‼️Interesting Social Media data from 2026‼️

Among people who use social to find local businesses:
Facebook 73%
YouTube 69%
Instagram 67%
TikTok 50%
-SOCi, Sep 2026.

49% of consumers use TikTok as a search engine
-Adobe, Feb 2026

30%+ of consumers are less likely to choose a brand whose ads look AI-generated
-Hootsuite Social Trends, 2026

Simply put:
1. People are looking for local businesses on social media the way they used to look on Google.
2. A lot of them are searching TikTok, and they can tell when the content is fake.
3. Facebook still leads this game and I believe no one expects that. That platform usage data at the top was from a survey in September 2026.

Call now to connect with business.

NEW LOCAL VIRAL VIDEO 1.8 million view video for Right Now Plumbing and Heating as of this morning. 3.4k comments and 3.4k new followers on Facebook in just the last few days!

These new followers are now going to be suggested more of this channel's content, but this result also teaches us what viewers enjoy about THIS SPECIFIC CHANNEL. A certain business or staff member may be better at communicating a specific thing and may not even know it. That's why sharing personalities in a natural way is huge. You find out what the public enjoys from this specific person. This is why copy and paste strategies often flop

It's not just about views, followers, or ROI. One of the most important things about strategies like this is developing a real sense of how to connect with "our people."

An ad can sell services that month but a powerful, well-understood presence fundamentally increases everything a business is capable of. More likely to be considered, respected, and paid for across the board.

Simply put: The business they see and connect with is the business they will buy from.

Putting out very natural and human social is so valuable for a business. As a customer watching, you're literally getting to know the person you'd hire before ever walking into their establishment or calling on the phone. That's what this Honest Aux social media service is all about, and that's what businesses in an ever-changing Montana market need.

People don't want to walk into a business and meet the staff cold, but they'll do that exact same thing over reels and shorts 👍😄

What's a local business you'd actually want to see the real people behind?

A huge hit for Dr. B's Guitars. This did just hit 225,000 views, but more importantly, this call to action also resulted in 150+ personal dm's asking for advice, giving feedback, and requesting Dr. B's very unique offer of helping people who experience pain when they play stringed instruments.

This is a new milestone for this channel and will be super helpful when it comes to learning about the audience and who needs these important services.

It's not just about views and sales, especially for Dr. B's. It's also about educating ourselves on what customers are actually looking for on social media and what would be most helpful to them.

This Facebook Reel we made for Posh Chocolat just climbed from 50,000 views to more than 150,000 views.

This was only their 6th post from Honest Aux, and it came from the very first film day we ever did together.

That makes Posh Chocolat the 7th local client we’ve achieved these kinds of results for.
