🖤Cyber Weekend According to new research from VoucherCodes and the Centre for Retail Research, UK consumers are predicted to spend £13.41m per minute over the Cyber Weekend this year. This equates to £8.29bn in online and offline sales from Black Friday through to Cyber Monday – a 6% uplift on the £7.78bn spent in 2017. The figures reveal that spending over the Cyber Weekend has grown significantly over the last five years, with online and offline spend up 66% and 68% respectively since 2013. In total, spending online and on the high street over those four days alone now accounts for 24% of festive sales, compared to 14% in 2013. This year, shoppers are expected to spend £2.44bn on Black Friday. Sales are set to continue to increase over the weekend, reaching their peak on Cyber Monday as consumers are predicted to spend almost £2.96bn on the final day of the weekend. 🚀@PerspectiveIX via VoucherCodes.

😎AR vs VR: the Engagement In a recent research study conducted by GWI in the UK and U.S., it was found that over 90% of consumers in these markets are aware of VR, with around 65% saying they’re aware of AR. Awareness of AR hovers between the 70-75% mark among the 16-44 age group, but drops dramatically among 45-54s (56%) and 55-64s (44%). By gender, males (71%) display a notably higher level of awareness of AR compared to women (59%). These awareness level figures stand in sharp contrast to the rate of consumers who are actually engaging with AR and VR on a monthly basis in the UK and U.S. 🚀@PerspectiveIX via GlobalWebIndex. ❓Which one do you prefer?

💸Amazon's HQs #Amazon’s relationship to its hometown, Seattle, WA, has been complicated at best. The company has poured close to $4 billion in real estate spending into the city. Amazon is currently employing 45,000 people who have an average annual salary of $110,000. Critics say these moves have driven up the cost of living in the city. While the tech giant has grown, it has also deferred 54 million in state taxes alone, due to a high-tech corporate incentive in Washington state. 🚀@PerspectiveIX via Statista.

📺Video Works! Video marketing has been growing in popularity in recent times, and new statistics from a Brightcove study provide some reasons why that’s the case. Fully three-quarters (76%) of the almost 4,500 adults surveyed in the US, UK and Australia report having made a purchase after viewing a marketing video. The Brightcove report indicates that video holds even greater appeal among #Millennials, as 85% of 18-34-year-olds said they’d made a purchase after watching a marketing video. 🚀@PerspectiveIX via MarketingCharts.

📷Instagram: Stories vs. Posts - Over 50% of the content shared on top business profiles of #Instagram is now shared as Stories. - However, stories reach less than 10% of their fans compared to over 20% reach of regular posts. But this makes sense due to the temporary nature of stories. 🚀@PerspectiveIX via SocialBakers. ❓Which one do you prefer to watch/see more?
