Trends 📈
Me On My Way trend: Use this sound with the Capcut template and text overlay to share some funny situations or life experiences with your audience. This trend has taken a life of its own and creators made it their own by adding their own variations.
Where’s Your Home trend: Use this sound and film yourself hugging air and then a loved one. This gives all the feelings especially as we approach the end of the year.
Happy Happy Happy trend: Use this sound and share with your audience via a text overlay something silly that makes you extremely happy and giddy.
Holiday content: Christmas and New year's is almost upon us. Holiday content is extremely popular at this time of the year. If you don't celebrate Christmas, you can share with your audience what you are celebrating instead or make it your own.
Memes 🤣
Spotify Wrapped memes: The end of the year is almost here and that brings with it the latest edition of Spotify Wrapped. Spotify is spilling the beans about what their users love to listen to, a lot of Taylor Swift and Bad Bunny apparently, and the internet took it upon itself to serve us some hilarious memes.
Falling For Christmas memes: Lindsay Lohan just made a comeback with the release of her new Christmas movie. The holiday clichés and Lohan's charm have made this a successful release. The internet, however does like to meme even one of its pop culture icons.

Our Two Cents on Social Media Marketing 🧙♂️
Use social media management tools, like Nuelink, to keep your social media marketing plan running without investing much time and resources.
While it is tempting to keep pitching your products on social media this holiday season, always make sure to complement your content with some fun and educational posts.
Spicing up your content with new formats is always a good idea. Run a contest on your social media this holiday season to drive up your metrics and spread the word about your brand.
Run a hashtag campaign. Your usual industry hashtags are great but the season comes with its own hashtags. These hashtags present even greater chances of being pushed to and discovered by a new audience.
I hope you enjoyed this week's Nuesletter by Nuelink. Stay tuned for the latest news, tips, and more!
See you next week!
