Trends 📈
Turning my mom into me trend: This is a fun and engaging new trend that has been making the rounds on social media. You do need a bit of help from your mom for this one. All you do is film your mom in her usual attire and then dress her in your clothes. This shows how styling can age people. You can also involve your dad too.
2022 recap: 2022 has come to a close and it's now time to reflect on the year as a whole. These recaps are very popular around this time of year. You can do a recap of your personal life, your business, your house renovation, or your year in general. Anything that you would like to share with your audience.
2023 New Year resolutions: As we venture to a new year, sharing your resolutions for the new year is a relevant and engaging post idea. You can do one for your life or one for your business.

Memes 🤣
Twitter is down memes: And we are back with another update in the Twitter saga. Twitter suffered another huge outage this week which left thousands of users unable to access their accounts. #twitterisdown started trending and that was soon followed by a sea of memes.
New Year memes: It is that time of year when we reflect on our year with some funny memes. You know I had to include a Zoolander inspired New Year meme because it is still the "it" meme at the moment.

Our Two Cents on Social Media Marketing 🧙♂️
Review your hashtags and offer variety. Make sure to include unique hashtags for your business and industry and generic ones that existing and potential clients can discover you by.
Make sure to compile a library of “soft content” to break up the continuous pitching content. Soft content can be anything from testimonials and thank you messages to celebrating your employees on social media.
Avoid crowding your social media graphics with too much text. Mostly image-based posts tend to perform well with social media users.
As usual, use Nuelink to keep your social media marketing plan running without investing much time and resources with its automation and scheduling features.
