Social Media

Social Media

According to the ICT Sector Statistics Report for the last quarter of 2014, Kenya has over 26.1 million internet users. Of these, four million people engage on social media daily. Most of these are in Nairobi which has 74% on Twitter and the Diaspora being the next largest base with 11%.

Blogs and social channels have provided a great opportunity for brands to disseminate their message, and at the same time have created a new challenge in controlling that message. Monitoring brand mentions on social is absolutely essential in a world with a 24-hour news cycle and PR disasters that go viral before management can get ahead of the message.
