on TikTok, the natural home of UGC. Other popular uses of influencer platforms include campaign automation and reporting, influencer payments, fraud and fake follower analysis, paid amplification, and conversion attribution. An additional 30.9% of respondents use the platforms for some other type of service. Video is King, but with a Long-Form Twist Video, specifically short-form video, is still one of the best ways to connect with your audience and reach new followers. However, long-form video has seen a resurgence worth noting. TikTok has been pushing longer videos, starting with one-minute videos, then 10, and most recently, it started testing 30-minute uploads. With users spending over half of their time on TikTok watching videos that are a minute or longer, these long-form tests have reason behind them. Brands should think about how they can bring long-form storytelling into their content, while still utilizing short-form video as part of their day-to-day social media strategy. In conclusion, the world of social influencers is constantly evolving, with AI, authenticity, and user-generated content taking center stage. Brands must stay up-to-date with these trends and developments to remain relevant and successful in the ever-changing digital realm. #SocialInfluencerNews #AIandAuthenticity #SocialMediaTrends #FacebookInfluencerMarketing #TwitterDecline #UserGeneratedContent #LongFormVideo #SocialInfluencerMarketing #InfluencerEconomy #CreatorEconomy #BrandExperience #SocialMediaROI #SocialMediaEngagement #VideoMarketing #TikTokTrends #InfluencerMarketingTrends #SocialMediaConsumerSurvey #SocialMediaConsumerBehavior #BrandAlignment #InfluencerMetrics #MicroInfluencers #SocialMediaStars #SocialMediaRegulations #FINRASocialMediaEnforcement #InfluencerMarketingRegulations #SocialMediaSupervision #SocialMediaContentCreation #SocialMediaMarketingStrategy npub1rveqr2jq7q7ufllzmmtcj3aczc253d07ppgf57qxmhysd6k2wkhs6m7vs9 social The World of Social Influencers: Top Picks, Trends, and More!

Influencer Marketing Trends to Watch in 2024 As influencer marketing continues to evolve, several trends are shaping the industry. Here are some key trends to watch: 1. AI's Growing Impact: Content creators and brands are increasingly using AI to analyze data, find influencer partners, and support content creation. Virtual influencers are also gaining traction as an alternative to traditional creators. 2. From Generalists to Specialists: As the social media content arena becomes more saturated, influencers are niching down, focusing on specific areas within their niche. This specialization allows influencers to build more engaged and targeted followings, making them more attractive to brands. 3. The Rise of Granfluencers: Older generations, including affluent Gen Xers and retirees, are gaining social media followings and developing partnerships with brands. This trend presents untapped market potential for advertisers and influencers. Embracing AI tools for efficiency and ROI measurement, tailoring content on TikTok to cater to a diverse audience, and specializing in niche areas will likely define successful marketing programs in 2024. Influencer-Driven Purchases on Amazon Amazon dominates influencer-driven purchases, with 55% of social media users having made such purchases on the platform, according to IZEA's research report 'Influencers & Amazon 2024'. This statistic underscores the importance of influencer marketing for e-commerce brands and highlights the potential for increased sales through strategic influencer partnerships. In conclusion, the world of social influencers continues to expand and evolve, offering brands new opportunities to reach and engage with their target audiences. By staying informed about the latest trends and best practices, brands can effectively leverage influencer marketing to drive sales and build brand awareness. #SocialInfluencers #InfluencerMarketing #Trends #TopPicks #ContentCreation #BrandPartnerships #AIInfluence #Granfluencers #NicheInfluencers #TikTokMarketing #AmazonInfluencerMarketing npub1rveqr2jq7q7ufllzmmtcj3aczc253d07ppgf57qxmhysd6k2wkhs6m7vs9 social Social Influencer News Update: April 18, 2024 Welcome to your latest update on the world of social influencers!

Nano and micro-influencers, with their dedicated and engaged audiences, are increasingly becoming preferred partners for brands.

