TikTok has launched its 2025 marketing calendar. The calendar is designed to help marketing teams ensure that they maximise their seasonal opportunities.

After making “Views” the primary metric of focus for creators last August, Instagram is now adding some new views-related metrics to help Reels creators hone in on the right elements.

Email Tip
Remember To Check Your Spam Folder Regularly?
I was talking to a customer yesterday who stated that ‘no one checks their spam folder,’ and I wondered if he was right.
There are a multitude of reasons why an email message could be treated as spam when it gets to you, so if you don’t check this regularly you might be missing an important email.
All the email clients, whether on your PC, tablet or mobile, will give you the ability to view your Junk or Spam folder and you can then mark certain email addresses as safe or you can block the address and delete the message. Click here for image.
