Social media has become more than just a trend in society, for some, it has grown to be the primary way of socializing, networking and even conducting business. The sum of people who regularly use certain social media platforms is quite staggering. For example, in the first quarter of 2019, Facebook reported 2.38 billion users. Their subsidiary, Instagram, had an average of one billion monthly active users in 2018. LinkedIn, the world’s largest professional network, houses more than 630 million users.

LinkedIn in particular has promptly become a mainstream tool for businesses for a variety of reasons. Originally launched in 2003 to serve as an online social network, LinkedIn has now grown into a strong content platform.

Facebook Messenger, the “new” email?

Many marketers are saying that Facebook Messenger is the “new” email. Don’t get me wrong email marketing still delivers the greatest ROI as confirmed by the 2018 Email Marketing Census, conducted by Econsultancy in association with Adestra, but messenger open rates within the first hour are almost four times higher than email’s average open rate.

“Facebook Messenger boasts open rates of 70 to 80% within the first hour, which is almost four times higher than email’s average open rate of 20.81%!”
