THE NEW PURCHASE FUNNEL

• A brand should build relationships with the social customer on order to drive advocacy

• Advocates talk about the brand, even when the brand isn’t listening

• Advocates are trusted among their peers and within their micro communities

• Advocates are aiding and influencing others down the purchase funnel

• The reach of one advocate is minimal; as an aggregate, the total reach can make a strong business impact
