Let's put the cherry on top of your 2025 marketing toolkit with a long-form episode on 2025 Marketing Trends! To do that, I'm joined by communications strategist Amanda Laird to chat about four things she's forecasting for the year ahead, including: AI operations & optimization — plus the need to disclose how we're using AI in our work 🤖 Big shifts in the social media landscape — including the fall of X, the rise of Bluesky, "free speech" on Facebook & more 🪨 Substack's slow & steady descent from newsletter service to social media platform... 🫠 & The return to IRL events — plus more intimacy in our online spaces 🫂     Tune in for a gently-guided look into the murky crystal ball of online biz in 2025.
