NEW: The eMarketer Social Media Research Collection

eMarketer Social Media Trends Bundle

Your company no doubt has a social media strategy… but is it working?

If you're like most marketers, you see encouraging signs in your social media outreach—page views, follows, likes, retweets. But how do you turn that interest into actual revenue?

You're not alone if you're asking. It's the $64,000 question that even the most successful marketers are struggling with.

Let's face it: There's no doubt about the leading edge in marketing—it's social media. And as with any new marketing tool, fascinating breakthroughs go hand in hand with surprising failures.

Not only are new social media platforms sprouting up everywhere you look, the blue chip social media names—Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, etc.—are evolving right before our eyes.

And let's not forget that all consumer behavior changes, but the most avid social media users—Millenials—are the most discerning and demanding potential customers on the planet.

So your marketing challenge is a formidable one. Adapt your advertising and marketing to a rapidly-changing demographic through a medium that will likely look entirely different just 5 years from now.

We've got the solution.
