2019 Social Media Trends: Top Highlights

Big Data will drive change in social media just like in other industries. In other words, brands will have to find the right data and uphold data transparency to succeed. To attain the required level of data maturity, businesses will be forced to spend significantly on social and PR budgets. As a result, we could see PR and social media marketing merging.

Another major prediction is the full adoption of AI in social media. We’ve already seen a few brands use chatbots to engage customers and provide selected customer services. Expect more of these bots and several other AI-powered social media. Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) are other innovative technologies that will find a way into social media.
