Facebook is more influential than TikTok for purchase decisions
Briefly

According to a recent Relex study, 25% of US adults view social media as the key driver for their purchasing decisions, with Facebook being the most influential platform. Although 84% of consumers find products through social media, only 11% make a purchase within 24 hours. This indicates a delayed decision-making process. The report emphasizes the challenge of attributing sales directly to social media platforms, as many consumers might finalize their purchases on different sites or in-store. Brands are encouraged to integrate Facebook into their marketing strategies due to its critical role in influencing consumer behavior.
