Algorithm shake-up

If your content’s been flopping lately, it’s not just you. Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn have all shaken up their algorithms and what worked last year (or even last month) might not cut it anymore. Platforms are getting smarter, feeds are getting tighter, and brands that don’t adapt? They’re disappearing. Here’s…

Trust is the secret weapon in marketing

You can have the best campaign, the smartest strategy, and the flashiest creative, but if your audience doesn’t trust you, none of it matters. In B2B marketing, trust is everything. It’s what turns a casual buyer into a loyal customer, a one-off project into a long-term partnership, and a client…

Social snapshot: The algorithm apocalypse

Another week, another algorithm shake-up. If your engagement has dropped or your content is disappearing into the void, it’s not you. It’s the platforms. AI is tightening its grip, engagement metrics are shifting, and the old tricks won’t cut it anymore. Here’s what has changed. Facebook…

AI for social advertising – missing the mark?

Social Snapshot: The short-form video obsession

Short-form video is dominating social content. With TikTok holding its ground in the U.S., and YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels, and Snapchat Spotlight innovating at breakneck speed, the opportunities have never been greater. Or riskier. But it’s not just about the platform. Competition is stepping up and there…

Why the basics matter

It’s tempting to focus on the latest trends and shiny innovations. But here’s the truth: without a strong foundation, even the most advanced strategies will fail. That’s why revisiting and mastering the basics is more important than ever. The numbers speak volumes Did you know that organisations with aligned…

Social snapshot: The ‘TikTok Ban’ Drama

But are brands keeping up?…

Are links in social posts killing your engagement?

Links are a double-edged sword in social media. They can drive traffic, but they also risk cutting your engagement. Platforms are rewriting the rules to keep users on their apps.

Organic social and the money pit

For B2B marketers, organic social is ever-present. Whether it’s X in accounting or Y in HR, there is constant badgering for departments to share content on social to promote their activities. Unfortunately, this is screaming into the void at the expense of better spent time and resources. There’s the adage…

How synthetic personas (could) supercharge social marketing

If you think you know your audience, think again. Social media audiences are evolving faster than you can say “algorithm change,” and relying on generic customer profiles just won’t cut it anymore. That’s where synthetic personas could come into play. Now, before you roll your eyes at another “silver bullet” marketing solution, hear me out. I’m not here to sell you a dream. Synthetic personas can be powerful, but let's be pragmatic – they’re not a guaranteed success and in fact may just be a fantasy.

Short-form content is social’s best friend

Whether you’re posting it or consuming it, short-form content for social is winning on every platform. Videos that seem to be decreasing in length and copy that’s becoming more and more brief are telling us one thing; ‘I just don’t have the patience’. As marketers, it’s not easy telling an…
