Meme marketing is fast, furious, and here to stay.

So you’ve planned and launched a social media campaign, and waited patiently for the likes, comments, and conversions to roll in. Now you’re looking at your performance report, wondering what the numbers actually mean. Is a 2% engagement rate high or low? Did your target audience love your campaign, or was it a flop? Without social media benchmarks (a.k.a. average performance stats for a social platform or industry), it’s difficult to make sense of raw data.

( This is the second in a series about how generative AI is impacting marketing. The first part is The rise of generative AI.) Despite the proliferation of visual content, words and text are still the mainstay of digital marketing.
