  4. Creator Marketing Must-Have ✨: Micro-influencers are leading the shift due to their authenticity and high engagement within niche communities.
  5. Format Effectiveness 🔄: Carousels are making a comeback as a highly effective and high-performing content format for sharing engaging information.
  6. Digital Burnout ☕: A desire for real-world connection is driving renewed interest in physical events and experiences, reinforcing brand-to-consumer relationships.
