DEBUNKING MYTH 1: VINE USERS ARE SINGLE

They are young – 16 – 24 yr olds comprise 42% of active Vine users.

However, data indicates that many of them are also married and have

children.

The high percentage of married/in a relationship Vine users could also

reflect the high concentration of users in more traditional markets such as

China, India, Indonesia and Brazil

Recommendation:

• Shoot more images with people in a relationship or with children

• Open up social marketing/comms language to reflect the local market

realities of Vine users being married and with children
