This month’s blog marks the end of a six-part series focusing on specific marketing trends throughout 2022 and beyond.
April brings us to the fifth 2022 marketing trend.
March brings us to our fourth marketing trend for this year, cause marketing.

Many experts agree that 2022 will undoubtedly be another year of adapting and changing to meet the demands of clients’ needs and expectations. Inc. published an article discussing six marketing trends to prepare for in 2022. Whether you have a large business or a small Etsy shop, these are things that can be applied to every business type. Consumers have a desire for some sense of normalcy but enjoy the conveniences that the pandemic required businesses to come up with alternatives to keep their head above water. For example, grocery pick-up is something I can’t live without now that I have become accustomed to it. Although it was around prior to the pandemic, it wasn’t something I was willing to try. Why? I have no idea!