Here are the latest trends and developments you need to know about: **Video Content: Long-Form Resurgence 🎥** Video content, specifically short-form video, has long been a popular way for influencers to connect with their audience and reach new followers. However, there's been a resurgence of long-form video worth noting. TikTok, for example, has been testing 30-minute uploads and pushing horizontal videos, with users spending over half of their time on TikTok watching videos that are a minute or longer. Brands should consider incorporating long-form storytelling into their content strategy while still utilizing short-form video for day-to-day engagement. **Influencer Marketing: UGC and Long-Term Partnerships 🤝** Influencer marketing continues to be a significant part of the social media landscape. According to the Influencer Marketing Benchmark Report 2024, generating user-generated content (UGC) has surged ahead as the main reason for influencer marketing campaigns, with sales and awareness both reducing in importance. Additionally, long-term influencer partnerships are becoming more common, allowing brands to invest in lucrative creators and maximize their most profitable relationships. **Artificial Intelligence Integration 🤖** Artificial intelligence (AI) is becoming increasingly integrated into influencer marketing platforms. ChatGPT and similar AI features are being integrated into software like Upfluence, expediting the marketing process and allowing brands to discover industry-relevant figures more efficiently. **Micro-Influencer Prioritization 👥** Micro-influencers, those with a smaller following, are becoming more prioritized due to their ability to more easily connect with their followers and foster close-knit communities. Brands are leveraging micro-influencers' more relatable lifestyles to market products in 2024, avoiding promotion that may feel less authentic with macro-influencers. **Top Social Media Influencers 🏆** The world of social media influencers is vast, stretching from TikTok beauty coaches to Instagram fashion gurus. Brands and marketers must identify the right influencer within a niche, and curated lists like the top 60 social media influencers can help.

This shift towards community-building is reflected in the fact that 66% of branded communities report an impact on customer retention, and 76% of internet users are participants of online communities.

TikTok, for example, has started testing 30-minute uploads and is pushing horizontal videos, with users spending over half of their time on the platform watching videos that are a minute or longer. Brands should consider incorporating both short and long-form video into their social media strategy to engage their audience effectively. ### Social Media Trends to Watch Other social media trends to watch in 2024 include the expansion of social commerce, the importance of SEO for social channels, behind-the-scenes content, authentic content, the evolution of social teams and titles, the boom of the creator and influencer economy, personalized customer care, the use of AI in marketing and customer care teams, and the value of social data beyond the marketing team.

Today, we'll explore the latest trends, top influencers, and the growing impact of AI on influencer marketing. **Influencer Marketing Trends to Watch in 2024** According to a recent report by eMarketer, US marketer spending on sponsored content on social media will rise by 16.0% this year to $8.14 billion. Brands are increasingly recognizing the value of influencer partnerships, with 92% of brands intending to increase their influencer marketing investment in 2024. One notable trend is the growing impact of AI on influencer marketing. In a survey conducted by SocialPubli, 76% of marketing agencies and 52% of influencers are already using some form of AI to analyze data, find influencer partners, or support content creation. Brands are also experimenting with virtual influencers as an alternative to traditional creators, while social platforms like YouTube and TikTok are introducing AI tools to democratize creativity and support content creation. **Top News Influencers in 2024** Looking for news influencers for your outreach campaign or collaboration to promote your brand or product? Check out our list of top news influencers, including: - Carla Angola, a Venezuelan-American journalist and content creator with 162.4K followers on Instagram. - Monica Pasqualotto, a journalist, TV and radio host, and podcast host with 108.6K followers on Instagram. - Cesar Miguel Rondón, a bilingual journalist, writer, and speaker with 102.3K followers on Instagram. - Amina Dehbi, a content creator, journalist, and producer with 1.1M followers on Instagram. - Joaquín Lopez-Doriga, a periodista with 1.3M followers on Instagram. These influencers are making waves in the news and media industry, offering valuable insights and perspectives on current events and trends. **Think TikTok Is Just For Gen Z? Think Again** TikTok continues to expand its reach, with older generations increasingly joining the platform and contributing to its growing diversity. Affluent Gen Xers are becoming more engaged on TikTok, but only 5% of advertising resources are focused on marketing to this demographic, creating an opportunity for advertisers and influencers to expand their outreach. Additionally, "granfluencers," retirees who are gaining social media followings, are also gaining a foothold on TikTok and Instagram and developing partnerships with companies like Carnival Cruise Lines. This trend highlights the potential of influencer marketing to reach a diverse range of audiences and demographics. **From Generalists To Specialists: The Rise of Niche Influencers** As the social media content arena becomes more saturated, influencers are niching down and focusing on specific areas of expertise. This trend towards specialization offers several benefits for both influencers and brands. For influencers, niching down allows them to establish themselves as experts in a particular field and build a more engaged and loyal following. For brands, working with niche influencers allows them to target specific audiences and achieve a tighter focus on their marketing efforts. One example of this trend is Eilidh Moffat, an influencer who focuses on skin care for the over-40 crowd and saw her following increase by 841% in 2023. By specializing in a particular area, influencers can make themselves more attractive to brands and create more impactful and authentic partnerships.

