3 WHY SOCIAL MEDIA? Baltic countries are among the leading social media adopters worldwide. Both in terms of social media penetration in online population and daily social media usage. Constantly growing social media audience and continous development of advertising formats create high potential for efficient communication with big and niche audiences for performance and image/ awareness campaigns. Following these developments we ve decided to release a monthly social media landscape report covering social media usage in Baltic markets, as well as new social media advertising formats.
