It's that special time of year when we look into the future of social media and digital marketing with my big predictions. 

Some of my 2023 predictions were perfect, and some others not so much. But that's the nature of the quickly evolving world of digital marketing. I can't get it right all the time, but it's definitely fun giving it a try.  

Things move so quickly online that you have to plan for the future while being ready to adjust for everything you can't plan for (do I need to mention how quickly AI became a part of our lives as marketers in 2023?).

With 2024 right around the corner and off the heels of hosting my in-person retreat, I have some exciting predictions to share for the new year, with a big emphasis on reconnecting with what makes us uniquely human and the evolution of community building and engagement.

In this episode of the podcast, I talk about: 

• The major differences between tactics and strategies
• My 2023 predictions: The hits and misses
• The crossroads of Artificial Intelligence and our humanity
• Walmart's Experiential Marketing Mean Girls Moment
• Replacing the word audience with something more relatable

Sharing that viral post on social media is all fun and games until the lawyers start calling!

While you're trying to keep the social part of social media alive by sharing the latest meme or remixing someone else's content, as a business, you can't ignore the potential risk of using someone's content without their permission. 

But when is the time right? When is it safe? Should you stick to original content only?

That's what we're exploring in today's episode with Autumn Witt Boyd, who runs a law firm for coaches and online educators. 

Autumn is giving us a lawyer's perspective on the complexities surrounding viral videos, memes, and remix culture and how businesses can begin to think differently before reposting without permission.  

Learn the importance of understanding your rights and responsibilities when using viral videos and memes, and if you've ever wondered about the ins and outs of copyright law as a creator and business owner, we've got you covered in today's episode.

In this episode of the podcast, we talk about: 

• How Facebook Groups launched Autumn's business
• Why we don't see lawsuits over memes and remix culture
• A simple DM strategy to avoid copyright infringement
• Showing the original creator some love in the reposts
• The future of protecting your online content

Let's talk about a myth that's been disguising itself as social media advice: The more you post, the faster you'll grow on social media. 

I'm here to tell you it's not true. The numbers don't support posting 10 times a day as a fast track to social media success. 

Can you imagine if that was true? Just think how much content overload we would be in if that were true. Thankfully, after working in social media for decades now, I can confirm that there is a simpler, less time-intensive way to grow on social. 

Let's talk about the three main ways I use to help my clients and my biz grow without falling for the content overload myth.

In this episode of the podcast, I talk about: 

• Time-focused vs Output-focused content strategy
• Creating an experience with your content
• The true nature of social media
• Favorite Starbucks order type of relationships
• Finding non-competitor collaborators
• What to do before you start running ads

…And More!

Do you like to jump on the latest social media trends? Social media is meant to be fun and, well, social. So, the popularity and evolution of trends make so much sense. 

As brands, we see everyone else having fun, so why can't we join in? Does our content have to be all about business?

It's easy to think that trends are all about hopping on a bandwagon and have no real value, but it's so much more than that, especially for business owners. 

In today's episode, let's talk about the importance of aligning trends with your brand values, avoiding cringe-worthy moments, and staying true to your audience. We'll even touch on the ethical considerations of leveraging trends and the potential pitfalls to watch out for.

So, whether you're a content creator, business owner, or just want to nerd out on the history and evolution of trending content, this episode is for you.

In this episode of the podcast, I talk about: 

• Pre-social media trend chasing
• The decentralization of content creation
• The new rules for trending content
• Why trends have a shorter life expectancy
• The secret ingredient that makes a trend a trend
• How to know if jumping on a trend is right for your business
• The danger of going all-in on trending content
