Want to hear some pretty staggering stats? 

• Posting content with images can result in 650 percent more engagement than posts that only have text. Think about that: – 650 percent!
  
  
• Posts that include videos typically attract three times more links than the wordy-text-only versions. 
  
  
• Consumers are 85 percent more likely to purchase something after watching a product video. 

So if you're the type who believes visual content doesn't matter, or that it's not worth the money you'll invest in creating it, I urge you to read on, because if you're not taking advantage of all that visual content has to offer you (and your brand), you're missing out on a huge opportunity. In fact, according to HubSpot, infographics are shared three times more often than any other form of content.

The EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) enforcement clock is ticking, and with the May 25 deadline looming,

businesses across the globe are wondering if and how the 99 articles included in the new legislation will affect them.

The GDPR overhaul is the EU’s largest change to privacy policy in more than two decades.
