Discover the main benefits of hiring a social media management company

Social media management has never been more important than it is now for a company or brand. These digital platforms are now a stage that dominates and influences the buying process of consumers.

According to a study by Marktest, more than half of the Portuguese who have an active account on social networks assume to follow the activity of companies and brands on social networks. This study also reveals that 37.6% of respondents say they have already bought some product through social networks, and this number has been growing over the years.
