ENGAGEMENT: HOW SOCIAL MEDIA INFLUENCES PURCHASING

Synopsis

How do brands benefit when they interact with consumers on social platforms like Facebook, Google+ or YouTube? Does more conversation mean more sales? What we found was when brands invest in offering content to their customers who engage the most, they create even more valuable customers.

Forrester found a third of social networkers who engage with brands said they discovered new products through messages on social networks, and 41% said they did so through ADs on social networks.
