After recapping 10 key trends across social media, influencer marketing, and the creator economy in 2024, I'm diving into my predictions for the future of the creator economy. These include LinkedIn introducing new native video tools, Connected TV ads becoming a key way for brands to repurpose creator content, podcasting becoming a bigger part of influencer marketing, the fediverse gaining more attention in the creator economy, and more.

I break down eight key trends from this year, covering the evolution of the definition of a creator, the integration of AI across social media, tightened regulations for influencer marketing, and much more. I also dive into three of my predictions and big bets for 2024, including which social media platform will play a bigger role in influencer marketing.

In 2023, my big bets are LinkedIn becoming a bigger platform for creators, more companies hiring creators as full-time employees, and generative AI disrupting the creator economy.
