Social media is crowded with information. Know what and what not to post.

In this time and age of social media, we are overwhelmed with information. We browse through our timelines and see lots of different posts. From news to memes, to status updates and photos of our friends. Indeed, it is crowded out there.

There are times that we feel that social media is becoming to be very toxic. Each post of each network of friends that you have seems to have the same undertones, blurred meanings, and what-not. Worse, we have friends who shares just about anything on our timelines including fake news.

Let us then be one less problem in the online world. It doesn’t mean that we have ‘free speech’ that we should always practice it online. The mere excuse of ‘this is my account so I can say anything I want here’ is just petty and pathetic.

Right now, what we need in the online world – especially in social media – is some responsibility, accountability, and critical thinking. Gone are the days that we can make endless excuses about what we post online. But this doesn’t mean that we are setting up ‘laws’ or ‘rules’ to restrict you.

Here are some guidelines on what not to post in your social media accounts to keep yourself (and others) safe, well-informed, and sensitive to the goings-on in the and out of the online world.

Digital Trends to Keep Up With this 2019

The world of business marketing and advertising have continually evolved for the past years and the news is… there’s no sign of it stopping.

We have seen how the entry of the internet changed the different approaches and strategies of marketing and advertising businesses. From traditional press releases or content generation for traditional media platforms, we have seen how the internet gave the chance for business owners to reach out directly through their clients.

Through social media, a layer or two of the advertising processes can be taken out of the situation. To illustrate this point, see illustration below:

Before: Business -> Advertising Agency -> Traditional Media Platform -> Audiences

Now: Business -> (Advertising Agency) -> Social Media Accounts -> Audiences

Before, businesses used to tap the help of advertising agencies to create content for a certain media platform before it gets released to the public. For example, they would tap agencies to for the creation of a TV Commercial before it gets distributed to television stations. Therefore, you have to go through two third-party entities before you can reach your audiences.

But today, businesses can choose or choose not to work with advertising agencies in content creation. There is also no need for them to go through another third-party media platform because they can directly upload it in their own online platforms.

However, with the fast-evolving changes in the digital marketing landscape, it is difficult to take advertising agencies out of the equation. The digital developments this year might become obsolete a few years after so you need to be flexible and fast enough to adapt to these changes. If you are slow to cope with these changes, then you’ll surely be left behind.

This 2019, there will be new sets of digital trends that will revolutionize the field of advertising – again.

And the news is… there’s no sign of it stopping.

In this post, we will talk about the upcoming digital trends in 2019. This will help you set your expectations and adjust your marketing plan to keep up with the projected changes.

Who are the ‘Generation Z’ and why should any brand be concerned about marketing to this specific audience?

The Generation Z-ers are those born in the 90’s up to the early 2000’s. They are today’s young ones – teenagers to young adults.

Unlike the generation before them, the Generation Z are more into the digital stuff. They were born into the world where technology was already vastly improved. Today, they are the market of social media platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.

Crafting a social media marketing campaign for them is not as easy as your usual bread-and-butter, run-off-the-mill strategies. This generation is more particular with the brands they choose, the personalities they follow, and the campaigns that catch their attention.
