FAQs
Q: Why is everyone on social media so obsessed with the ‘Friday meme’?
A: Because people get people like that because those describe sort of a general something that everybody in the whole world who’s ever worked kind of goes through. This mutual weekend nirvana moment—and a moment that millions of people can potentially relate to—takes the meme to a megalithic level; it’s highly shareable and social across all platforms.
Q: What’s the secret sauce in a Friday meme blowing up?
A: The best Friday memes hit the trifecta of timing (it’s a post for Friday), appeal to the widest audience (this is everyone who’s ever had a job), and visuals that can succinctly convey a point. They bask in the emotional high of the workweek coming to a close.
Q: If Friday memes can be part of a brand’s marketing strategy, how would they be used?
A: Companies can humanize their brand by sharing contextually relevant Friday memes that demonstrate they know where their audience is at in their work-life balance. This is relatable; this is making a connection, but again, it has to fit the tone and brand voice, and it can’t be so super controversial that you’re going to lose half your audience and have them walk away.
