Not just Facebook and Instagram have begun to capitalize on the success of stories. There are lots of companies and brands using live content to get their followers more excited and engaged. Digital Marketing and Product marketers use Facebook Live to do product demonstrations and show videos of real people using their product. The use of Instagram influencers has also grown significantly.

These Instagram influencers are paid to promote products and brands to their hundreds of thousands or even millions of followers. This is a fantastic way to get people interested in your product and engaged with your brand.

Unquestionably 2018 will continue to see the rise of social media influencers as they operate neatly with the growth and success of story marketing.
