1) Consumers communicate both online and offline across various contexts that are important for marketers. All media can be considered social media if planned properly to target consumers during social interactions.
2) Research shows that adults often communicate with others simultaneously while consuming media. Certain demographics, like young singles, display more online social behavior while consuming media like TV.
3) Targeting young singles during weekday evenings when watching TV dramas provides opportunities to reach influential consumers during peak social media consumption.

21. Conclusions
“Social context” of media consumption is a valuable
consideration for marketers in light of the power of social
influence to drive purchase decisions.
New tools are making it possible to target relevant
consumer influencers by selecting media channels when
social interaction is most likely to occur.
A social strategy needn’t rely on online “social media.”
All media are social, if you plan for it properly.