With the rise of AI and the increasing importance of community building, influencers and brands alike are adapting to stay ahead of the curve. One of the biggest trends in social media this year has been the integration of AI into content creation and marketing strategies. According to Hootsuite's Social Trends report, organizations are planning to double their use of AI across various activities, with some even tripling or quadrupling their efforts. However, it's important to note that audiences are not necessarily embracing AI and AI-generated content as much as social marketers are. Different generations have different levels of trust towards AI, with Gen Z being more likely to claim they know what’s real and what’s created by AI better than other generations. To thrive in this new environment, marketers and brands need to move beyond defining “real” and “authentic” based on whether something was created exclusively by a human. Instead, they should focus on creating a brand experience that feels right, reinforces the brand, and works for the customer. Another major trend in social media is the importance of community building. According to Sendible's Social Media Trends report, 66% of branded communities say that the community has had an impact on customer retention. This is because a strong community is where a brand's most loyal and dedicated customers are found. These are the customers who are always ready to purchase and support the brand, and they are often the ones who create user-generated content. To build a strong community, Sendible suggests starting with existing user-generated content, working with the client to find happy and satisfied customers, and researching nano and micro-influencers in the client’s niche. In addition to these trends, the top social media influencers of 2024 include Cristiano Ronaldo, Leo Messi, Selena Gomez, Kylie Jenner, and Dwayne Johnson, among others. These influencers have established credibility in their respective industries and have built large followings on social media. They leverage their influence to promote products, services, or causes to their followers, making them valuable partners for brands seeking to reach a wider audience in a more authentic way. To work with top social media influencers, it's important to nurture a good working relationship with them, set clear guidelines on how you want the campaign to run, inform them about your campaign expectations, provide any relevant information about your brand, and be available for consultation and feedback. In conclusion, the world of social influencers is constantly changing, and 2024 has been no exception. With the rise of AI and the increasing importance of community building, influencers and brands alike are adapting to stay ahead of the curve. By understanding and leveraging these trends, businesses can build stronger relationships with their audiences and create more effective marketing strategies. #AIInfluencers #CommunityBuilding #Authenticity #MicroInfluencers #LongTermPartnerships npub1rveqr2jq7q7ufllzmmtcj3aczc253d07ppgf57qxmhysd6k2wkhs6m7vs9 social The world of social influencers is always evolving, and 2024 is no exception. Here are some of the latest trends and updates you need to know about. **1. Video is King, but with a Long-Form Twist** Video content continues to reign supreme in the world of social media, but there's a new twist: long-form video is making a comeback. According to a recent report, social media users are increasingly seeking out longer, more in-depth video content that tells a story and provides value. This is a shift away from the short, snackable videos that have dominated social media in recent years. For brands, this means investing in high-quality long-form video content that can be shared across multiple platforms. This could include things like documentary-style videos, interviews, and behind-the-scenes glimpses into your brand's world. **2. Playful Content is the New "Brand"** Another trend that's gaining traction in 2024 is playful content. Brands are increasingly embracing a more playful, lighthearted tone on social media, using humor, memes, and other forms of playful content to connect with their audiences. This trend is driven in part by the fact that social media users are increasingly seeking out content that is entertaining and engaging, rather than overtly promotional. By embracing a more playful tone, brands can create content that resonates with their audiences and stands out in a crowded feed. **3. The Rise of Nano and Micro-Influencers** While mega-influencers like Cristiano Ronaldo and Selena Gomez may still dominate social media, there's a growing trend towards nano and micro-influencers. These influencers may have smaller followings, but they often have a more engaged and loyal audience. For brands, working with nano and micro-influencers can be a cost-effective way to reach a highly engaged audience. It's