Social media marketing changes on the horizon

1. The growth of TikTok
This platform is getting bigger and more powerful by the day. It's becoming overthrow the major platforms like Instagram and Facebook in the not too distant future

2. Dedicated social media hires
Having someone within your office who has ‘time to spare’ isn’t going to be enough as we move into this next phase. More agencies will invest the time and money into professionals in this space in the year ahead.

3. The maturing of influencer marketing
With changing market conditions, vendors and landlords may sway towards agents who can prove their value offering.
A genuine online presence where an agent is seen to be sharing their expertise will be more important than ever.

4. Growth in social selling
Online marketing will only grow in strength, and in that realm, it’s all about the story you tell.

5. Condensed property videos
Our attention spans are getting shorter and shorter. Savvy marketers will be making their clips five seconds or less as they gain a greater understanding of the power of social media marketing.

Trying to hold someone’s attention for longer than a 15 second Instagram Story post is now considered too long. We are urging agents to dissect their videos into very short clips, instead of trying to get everything into one video.
