Social Media Fatigue and the Advertising Industry: How are Consumers, Clients, and Content Creators Dealing with the Pressure to be Constantly Connected?

Sunday, March 31, 2019 at 10:15 AM–11:45 AM CDT
4-Plaza Ballroom C
Abstract

This session is important to advertising practitioners and educators because it shines light on an oftentimes hidden aspect of brand management in the digital age – the social media brand manager, the complexities of their roles, and high risk of burnout. As more undergraduate students with communication degrees look to social media channels for new career opportunities, it is vitally important for educators and practitioners alike to understand the impact this type of work can have on young workers especially related to mental health and expected availability, among other things. Social media is not fading into the distance any time soon. As a result of this new reality, advertising educators and practitioners must be proactive in defining policies and procedures to help social media workers have sustainable careers in the advertising and marketing industries.
