Marketing Trends You Need to Know in 2020
With the New Year here, it's time to prepare for the upcoming marketing trends of 2020.
Modern technology is growing and evolving. There are new techniques, constant updates and changes to algorithms. Being aware of these trends is key when looking at your businesses' marketing strategy for 2020.
With a brand-new decade approaching, here are some of the top marketing trends to be prepared for in 2020.
1. Content is King
As Gary Vee always says, content is king. With 2020 approaching, that fact stands. High-quality content such as blog posts, infographics, YouTube videos and more allows you to showcase your expertise to not only connect with your target audience, but also build trust. The more interactive the content, the more it is shared, which creates awareness of your brand. Some examples of interactive content include polls, quizzes, shoppable posts and 360 videos.
In addition to those benefits, content is also what helps boost your SEO; search engines provide searchers online with high-quality content. Content tends to keep visitors on your page longer. Content is King, and always will be.
2. The ‘Shop Now’ Feature
Shoppable posts have become an integral part of online marketing. The number of users shopping on social media has grown drastically and this number is only increasing. According to Forbes, 72% of Instagram users have purchased a product using the app. In addition to this number, more than 4,000 Pinterest users found that 70% use Pinterest to find new and interesting products.
These platforms have made it easier for business owners to reach their target audience through creation of shoppable posts, simplifying the process for users to shop directly from your post.
3. Taking it to a Personal Level
Personalized marketing is overpowering traditional advertising. Viewers like to connect with a personality, infact, according to Forbes, in a survey of 1,000 people, 90% of people said they found personalization appealing. 80% of people admitted they'd be more likely to give their business to a company that offered them a personalized experience.
In addition to this all, personal email blasts perform better than generic emails to an entire list. Take note business owners!
4. Video Content is Killing it
90% of consumers watch video on their mobile devices in 2019, and this number is only growing in 2020. According to Aberdeen Group, in 2019 video marketers achieved a 54% increase in brand awareness and got 66% more qualified leads per year. In 2020, the number will only grow.
Another growing trend is live video. Facebook Live and Instagram Live videos keep your audience watching three times longer than recorded ones. Live videos produce six times as many interactions as traditional videos.
5. Customer Experience
Customer experience: this is what keeps your customer coming back for more. When you focus on building your business in a positive way, while providing top notch service, this gives your marketing a boost. Customer experience, also known as CX is more than just a trend - it is the future. 73% of people say that customer experience is an important factor in their buying decision, according to PWC.
Now the question is, what makes a great CX? Efficiency, knowledgeable, convenience, excellent service and easy payment options are some factors that users value in their CX. More factors include updated technology, a great brand image, a simple mobile experience, personalization and good design.
6. Understanding Position Zero
As marketers, our goal is to get found online and that means getting to the top of search engine result pages (SERPs). However, search engines have changed a lot in the last five years. The top spot in SERP is now position zero, a featured snippet of text which appears above the search results. This prime location provides information relating to the search query and provides the specific link to the page, from which the information is taken.
Position zero is the first, and sometimes only result that will be viewed. This should be one of the main focuses in your marketing plan.
7. Influencer Marketing is so in!
Influencer marketing went from huge celebrities or "internet celebs" with millions of followers, to now, people with a smaller social media following. The reason for this is that these influencers have a more targeted audience.
Influencer marketing is personalized and more authentic as people trust consumer recommendations from a verified source. According to a Mediakix study, ad spend for influencer marketing could reach $10 billion by next year. It's clear that influencer marketing will be more alive than ever in 2020.

Remember content is KING!
#SuedeDiary September, 24, 2017. Last year on this day, I attended the opening of the Smithsonian National Museum Of African-America History and Culture as a member of the social media awareness team. I covered the opening for @vibemagazine and @blackenterprise It was a humbling experience. I sat at the lunch counter there and considered the evolution of protest in America. It was sobering. Today I attended an event at the University of Virginia to raise awareness for racial equality in America as the social media manager for The Roots. It was inspiring to see music used as a tool for social change and political consciousness. Those in attendance we served awareness in the form of entertainment. I definitely felt the power of positive energy in that football stadium. And I'm sure the bands did too! Like the lunch counters, I felt that I was part of yet another historic moment. Not such a bad way to spend a Sunday. #Apeoplesjourney #NMAAHC #concert4cville #MusicAndUnity #DaveMathews #digital #content #marketing #manager #socialmedia #contentisking #direct #produce #edit #shoot #leica (at University of Virginia)
