To survive against the other cut-throat brands and influencers, you need to have a streamlined social media marketing strategy in place. Whether that be <a href=\"https:\/\/www.verriberri.co.uk\/portfolio_page\/wedding-venue-social-media\/\">marketing for hotels,&nbsp;social media for restaurants, <\/a>fashion retail, or any other kind of business,<a href=\"https:\/\/www.verriberri.co.uk\/hotel-spa-marketing-and-pr-agency\/\"> you need&nbsp;social media marketing.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You also need to capitalise on the up and coming social media trends of 2020. Having your finger on the online pulse is a crucial. The team here at VerriBerri, an agency that deals with&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.verriberri.co.uk\/portfolio_page\/social-media-management\/\">social media marketing in Essex<\/a>, have compiled just some of the trends that are worth knowing about and implementing over the next year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-background\" href=\"https:\/\/www.verriberri.co.uk\/contact-us\/\" style=\"background-color:#dccfe9\"><strong>DID YOU KNOW WE OFFER GUARANTEED RESULTS? CLICK HERE TO CONTACT US<\/strong><\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Know Your Niche And Play To Your Strengths Not Your Weaknesses<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.verriberri.co.uk\/social-media\/\">The big players in the social media game, namely Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter and Instagram,<\/a> are obviously worth utilising. If you don\u2019t make use of them, you\u2019re lumbering yourself with a distinct disadvantage. However, you need to make sure you\u2019re targeting the right social media platform. Gamers for example, make use of&nbsp;<em>Twitch<\/em>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<em>Discord<\/em>. Businesses of various kinds opt for&nbsp;<em>LinkedIn<\/em>&nbsp;whilst influencers, celebrities and more personal brands exploit the personable nature of&nbsp;<em>TikTok<\/em>. <br \/><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text alignwide has-media-on-the-right\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.verriberri.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/instagram-shouldnt-be-ignored-verriberri-social-media-marketing-1024x683.jpeg\" alt=\"instagram agency essex\" class=\"wp-image-11487\"\/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p class=\"has-normal-font-size\">Whatever you decide to use, make it targeted. Your business\/brand will inevitably suit one platform best so make sure that\u2019s where you focus your main time and energy. Generally speaking, Instagram, used correctly, is a safe bet to focus on; just make sure your content is as bespoke and curated as possible in order for it to do well.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><br \/><strong>The Rise Of The Smaller-Scale Influencers<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Big name influencers don\u2019t hold the sway that they once did. People that are now of more value to your business are smaller-scale, community based influencers that may not command the vast followings of the big-name influencers, but they\u2019re trusted implicitly within their community. So, any interest or \u2018hype\u2019 generated by these accounts will much more likely convert into potential custom for your business. The emphasis now is on getting a larger proportion of a&nbsp;<em>smaller<\/em>&nbsp;audience on-board with your business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Smaller influencers invite more trust, offer a more intimate feel and provide more long-lasting influence. In 2020, the key will be having many smaller-scale influencers endorsing your brand, ones that have genuine clout and staying power within your particular sector. These kinds of brand ambassador spark genuinely engaging discourse within an online community that is more likely to translate into custom for your business or brand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Use&nbsp;<em>Stories<\/em>&nbsp;To Tell Your Stories<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The humble story, once solely a Snapchat phenomenon now appears (or at least a variant of) on virtually every social media platform, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.verriberri.co.uk\/2019\/11\/11\/instagram-business-marketing\/\">especially Instagram<\/a>. When it comes to growing your social media platforms organically, consistency is key. Consistently posting stories is a great way of garnering a committed&nbsp;<em>fanbase<\/em>. The ephemeral nature of stories, in particular, means that you think you\u2019re getting more valuable and worthwhile content. Essentially, you think that you\u2019re seeing content that other people may miss out on and therefore feel like a more treasured, or&nbsp;<em>special<\/em>&nbsp;follower as a result. Stories equate, therefore, not only to an increased followership, but a higher quality, more loyal follower as well.<br \/><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text alignwide\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.verriberri.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/social-media-management.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13281\"\/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p class=\"has-normal-font-size\">It\u2019s also worth thinking about the type of story you\u2019re posting. Video stories add to that authenticity of a brand or account and feed people\u2019s need for voyeurism more so than photos do. According to Socialinsider Blog,&nbsp;Instagram accounts with over 100k followers post stories on 14.4 days out of every month. Whilst correlation by no means equals causation, there is certainly no harm in posting more stories. Stories add consistency, a much more personable feel to an account and they invariably add professionalism to your account.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.verriberri.co.uk\/social-media\/\">Social media marketing <\/a>is best used in conjunction with email marketing and<a href=\"https:\/\/www.verriberri.co.uk\/pinterest-marketing-agency\/\"> effective SEO strategies<\/a>; getting it right in 2020 is as important as it\u2019s ever been.\u00a0If you feel your business is lacking in the\u00a0social media marketing\u00a0department, then give our friendly team at Verriberri &#8211;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.verriberri.co.uk\/contact-us\/\"> an agency offering\u00a0social media marketing in Essex\u00a0&#8211; a call today on 01376 386850.<\/a> If you want to see more of what we do, then<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/verriberridigital\/?hl=en\"> check out our Instagram page!<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button aligncenter\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-background\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bark.com\/en\/company\/verriberri\/kPNk\/\" style=\"background-color:#d7bcf0\">Read our clients reviews about us on a third party website, <\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our social media marketing agency discuss how in the saturated world of socials, standing out from the crowd on social media is becoming more difficult. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":14383,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","content-type":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[113,119,124],"tags":[133],"class_list":["post-14462","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-blog","category-content-marketing","category-social-media-2","tag-social-media-marketing-essex"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mk.pnkdesign.co.uk\/verri\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14462","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mk.pnkdesign.co.uk\/verri\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mk.pnkdesign.co.uk\/verri\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mk.pnkdesign.co.uk\/verri\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mk.pnkdesign.co.uk\/verri\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=14462"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/mk.pnkdesign.co.uk\/verri\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14462\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mk.pnkdesign.co.uk\/verri\/wp-json\/"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mk.pnkdesign.co.uk\/verri\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=14462"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mk.pnkdesign.co.uk\/verri\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=14462"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mk.pnkdesign.co.uk\/verri\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=14462"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
