This document discusses the concept of "social currency" in marketing. Social currency refers to creating a sense of community around a brand that increases engagement and customer conversations. It is demonstrated not by the object or content itself, but by the discussions that arise around it. Examples are given of viral videos by Microsoft and Carlsberg that generated millions of views and social shares, showing how content can achieve high social currency and capital through sparking discussion over time. The value is in making things that are worth discussing.
A survey conducted by Microsoft's Windows Live Group reveals that 66% of people prefer online communication for romance, with over 67 million people across Europe, the Middle East, and Africa finding love online. Spending on Valentine's Day is expected to fall by nearly 10%, and financial pressures contribute to relationship issues for some. Instant messaging is particularly popular for flirting, with 55% of Europeans using it, especially in Northern Europe.
