August 23, 2023
From the success of the Women’s World Cup to waning interest in Threads, here are some trends in digital marketing to be aware of this week.
Marketers Benefit From Women’s World Cup
This year’s FIFA Women’s World Cup wrapped up with the final on Sunday, and marketers are looking back on a very successful tournament. Viewership broke new records, and a bevy of creative ad campaigns proved popular with fans both on TV and online.
Adidas, for example, hit the right note with its “Play Until They Can’t Look Away” video:
But perhaps the most creative approach was this video by French company Orange. It seemed to be showing amazing skills by stars of the men’s game, only to reveal halfway through that the video had been digitally manipulated. The impressive footage was really from women’s football.
It’s a clever way to challenge stereotypes, and the video achieved millions of views and was shared widely on social media.
Threads Struggles to Gain Traction
Planning to use Threads for your digital marketing? It’s always a good idea to try a new platform, but proceed with caution: a recent Ipsos poll shows that US consumers have little to no interest in it.
Threads enjoyed an impressive start last month, signing up 100 million users in its first week. But this poll suggests that although many people tried it out, they may not all stick around. Indeed, separate data from SimilarWeb shows a dramatic drop in daily active users since the early peak in July.
Instead, keep your marketing efforts spread across the more established social media platforms. But monitor the latest digital marketing trends for Threads to see if it’s worth investing more. Read our social media marketing tutorials for more ideas.
