Social Media Trends Demanding for Marketers

Published on August 22, 2010  

Social media continues to rapidly evolve—offering new channels and opportunities for marketers—but keeping up with the latest developments in social media takes work: 65% of advertising and marketing executives say it's somewhat or very challenging to keep up with social media trends, according to a survey from The Creative Group.

Just 35% of surveyed marketing and ad execs say they don't find it difficult to stay on top of social media trends.

Interestingly, social media is nearly equally challenging for marketing execs from both small and large organizations: 65% of those from companies with 100-249 employees say keeping up with social media is very or somewhat challenging, and 65% of those from organizations with 1,000+ employees say the same.


But advertising execs from small organizations do find it more challenging than those from larger organizations to keep up with social trends: 68% of those from agencies with 20-49 employees say it's somewhat or very challenging to do so, compared with 52% of those from agencies of 100+ employees.

    Totally agree, heard the same thing from B2B marketing I spoke with at a couple of Social Media events earlier in the year. Wrote about how to deal this challenge in a recent post. http://bit.ly/94KtbD
