I selected this article from Curatti written by Shelly Kramer because it provides insights on the way people interact on social media from their devices.

 

The world of technology has shifted in the way we conduct our marketing online

 

How Second Screen Social Affects Social Media

 

Most consumers use multiple platforms to get their information and make purchases. I agree that marketers should fully understand how their audience is viewing brands.

 

Kramer explains how we have evolved into using several different devices in our social interactions.

 

Here's what caught my attention:

 

  • Americans under the age of 65 are watching less and less television each year. Television apps are now all the rage with over 200 new channels having been created.

 

  • The heaviest users of social media are women ages 35 to 49 (the Generation X women). These people are more likely to make an online purchase than non-social media users.

 

  • In order to reach your target audience you need to now have a creative approach. This means businesses can  market to both television and social media users.

In an attempt to better understand this trend, Viaccess-Orca has analyzed second screen usage amongst diverse populations of television viewers. The results, which appear in this infographic, demonstrate the extent to which second screen viewing is altering the TV industry. According to our data, 70% of tablet owners, and 68% of smartphone owners, state that they use their additional devices while watching TV.

However, only 37% of those who practice second screen viewing do so in order to look up information that is related to the program they are watching. Most TV viewers use their devices in order to check emails or visit a social network...
