216. October 2025 Marketing Updates: Instagram's Pinned Comments, Smarter Meta Ads & Why Posting More Wins on LinkedIn


Listen Later

Instagram just unveiled two features that could completely change how you engage with your content and your audience. On this episode, Emma unpacks the biggest social media shifts of October 2025, starting with Instagram's deceptively small pinned comments update, which has the potential to transform audience engagement and even drive conversions. She also breaks down Meta's push into AI-powered holiday ads, sharing why these tools can help streamline campaigns but still require a human touch to get the best results. Over on LinkedIn, fresh data reveals that posting frequency now plays a bigger role in reach than perfectly polished content – a shift that makes consistent visibility more achievable. And for the headline update? Instagram is testing a new Reels feature that could dramatically increase watch time and keep your brand front and center even when users multitask. As always, our monthly breakdown is here to help you turn these interesting advancements into powerful, actionable changes you can implement to stay ahead of the curve.

Listen in as Emma explains:

  • Creative ways to use pinned comments for context, engagement, and conversions

  • Why you shouldn't stop running Meta ads on December 31st

  • How LinkedIn frequency is now a bigger factor than post "perfection"

And much, much more!
