The June 2022 social media trends range from phygital mansion homes to digital universe tours and showcase how the advancement of social media is being leveraged by brands.
One intriguing example from the June 2022 social media trends comes from a brand dubbed Lalo. The new social media platform works as a digital scrapbook to memorialize loved ones for friends and family to share memories. Consumers can upload images, videos, voice recordings, and texts for free, but Lalo plans to implement a paywall for access to more storage space.
Another notable example comes from book retailer Indigo. The brand recently joined forces with social media platform TikTok Canada to launch the new #BookTok Book Club. The hashtag has gained notable popularity in recent years and enables users to share book recommendations.
