What’s on the horizon for social media marketers in 2023?

Predicting what’s to come is never easy. Proven unquestionably by the last few years. Our lives have been disrupted. Our behavior has changed. As consumers, we expect more from brands. We demand personalization, empathy, value, and proven sustainability.

In order to understand where we’re headed and to support brands, Talkwalker and Khoros partnered to deliver their Social Media Trends 2023 report. The extensive report includes overviews of each trend, plus data-led insights and actions as to how to be prepared. Alongside expert analysis from industry leaders on why and how brands can be closer to their consumers, by prioritizing their needs and predicting their evolving demands.

Experts include Rand Fishkin (SparkToro), Christina Garnett (HubSpot), Jonny Bentwood (Golin), Gini Dietrich (Spin Sucks), Dan Knowlton (Knowlton Marketing), Joanne Sweeney (Digital Training Institute), and more.

Expert quote from Christina Garnett — Trend 10 — Personas are over, you will think communities. “Create a safe space for your customers and audience to connect, share needs, and help each other; all while the brand listens to provide the best possible experience for them. Brands win when they make it about their community and not about themselves.”
Expert opinion from Christina Garnett.

With trendsetting examples from brands like DuckDuckGo, Campbell’s, Starbucks, John Lewis, and Deliverr.

Analysis for the report was performed on Talkwalker’s consumer intelligence platform, with data gathered from multiple media sources including social media channels, news sites, blogs, and forums.
