If you think that 2019 has been a great year for social media marketing, wait until you see what will unfold in 2020. With more and more people subscribing to Facebook, Instagram, and other social media sites, it is clear that the internet offers a true goldmine for those that are willing to put in the work and learn the most effective strategies to monetize an audience.  
Nowadays, we are more connected than ever, yet so few people take advantage of the incredible opportunity that social networks are providing. It will not take a long time before big companies and institutions decide to seriously focus on internet marketing, and at that point, it will be almost impossible for the average Joe to get a seat on this profitable table. Advertising costs are going to skyrocket, and building a following of loyal customers will not be an option for small entrepreneurs anymore. 
But you are lucky because if you are reading this, it means that you are still on time to jump on the wagon before the train takes off. If I were you, I will stop wasting time debating whether social media marketing is worth focusing on and put all my energy and focus in studying and applying new strategies. 
The beauty of social media marketing is that it has incredibly low costs and almost an infinite potential if you apply the right knowledge.
