Consumers want brands to participate in social media trends
Briefly

According to M Booth, 41% of US consumers expect brands to engage in meme culture and social media trends, emphasizing the importance of brands to adapt creatively.
Despite the desire for creativity, only 25% of consumers are open to brands using popular phrases and slang, highlighting the delicate balance brands must maintain in their messaging.
Marketers are encouraged to use this data to advocate for taking risks online and exploring partnerships with influencers, but they must remain cautious to avoid 'cringe' content.
The data underscores a pivotal moment for brands in digital engagement—where they are challenged to resonate authentically without appearing forced or out of touch.
