Social Stats For Cyber Monday & Black Friday
By Richard Jones

While CyberMonday may have been a record breaker for online sales, Black Friday is still the most popular shopping holiday for social engagement.

Similarly, individuals are more likely to interact with brands when they’re actively out and about shopping, rather than when they buy online.
