The June 2017 social media trends go a long way in answering one of the most pressing questions of a modern generation. Though the concepts here all relate to a clearly defined mass conscious understanding of what constitutes social media, are not all media inherently social? Media, quite literally, are conduits through which people communicate with one another, and interpersonal communication is precisely what defines a social interaction. In any case, Facebook, Snapchat, and Instagram have delivered some June 2017 social media concepts.
The most financially successful social media platforms are the ones that have discovered way to monetize the wholesome interactions that take place on them. Facebook is particularly well-known for its financial success, with the platform having found ways to provide businesses with valuable connections to their customers. Its newest feature, rewards-based QR codes, continues that quest by giving each Facebook user a unique QR code that they can scan at retail stores to unlock discounts and other goodies.
