This newsletter is supported by our friends at Metricool. They’re organising a social media summit that’s free, virtual, and unfiltered, just like this newsletter.
Brand & Advertising coverage from 22.11 — 05.12.2025, with a new section covering the ongoing Christmas season.

In partnership with Metricool
I’ll be honest with you. When Metricool first reached out to me about this free event, I was a bit hesitant. I’ve used their social media tool for years and it’s amazing. But you know, they always did the work quietly, and you didn’t hear much about the cool events. But man, was I wrong. The speakers at their events are some of the coolest and most insightful people I know.
Our frequent collaborator on Instagram, Dakota Rae Lowe, VP of Social Strategy at Edelman, is giving a talk about Decoding Internet Lore to Create Brand Meaning.
Alex Frolov, CEO of HypeAuditor, is giving a talk about data-driven creator marketing. If you work in influencer marketing and know some gossip, you know HypeAuditor is basically the Cloudflare of this industry. Pretty much everything runs through it.
Sara Di Costanzo, Sr Strategic Partnerships Manager, Platform and Agency at Pinterest, will talk about the Pinterest Predicts Report 2026. I don’t need to convince you on this one. I know my analytics, and everyone loves that report. A talk about it is already a win.
These three guests are absolute bangers, but the rest of the speakers list is also stacked: Matt Navarra, Olivia Mae Hanlon, Mark Erickson, Brock Johnson, Arielle Berlinsky, Tomas Loucky, Latasha James, and Xandrina Allday.
Now, they didn’t even need to pay me to tell you this because I always share Metricool’s social media studies whenever they come out. You can catch a first look at the new one by joining this free event. Every session will have a live Q&A at the end so there will be multiple opportunities for attendees to ask questions.
Date: December 10, 2025 • Time: 9 AM EST • Format: Free, virtual
