📌 the State of Pinterest
29% of US Adults Use #Pinterest. Of the other social platforms, it’s fourth in popularity, behind #YouTube, #Facebook and #Instagram. However, the metric has been slowly climbing.
According to Pinterest’s own demographic data, more than half of Pinners are international and more than half of new signups are men. This means that even if US audiences aren’t gaining as quickly, there’s potential for an international audience to take off.
Bonus:
💰 Pinterest delivers $2 in profit per $1 spent on ads.
📌 70% of Pinners will search, save or click on a Pin.
📱 85% of Pinterest searches happen on mobile.

📷 Instagram: Stories vs. Posts
- Over 50% of the content shared on top business profiles of #Instagram is now shared as Stories.
- However, stories reach less than 10% of their fans compared to over 20% reach of regular posts. But this makes sense due to the temporary nature of stories.

📺 Video Works!
Video marketing has been growing in popularity in recent times, and new statistics from a Brightcove study provide some reasons why that’s the case. Fully three-quarters (76%) of the almost 4,500 adults surveyed in the US, UK and Australia report having made a purchase after viewing a marketing video.
The Brightcove report indicates that video holds even greater appeal among #Millennials, as 85% of 18-34-year-olds said they’d made a purchase after watching a marketing video.

💸 Amazon's HQs
#Amazon’s relationship to its hometown, Seattle, WA, has been complicated at best. The company has poured close to $4 billion in real estate spending into the city. Amazon is currently employing 45,000 people who have an average annual salary of $110,000. Critics say these moves have driven up the cost of living in the city. While the tech giant has grown, it has also deferred 54 million in state taxes alone, due to a high-tech corporate incentive in Washington state.

😎 AR vs VR: the Engagement
In a recent research study conducted by GWI in the UK and U.S., it was found that over 90% of consumers in these markets are aware of VR, with around 65% saying they’re aware of AR.
Awareness of AR hovers between the 70-75% mark among the 16-44 age group, but drops dramatically among 45-54s (56%) and 55-64s (44%). By gender, males (71%) display a notably higher level of awareness of AR compared to women (59%).
These awareness level figures stand in sharp contrast to the rate of consumers who are actually engaging with AR and VR on a monthly basis in the UK and U.S.
