Later, a leader in influencer marketing and social media management software and services, has announced a series of product enhancements across its platform to help marketers enhance creativity and drive significant impact with social. Many of these will be featured in The Drop, Later's new quarterly showcase of the latest product innovations, presented by the product experts building them, where customers get a firsthand look at what's new and what's next on the Later platform.
"Social media is evolving rapidly and our customers need a partner that helps them navigate what's next," said Nicki Seaborn, SVP, Head of Later Social. "The Drop brings our innovation into one place, whether that's how marketers should be leveraging emerging platforms like Threads and Snapchat, or delivering deeper insights through social listening and analytics. We unlock brands and creators to spend less time managing complexity, and more time building real connections with their audiences."
The Drop brings together social media marketers and agencies to see and experience the updates from Later that drive the most impact. The latest capabilities released span across analytics, collaboration, competitive insights, and platform support, reinforcing Later Social's mission of helping SMBs and creators with tools that simplify social media management while setting the pace with a rapidly evolving marketplace.
Seaborn added, "Later sits at the center of millions of data points from hundreds of thousands of users, spanning content performance, conversations, and more. That scale gives us a unique and real-time view into how social is shifting. It's this depth of insight that fuels innovations like Future Trends, helping brands such as Fashion Nova, Kylie Cosmetics, and ESPN anticipate what's next and shape the conversation while others try to catch up."