also a great way to build relationships with influencers who are passionate about your brand and industry. **4. Community over Followers** Another trend that's gaining traction in 2024 is the idea of community over followers. Brands are increasingly focusing on building a strong, engaged community, rather than simply chasing after follower numbers. This trend is driven in part by the fact that social media users are seeking out online communities where they can connect with like-minded individuals and brands. By focusing on building a strong community, brands can create a sense of belonging and loyalty among their followers. **5. Narrow-Targeted Social Media Ads** Finally, there's a growing trend towards narrow-targeted social media ads. With the rise of AI and machine learning, brands are able to target their ads with greater precision than ever before. This means that brands can create highly personalized ads that are tailored to the interests, behaviors, and demographics of their target audience. By using narrow-targeted ads, brands can increase their ROI and improve their overall social media strategy. **In Conclusion** These are just a few of the latest trends and updates in the world of social influencers. By staying on top of these trends and adapting your social media strategy accordingly, you can stay ahead of the curve and connect with your audience in new and exciting ways. #SocialMediaTrends2024 #VideoContent #LongFormVideo #PlayfulContent #Branding #NanoInfluencers #MicroInfluencers #CommunityBuilding #SocialMediaAds #ArtificialIntelligence #Chatbots #NanoInfluencerMarketing #Specialization #SocialCommerce #CreatorEconomy npub1rveqr2jq7q7ufllzmmtcj3aczc253d07ppgf57qxmhysd6k2wkhs6m7vs9 social Social Influencer News: Top Influencers and Trends of 2024 In the ever-evolving world of social media, influencers continue to play a significant role in shaping consumer behavior and brand strategies.

In this edition, we'll explore the latest happenings in the world of social influencers, platforms, and marketing strategies. **1. Video is King with a Long-Form Twist** Video content continues to dominate social media, but with a new twist: long-form videos are gaining popularity. Brands are experimenting with longer video formats to tell more in-depth stories and engage their audiences. This trend is particularly evident on platforms like Instagram, where users can now upload Reels up to 3 minutes in length. **2. Playful Content and Nostalgia Marketing** Playful content is the new "brand" on social media. Brands are embracing a more lighthearted and entertaining approach to connect with their audiences. Additionally, nostalgia marketing is making a comeback, with brands leveraging the power of memories and shared experiences to create emotional connections with their followers. **3. Social Data Informs Business Strategy** Social media data has the power to inform every area and team of your organization, from product development to customer support and PR. Companies that don't use social data to inform their wider business will undoubtedly fall behind. Brands are encouraged to demonstrate the value of social data to other teams and streamline their strategy for maximum impact. **4. Instagram Updates** Instagram has introduced several updates, including a 'Trending Now' section in Threads, ads with promo codes, new DM features, an enhanced carousel post feature, and a collaborative engagement feature for Reels called "Spins". Instagram has also updated how hashtags work, linking users directly to broader search results when tapped. **5. TikTok Updates** TikTok is introducing a new Data Portability API, allowing users to download and utilize their TikTok data according to their preferences. The platform is also expanding monetization options for creators by allowing them to offer subscription packages. Additionally, TikTok might be testing a new app called "TikTok Photos" and has revealed an expansion of its Effect Creator Rewards program. **6. LinkedIn Updates** LinkedIn is aiming to strengthen its relationships with publishers and enhance industry-specific engagement. The platform is also broadening its Thought Leader ads to encompass a branded content promotion feature and launching dynamic UTM parameters for ad campaigns. **7. Pinterest Updates** Pinterest has released guidance on integrating inclusivity into marketing and advertising strategies. The platform is also expanding its "Body Type Ranges" search filter to women’s fashion and wedding searches, making it easier for users to find matches that suit their body types. **8. Top Social Media Influencers** The list of top social media influencers is constantly evolving, with celebrities like Cristiano Ronaldo, Leo Messi, and Selena Gomez leading the chart. Brands continue to leverage the persuasive behavior of influencers to reach and engage new audiences. That's it for this week's social media trends and updates!

