Abstract	Social media marketing has transformed consumer behavior, reshaping how brands interact with potential buyers. Platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok serve as powerful tools for businesses to engage consumers, create brand awareness, and influence purchasing decisions. Consumer engagement fosters stronger relationships, while influencer marketing leverages trust and credibility to drive sales. User-generated content and online reviews play a crucial role in building consumer trust, alongside psychological factors that drive impulse and emotional purchases. Personalization and targeted advertising enhance relevance, while social proof shapes consumer choices. The effectiveness of social media ads versus organic content continues to be debated. However, ethical concerns, including data privacy and transparency, highlight the need for responsible marketing practices to sustain consumer trust and loyalty.
