Without wasting much time, these are the 3 social media marketing trends to keep inquiring into in detail and to include in your digital strategy in 2020 for any industry.
Micro Video Content
The average consumer attention span is decreasing as more contents are being shared on the internet so as such most brands and influencers have adapted the micro video type of content where whatever they need to say to their followers is being said within a maximum of 3 minutes and a minimum of 10 sec.
These high quality micro video contents are made to engage some and if possible all of the audience's senses.
You know what is even great about this? You do not necessarily need a professional camera or video recorder to create these kind of contents. A good smartphone with or without a selfie stick and you are good to go.
Stories

From micro videos, are even shorter span contents which disappear after 24 hours of display.
Whether it’s on Instagram, Facebook, Whatsapp Snapchat or YouTube stories have come to stay.
These type of contents allows users who do not spend a lot of time on social media see your contents, even if it is in a flash. The rest is up to you to keep it interesting enough for them to be glued.

To add to this, according to Nielsen Consumer Trust Index, 92% of consumers trust influencer marketing over traditional advertising. It’s clear that influencer marketing will only become an even more critical component of any digital marketing strategy in 2020.
