Overview

“I love Facebook to keep in touch with my friends – I value their opinions on things. I am always on my phone, mostly texting my kids to see what they are up to!

I do love to eat, and cook - use the Internet for a lot of ideas. I also enjoy following celebrities and gossip on Twitter. I follow brands for discounts and coupons only.”

Online Behaviors

Tips for engagement: Shannon is a spectator and a joiner in social channels – she will not create content proactively, but will consume information served up to her, and potentially comment. Entertainment is an important consideration for her when she is connecting with brands. Her friends are a key driver of activity for her – if they like or do something, she is much more likely to do so.
