Banking in Top 10 Most Social Industries

Good news for marketers in financial services… Bank employees rank in the Top 10 for most active participation in social media networks.

In a September study completed by NetProspex, the banking industry is in the Top 10 out of 50 industries with very active social media engagement. Engagement is measured as employees participating in social media, e.g. reading, learning, posting, sharing—not  using it to market the bank.

This makes even more of a case for industries servicing the financial services companies to begin marketing on LinkedIN, Facebook and Twitter.
