Viral Nation, a leading social media marketing transformation, talent, and technology company, today announced the launch of its latest market-differentiating addition to Viral Nation_Empower™ — short-form video-based guided learning paths, powered by insights from top influencers and talent. This groundbreaking enterprise solution takes employee advocacy to new heights by leveraging exclusive coaching and learning material from prominent industry influencers in addition to the decade of creator economy-based intellectual property developed by Viral Nation.
Employee advocacy is a powerful accelerant for building brand credibility and trust, particularly in today's fast-paced digital landscape, as messages shared by employees receive 561% more reach than official company channels, significantly increasing the potential audience and impact of brand content. 71% of consumers state they won't support a business if it loses their trust.
The power in Viral Nation’s guided learning paths lies in its accumulation of knowledge and expertise that provides input from influencers who have been shaping the social media landscape. With hundreds of bite-sized videos, the guided learning paths' unique approach ensures that each learning path reflects the latest industry trends, best practices, and insider knowledge.
At the core of the guided learning paths is the expertise of a growing list of renowned influencers and social media experts such as Davin Tong, Stacy La, and Brandon Owusu aka Bizzy Boom who are collaborating to provide employees with in-depth insights and actionable strategies across major platforms including LinkedIn, TikTok, and Instagram enabling them to bring out their inner content creator. Offering hundreds of expert-led videos, the guided learning paths cater to employees of various experience levels, from beginners to intermediates. A new and innovative approach, guided learning paths ensure that employees gain the knowledge and confidence to enhance brand reach, master social selling, and establish trust with their audiences.
"With Viral Nation’s guided learning paths, we're introducing a revolutionary way to connect with your audience authentically. No magic tricks or overnight fame promises – just real, strategic learning that helps you become a standout creator in your own unique way," said Davin Tong, influential Canadian actor, comedic blogger, and YouTube personality.
One of the primary industry problems Viral Nation’s guided learning paths tackles is employees' varying social media behaviors, from passive lurkers to enthusiastic creators. Through carefully structured guided learning paths, Viral Nation_Empower™ meets employees where they are, at their own skill level, cultivating a workforce of influential storytellers and transforming brand narratives. By nurturing creativity and advocacy at every level, the platform delivers everything employees need to grow into the thought leaders they aspire to be, leading to increased engagement and alignment within their communities.
