74% of People Trust Social Networks to Guide Purchasing Decisions
About three-quarters of consumers trust opinions they find on social media, including those from friends, families, and influencers, to help them make the right decision about buying a product or service.
This creates huge opportunities for marketers in the promotion of products (sponsored or not) to reach new audiences and influence key cohorts such as millennials and Gen Z.
After reading further on the concept of this platform, I am eager to start being a part of this. I loved the idea and I am excited to bring my knowledge and following of the equestrian world.
