I love these end-of-the-year collections of the most interesting events and the looking-ahead prediction articles. Looking back and looking forward is a great exercise in higher brain skills! I prefer to look forward, so here are a few of my favorite lists and articles.
Looking Forward
Social Media Examiner’s post includes 30 predictions from a range of social media marketing people, including me! If you look at all these predictions as a template for what to put your attention on in 2012 – you’ll do really well in 2012 I believe. I guess we’ll find out in 2013!
Likeable Media’s Predictions Nice Slideshare presentation by Carrie Kerpen
Social Media Today’s post by Brian Solis — “Businesses will have to embrace all of the disruptive elements, such as mobile and social technology, in a new, cohesive organization that is focused outward and inward.” <– I believe that is right on the mark. He references this report –> 2012 Social Marketing & New Media Predictions which I think needs to be required reading for anyone with a business (including all the social media marketers out there…).
And a great compilation of the 5 Must-Reads – again on Social Media Today, but this time by Chad Richards.
There are literally hundreds of blog posts on this subject. You can continue the search by doing a Google search on “2012 social media predictions” and filter it for just this past week.
Enjoy the reading 🙂 I hope 2012 brings you everything and more of what you want, not only for your own particular “world” but for the entire world community.
