New year, new challenges: in 2025, the social media world is still on the move. While artificial intelligence is establishing itself across channels<\/strong>, some platforms are gaining in importance for marketing, while others are losing ground. With Threads and Bluesky, two young networks are competing with X to succeed Twitter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this post, we take a look at the key challenges and goals in social media marketing in 2025<\/strong>. We present some of the results of our major social media report for the DACH region and embed them in international studies. We also discuss major social media trends and their significance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These are the goals companies pursue on social media<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

That’s why ads will be an integral part of social media strategies in 2025 in the vast majority of cases.<\/p>\n\n\n\t\t\n\t\t\t

These social media platforms will be important in 2025<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Facebook remains the largest social media network worldwide<\/a> in terms of user numbers. However, in many countries, the younger generation is turning away from the platform and towards Instagram and TikTok. Our survey results show that companies are responding to such shifts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
