- Average consumer has 29 brand friends on social networking sites, up from just seven a year ago
- Only 39% interact with brands on a regular basis
- 24% friend or follow brands to get deals or special offers

and reported on:
- 2,000 nationally representative respondents
- 500 digital trendsetters, a group which represents 5% of the national population and ar e first adopters of technology and highly active in their online social behavior.
