11. Brands going viral on TikTok
Pepsi achieved over 23 billion views with the hashtag
#SwagStepChallenge, becoming the biggest ever
campaign to hit TikTok.
". . . all major social media
platforms start off with a young
user base, usually in the age
bracket of 16-25. However, those
demographics change and new
social platforms, like TikTok, steal
the younger audiences because
of their creativity and
innovation."
Clean & Clear’s #UnbottleApnaSwag campaign
focused on 5 different female personalities and
challenged their audience to choose the one that
resonated with them. It achieved 15 billion view.

12. The expert view
"The emerging players in social
media marketing right now are
definitely having a considerable
impact on consumers and the
relationships they have with
brands.

13. The expert view
“The actual usage of social
media continues to grow with
new platforms, like TikTok,
making huge gains over rivals
such as Facebook. The shift
appears to be more of where
people choose to be social
online, and how they engage,
rather than any significant
decline in total time spent using
social media.

14. Trend 02
Social media wellness will
be an essential part of
consumer engagement

15. Close to 100k mentions of “social media wellness” on social media in 2019

16. More than a third of users taking a detox

Goodnight Chrome - App that help you
stay focused on real-world tasks, cutting

half of the year.
More conversations around
risk

25. Putting out Fyres in influencer marketing
Fyre Festival was a fraudulent luxury
music festival founded by Billy
McFarland, CEO of Fyre Media Inc,
and rapper Ja Rule
The event was promoted on
Instagram by "social media
influencers" including Kendall
Jenner, Bella Hadid, Hailey Baldwin
and Emily Ratajkowski, many of
whom did not initially disclose they
had been paid to do so.
But ran into a whole host of issues,
leading to the arrest of McFarland
and inspiring a documentary film.
