Facebook Live
If you have a start-up company and have a limited advertising budget, then Facebook Live can be a great marketing tool to drive awareness and increase sales. Based on the latest Facebook statistics, this trend won’t be going away soon as over 100 million videos are being watched by online users worldwide.
Not only that but, the latest statistics have shown that Facebook Live has been performing better compared to pre-recorded videos.
Engaging Facebook Stories
Although stories first became popular in Snapchat and Instagram, Facebook has also begun rising in popularity as it has over 1 billion stories shared daily. Additionally, Mark Zuckerberg, Facebook CEO, also thinks that FB stories play a massive role in the future of social media as stories happen in real-time, where sharing comes almost instantaneously.
Customer Journey Tracking
Made specifically for online businesses, Facebook’s new journey mapping tool helps you understand your customers on a deeper level. This new Facebook attribution tool makes it easier for businesses to track their customer’s online journeys.
Compared to the previous updates, this new tool allows you to view touchpoints such as landing pages, posts, reviews, and ads that lead to a specific purchase. Overall, this is a great help for digital marketers as it allows them to measure the value of individual sales channels.
Personalized Video Ads
Some may not be aware of this, but personalized video ads are actually quite popular with Facebook nowadays. Based on Facebook statistics, businesses tend to use personalized videos as a marketing tool since these videos get 135% more organic reach than images.
For this reason, you can expect that personalized video ads will be a huge trend you need to take advantage of this 2022.
Chatbots
Last but not the least are chatbots. According to the latest Facebook statistics in 2021, there were over 100,000 active bots monthly on Facebook Messenger. This number is expected to grow this 2022. Chatbots are an effective way to not only help you cater to all the inquiries of all your customers, but it also makes your brand more interactive as well.
Before joining in this trend, however, make sure to take these things into consideration:
Ensure that your Facebook marketing plan for the upcoming year is well planned out and your channels in perfect shape throughout the coming months.