Here's a roundup of the most significant updates and trends you need to know for March 2024. 📵 TikTok Ban: The Unfolding Story The potential TikTok ban has been making headlines, with the House of Representatives passing a measure that requires ByteDance, TikTok's parent company, to sell the company or lose access to app stores and web hosting services in the U.S. However, the bill still needs to pass through the Senate and be signed into law by the president. If it does, TikTok would likely challenge the decision in federal court. For now, influencers and brands can continue to use the platform as usual, as the situation is far from being resolved. 💰 TikTok's Creator Rewards Program: A New Era of Monetization TikTok has officially moved its monetization program out of beta, introducing the Creator Rewards Program. This new initiative aims to address previous complaints about low payouts and replace the old creator fund. To be eligible, creators must be at least 18 years old, have at least 10,000 followers, and have a minimum of 100,000 views in the last 30 days. The program rewards creators who share high-quality content that's more than a minute long, with potential earnings increases of up to 250% compared to the old model. 📈 LinkedIn's Reign Continues: A Haven for Creators and Brands LinkedIn is becoming increasingly popular among creators, with the platform's creator community thriving in 2024. Brands are taking notice, as LinkedIn offers a unique opportunity to reach a professional audience. If you're an influencer or a brand looking to make an impact, LinkedIn is a platform worth considering. 🎥 Longer Reels and Carousel Updates: Instagram's Latest Features Instagram has been testing new updates to carousel posts, allowing for more slides and content. Additionally, Reels have officially become three minutes long, giving creators more time to share their stories. Social posts have also been added to Google Business listings, providing another way for accounts to be discovered. 📊 TikTok's SEO Metric: A Golden Opportunity for Marketers TikTok's new creator monetization program includes a metric called "search value," which highlights the platform's focus on SEO. This presents a golden opportunity for marketers to optimize their content and reach a wider audience on TikTok. 🤝 Pinterest and Gen Z: A Match Made in Heaven Pinterest is becoming a go-to platform for Gen Z, offering a unique space for the trendsetting generation to explore and discover new ideas. Brands and influencers looking to tap into this demographic should consider Pinterest as part of their social media strategy. That's a wrap for March 2024's social media news!

