Welcome to this week’s Rachel’s Social Snippets #49 –The one where you learn how to download your photos, video and data from Facebook🥰
Meta™ – Shares Ad Tips Based On 1M+ Ad Creatives
Meta recently partnered with AppsFlyer and Dentsu to undertake a new analysis of winning ad creative elements in app promotions, as well as how brands are utilising new gen AI features to maximise ad performance.
Instagram™ – Tests In-App Teleprompter Feature
A new, in-app teleprompter display within the Edits app is being tested to help creators present to camera in a more natural and engaging way.
LinkedIn™ – Adds More Video Ad Options, Including ‘First Impression Ads
As video continues to gain traction among LinkedIn users, the platform has announced some new video ad options, including “First Impression Ads,” which offer more opportunity to grab attention, as well as expanded CTV Ads capabilities.
X™ – Adds Verification Explainers To Avoid EU Fines
X has added a new overview of what checkmarks in the app now actually represent, as EU investigators continue to examine the app’s change in approach on verification and whether it violates the EU Digital Services Act (DSA).
TikTok™ – Shares A Range Of Ad Updates At Its World Event
TikTok has announced a range of new ad options and tools at its fifth annual “TikTok World” event, including updated audience analytics, new AI-powered catalogue ads, improved creator partnership insights and more.
TikTok™ – Launches New Platform To Help Musicians Maximise Their In-App Presence
It may not be of much consequence to me or you (unless you can actually carry a tune), but TikTok has announced the launch of a new “TikTok for Artists” platform for musicians, which will help individuals and bands manage their in-app presence, with enhanced data and insight tools to help them maximise their in-app presence.
Facebook™ – How To Download Your Photos, Videos & Other Data
Do you ever think about what would happen if your FB account got hacked or worse still, if FB decided to shut it down for no apparent reason? It happens way more often than you think 😲
If that did happen, you would lose access to all your photos, videos, posts, data, friends and followers overnight. The worst bit is that the process for regaining access can be a lengthy one. And doesn’t always end with the desired result!
One way you can minimise the stress of this is to download your data periodically to include your photos and videos. If you’d like to know how to do this then click here, I’ve shot a quick video running you through the process.
Instagram™ – Trial Reels – Have You Tried Them Yet?
Trial Reels aren’t shown to your followers, they are shown to a selection of users who do not follow your profile which can give you early insight into the likely performance of your Reel.
The idea is that this gives you an unbiased assessment of content quality, while also helping you potentially reach a broader audience.
So how do you create a Trial Reel? Simply create your Reel as normal and then look for the Trial Reel button as shown here
Do You Consider Your Audience When Creating A Slide Presentation?
