Aren’t you more likely to buy a product if it’s recommended by a friend than if it’s pushed in your face by a brand? Of course you are (assuming they have good taste and don’t dress like the cast of The Jersey Shore at Burning Man). This isn’t just conjecture. According to an infographic from influencer marketing platform The Shelf, 92 percent of consumers trust recommendations from other people—even if they don’t know them personally—over promotional content that comes directly from brands. That’s why 65 percent of brands are already participating in influencer marketing. Smashbox Cosmetics recently launched an incubator for YouTubers to use their studio space and products. Many brands are also teaming up with photographers on Instagram to reach new audiences. Read More >

A slice of our favorite pizza or a meal at a hot new restaurant can cause a euphoric reaction in people, similar to what one feels when watching sports, listening to music or seeing a great film or Broadway production. They all evoke passion. Read More >

Food has the incredible power of capturing people’s attention, and brands are learning from this trend in order to create viral experiences that has people talking day after day.
It started out as the occasional BuzzFeed Food video, which showed a pair of hands making something delicious.
Then, a few more companies learned the viral impact of these videos, and before you knew it, there were more food videos on Facebook than cat videos, and that’s something worth examining. This trend predominated the second half of 2015, and that popularity carried on into the New Year. Read More >
January has come and gone, and February slipped out the door right behind it.