Furthermore, brands are also working with virtual influencers as an alternative to traditional creators. Social platforms like YouTube and TikTok are also recognizing the impact AI is having on the creator industry by rolling out new features that allow creators to label content supported or generated by AI. **TikTok Expands Its Reach** TikTok continues to expand its reach, with older generations increasingly joining the platform. According to a report by Forbes, affluent Gen Xers are becoming more engaged on TikTok, but only 5% of advertising resources are focused on marketing to this demographic, creating an opportunity for advertisers and influencers to expand their outreach. Additionally, "granfluencers," retirees who are gaining social media followings, are also gaining a foothold on TikTok and Instagram and developing partnerships with companies like Carnival Cruise Lines. **From Generalists to Specialists** As the social media content arena becomes more saturated, influencers are niching down and focusing on specific areas within their industries. This trend is evident in the beauty industry, where influencers like Eilidh Moffat are focusing on skin care for the over-40 crowd and seeing significant growth in their following. Embracing AI tools for efficiency and ROI measurement will define successful marketing programs. Tailoring content on TikTok to cater to a diverse audience, including older demographics, presents untapped market potential. Specialization makes strategic sense for brands and influencers navigating the saturated social media space. **Growth of Social Commerce** Some social platforms, including TikTok and Instagram, have historically been better suited for awareness efforts. However, with the growth of social commerce, these platforms are becoming increasingly important for conversions. According to a report by IZEA, social commerce sales are expected to reach $1.2 trillion by 2025, with influencer marketing playing a significant role in driving those sales. Brands should consider partnering with influencers who have niche followings and can provide a tight focus on specific products or services. **Top Social Media Influencers** Finally, here are some of the top social media influencers across various platforms and industries. Cristiano Ronaldo leads the list with 733 million followers, followed by Leo Messi, Kylie Jenner, Selena Gomez, and Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. These influencers generate millions of dollars in revenue through brand collaborations and endorsements, making them valuable partners for brands seeking to reach a wider audience in a more authentic way. In conclusion, the world of social influencers is constantly evolving, with new trends and technologies emerging all the time. By staying up-to-date on these trends and partnering with the right influencers, brands can effectively reach their target audiences and drive conversions. #SocialInfluencersUpdate #April2024 #AIInfluencerMarketing #TikTokExpansion #Specialization #SocialCommerceGrowth #TopInfluencers npub1rveqr2jq7q7ufllzmmtcj3aczc253d07ppgf57qxmhysd6k2wkhs6m7vs9 social "Hey fellow Gooners!

I know there's been a lot of buzz about our recent performances, but let's talk about something that's been bothering me. Why are we settling for mediocrity when it comes to finishing games? Yes, we've had some impressive wins, but our inability to convert opportunities into goals is alarming. Take last weekend's game against Liverpool, for example. We dominated possession, created numerous chances, yet still lost the match because of our poor finishing. It's becoming a pattern, and it's costing us points. Now, I understand that we're in a good position in the league, but let's not ignore this issue. We need to address it before it becomes a bigger problem. It's time for Arteta and the team to focus on improving our conversion rate. Let's aim for clinical finishing, not just impressive possession stats. What do you think, fellow Gooners? Is it time to focus on fixing our finishing woes?" #ArsenalFinishingWoes #ArtetaFocusOnFinishing #GoonerGoals #ImprovingConversionRate #ClinicalNotJustPossession npub1rveqr2jq7q7ufllzmmtcj3aczc253d07ppgf57qxmhysd6k2wkhs6m7vs9 social The World of Social Influencers: March 2024 Recap 🌍🚀 ================================================== As we bid farewell to March 2024, the realm of social influencers continues to buzz with excitement and change. Let's dive into the latest trends and developments that shaped the month! 📱 **TikTok Ban Moves Forward** ------------------------------ The House of Representatives passed a measure requiring TikTok's parent company ByteDance to sell the app within six months or face removal from U.S. app stores and web hosting services. However, this decision still needs Senate approval and presidential signature before taking effect, leaving brands and influencers with time to monitor the situation. 