Social Media Schau: Episode 13 [GER]
What are the hottest trends on Instagram, LinkedIn, and beyond? Social Media Schau delivers the most relevant developments every week, puts them into strategic context, and translates them into concrete to-dos for decision-makers.
Finally Bringing Clarity to the Social Media Update Jungle
New features every week, new platform dynamics, new hype cycles. Anyone responsible for social media knows the problem: everyone is talking, but hardly anyone is providing context.
This is exactly where Social Media Schau comes in.
Verena Gründel, host and Director Brand & Communications at DMEXCO, and Nemo Tronnier, founder and managing director of Social DNA, filter out three to five topics each week that truly matter—and don’t just tell you what’s happening, but also what you should do next.
