- Social commerce works! Beyond the typical influencer strategy, customers are increasingly becoming more comfortable buying directly from social platforms, like TikTok Shop, or utilizing shopping options in the Instagram feed.
- Authenticity is important. Consumers are looking for authenticity and are no longer impressed with overly staged scenes or scripted dialog.

As long form video seems to be making a comeback, one trend I've noticed is to take a longer video and pull a "trailer" version (short version). This allows you to use the long version in your marketing while also having the short version as a "teaser" to use in spots where shorter video works... perhaps the call to action is even to keep watching on x,y,z channel or landing page. Iv'e seen this done often with podcasts and interviews.

This push for authenticity is evident across various platforms and is a key factor in building trust and loyalty with audiences.

Hi @user71174,
I love this approach and completely agree with you. Social media offers the unique opportunity to connect with people all over the world, but it's often used as a bulletin board.
It’s not easy to build real community, but it’s worth it. Thanks for sharing!