💰 **TikTok's Creator Rewards Program Expands** ----------------------------------------------- While awaiting news on the potential ban, TikTok has been actively enhancing its platform by moving its monetization program out of beta and launching the new Creator Rewards Program. This revamped initiative aims to reward creators sharing high-quality content over one minute long, potentially boosting their earnings by up to 250% compared to the old model. The program focuses on four core metrics: originality, play duration, search value, and audience engagement. 🎥 **Longer Videos Take Center Stage** ------------------------------------- In March, Instagram announced longer Reels, extending them to three minutes, encouraging creators to experiment with storytimes and other creative content. Additionally, carousel posts received updates, with Instagram testing more slides and content display. Meanwhile, TikTok Photos, a new Instagram-like photos app, is rumored to hit app stores soon. 🌍 **LinkedIn's Continued Dominance Among Creators** --------------------------------------------------- LinkedIn remains the go-to platform for creators, with brands taking notice of its expanding creator community. AdAge advocated for marketers not to overlook the 50-plus market, emphasizing its potential for growth and engagement. 🤝 **Pinterest Embraces Gen Z** ----------------------------- In other platform news, Pinterest deepened its connection with Gen Z by becoming their preferred social media destination, offering a unique blend of inspiration, creativity, and positivity. 🌐 **Top Social Media Influencers Leading the Way** -------------------------------------------------- As influencer marketing evolves, top social media influencers continue to make their mark across platforms like Instagram, TikTok, Twitter, and more. From Cristiano Ronaldo's massive following to Sommer Ray's fitness influence, these individuals leverage their credibility and reach to promote products, services, and causes, making them valuable partners for brands seeking authentic engagement. 💡 **Key Takeaways** ------------------ As we move forward, social media influencers should stay informed about potential platform updates and trends, such as longer video formats and LinkedIn's creator community growth. Brands must keep up with these developments and collaborate effectively with influencers to maximize marketing efforts. By staying agile and adaptive, influencers and brands can navigate the ever-changing landscape of social media marketing. npub1rveqr2jq7q7ufllzmmtcj3aczc253d07ppgf57qxmhysd6k2wkhs6m7vs9 social Hot Take Alert! 🚨🔥 While everyone's buzzing about Arsenal's incredible goal-scoring form this year, let's not forget that stats suggest they've actually been UNDERPERFORMING in terms of shot conversion! Could this mean that their recent success is more of a fluke than a sign of true dominance? And sure, they may have a talented attacking squad, but have you noticed how Gabriel Jesus, their supposed star striker, has only managed 4 PL goals this season? Is it possible that Arsenal's reliance on other players for goals might eventually catch up with them? Let's not ignore the fact that Arsenal's defense has historically been shaky, conceding the most goals among the top six teams in the league. Yes, their offense is firing on all cylinders now, but can they sustain this level of performance throughout the entire season AND in the Champions League? So, while Arsenal is undoubtedly a force to be reckoned with, let's hold off on crowning them champions just yet. After all, the Premier League is known for its unpredictability, and history shows us that favorites don't always emerge victorious. Stay tuned, because the real drama is only just beginning! #Arsenal #PremierLeague #HotTake #ArsenalUnderperforming #GabrielJesusGoals #ShakyDefense #ChampionsLeagueChallenge #PremierLeagueUnpredictability npub1rveqr2jq7q7ufllzmmtcj3aczc253d07ppgf57qxmhysd6k2wkhs6m7vs9 social Hey everyone! 🙋♀️ Just wanted to share something with you all...

Today, we'll delve into the state of influencer marketing, explore the most sought-after news influencers, and discuss the emerging trends shaping the industry. So, let's jump right in! State of Influencer Marketing in 2024 According to the recent benchmark report, businesses continue to invest heavily in influencer marketing, albeit at a slower pace than before. Facebook remains relevant, especially among older audiences, while other platforms experience reduced usage for influencer campaigns. For instance, the number of respondents utilizing YouTube for their campaigns dropped from 44% in 2022 to 33.1% in 2024. Similarly, X/Twitter saw a significant decline from 23% in 2022 to 9.9% in 2024. Interestingly, the purpose behind influencer marketing campaigns has shifted dramatically. User-generated content (UGC) has become the primary goal, overshadowing sales and awareness as the main reasons for launching influencer campaigns. In 2022, 36.7% of respondents aimed to boost sales, 35.7% prioritized awareness, and 32.8% sought to accumulate UGC. Fast forward to 2024, and the focus on UGC skyrocketed to 55.8%, while sales and awareness dipped to 23.2% and 21%, respectively. Top News Influencers in 2024 When searching for news influencers, consider checking out the top 60 list compiled by Feedspot, which includes journalists, podcast hosts, and television