(another) NEW INSTAGRAM UPDATE 📣 Instagram just launched Trial Reels, and here's how they work: 🧪 According to Meta's website, Trial reels are a new way to try out content and see what performs best by sharing reels with people who don’t follow you. 🧪 This way you have more freedom to experiment with new formats and content ideas and get a gut check on performance! Just start by making a Reel as usual, then right before sharing, toggle on "Trial." 🧪 You can monitor your trial insights and if you see it's blowing up, you can tap and share it with your followers. You can even set it up to automatically share with your followers once the trial's over and it performed well in the first 72 hours. 🧪 This feature just started rolling out and is only available for professional accounts right now, so stay tuned! Personally, we're super excited to try this out and see what takes off! It's perfect for any social media manager who's been trying to convince leadership that memes are the answer... 🤪 #socialmediamarketing #socialmedianews #instagram #instagramreels #marketingtips #marketingnews #socialmediamanager

UPDATE ON TIKTOK U.S. BAN 📣 The U.S. Court of Appeals just denied TikTok's bid to overturn the ban - so if ByteDance doesn't sell TikTok by January 19th, the app will be fully banned in the United States. Here's what this means for TikTok's 170 million(!) users in the U.S.: 👀 TikTok can still ask for their appeal to be reconsidered, for a one-time extension of the deadline, and to try to have the Supreme Court take the case 🤳 For content creators and marketers, we recommend keep posting as usual, and remember that video content is still a key part of your social media strategy no matter what happens to TikTok 🎥 Even though TikTok may be a key player in the short-form video trend, it's definitely not the only one! ♻️ You should always be repurposing your content across multiple channels like Instagram and YouTube, which also show up in Google Search Results This is all still unfolding and nothing's official yet, so sit tight and stay tuned! #tiktok #tiktoknews #socialmedianews #marketingnews #socialmediamarketing #marketingindustry #socialmediatips #marketingtips