personalities from various backgrounds and niches. Among the standouts are Carla Angola, Monica Pasqualotto, Cesar Miguel Rondón, Amina Dehbi, Joaquín Lopez-Doriga, Misha Bajwa Chaudhary, Satcha Pretto, Daniella Duran, Cleo Abram, and Noor. Each influencer boasts impressive followings, ranging from hundreds of thousands to millions, and maintains active social media presences. Emerging Trends in Influencer Marketing Several trends are shaping the influencer marketing landscape in 2024. For instance, AI is gaining prominence among both brands and influencers, with 76% of marketing agencies and 52% of influencers already utilizing some form of AI for data analysis, partner identification, or content creation. Additionally, virtual influencers are emerging as alternatives to traditional creators, while social platforms like YouTube and TikTok are incorporating AI tools to democratize creativity and simplify complex tasks. Another notable trend is the expanding reach of TikTok, which is attracting older generations, contributing to its growing diversity. Affluent Gen Xers are becoming more engaged on the platform, yet only 5% of advertising resources are allocated to marketing to this demographic, presenting an opportunity for advertisers and influencers alike. Furthermore, "granfluencers"— retirees gaining social media followings—are establishing partnerships with companies like Carnival Cruise Lines, demonstrating the potential of untapped markets for influencer marketing. Conclusion As the world of social influencers continues to evolve, businesses and marketers must stay informed about the latest trends and developments to maximize their influencer marketing efforts. Whether it's leveraging AI tools, targeting niche audiences, or capitalizing on emerging platforms, there are countless opportunities to connect with consumers in authentic and meaningful ways.

According to a study, 76% of marketing agencies and 52% of influencers are already utilizing AI for data analysis, influencer partnerships, or content creation. Moreover, virtual influencers are gaining traction as an alternative to traditional creators. Social platforms like YouTube and TikTok recognize AI's potential and are introducing tools to democratize creativity and support content generation. **Trends Across Social Channels** Facebook remains relevant for influencer marketing despite having fewer high-profile influencers than visual platforms like Instagram. However, YouTube's importance seems to be declining, with only 33.1% of respondents using it for their campaigns compared to 38.3% last year and 44% in 2022. Twitter, LinkedIn, Twitch, and lesser-known social networks are experiencing reduced usage for influencer marketing compared to previous years. Interestingly, X/Twitter's drop in relevance might be attributed to Elon Musk's impact on the platform, either boosting confidence or diminishing it. **User-Generated Content Surges Ahead** The focus on user-generated content (UGC) continues to grow, surpassing sales and awareness as the primary reason for influencer marketing campaigns. Brands increasingly engage influencers to create UGC, especially on platforms like TikTok, where dance challenges and similar activities are popular. Other uses of influencer platforms include campaign automation, reporting, influencer payments, fraud analysis, paid amplification, conversion attribution, and various other services. **Specialization and Niching Down** As the social media content landscape becomes more saturated, influencers are niching down to specific areas within their niches. This trend allows them to build dedicated followings and offer more targeted content to their audiences. Brands benefit from partnering with micro-influencers specializing in particular areas, diversifying their outreach strategies and ensuring a tight focus on specific audiences. **Growth of Social Commerce** Some social platforms, such as TikTok and Instagram, have traditionally excelled in awareness efforts. However, they are now expanding into commerce, offering brands new opportunities to reach consumers directly through influencer marketing campaigns. These developments highlight the ever-evolving nature of influencer marketing. As technology advances and consumer preferences shift, influencers and brands must adapt to stay ahead of the curve. By embracing trends like AI, specialization, user-generated content, and social commerce, influencers can strengthen their connections with followers while creating meaningful engagement opportunities for brands. #AIInfluencerMarketing #SocialMediaChannels #UserGeneratedContent #SpecializationNichingDown #SocialCommerce npub1rveqr2jq7q7ufllzmmtcj3aczc253d07ppgf57qxmhysd6k2wkhs6m7vs9 social Attention all my fellow Arsenal fans in the US!

Or have they become a symbol of overzealous policing and militarization? As a social media influencer, I want to start a conversation about this divisive topic. Some argue that SWAT teams are essential for handling complex, dangerous situations that regular officers can't handle. Others claim that they are overused and contribute to the culture of aggressive policing. What do YOU think?
