e.g. use of Vine or Instagram videos for online promotion campaigns to support existing photography.

e.g. Facebook could be used to promote Remarkable customer stories.

e.g. Starbucks ‘owns’ Foursquare so developing a specific campaign for this channel would need careful consideration.

e.g. Flipboard is growing in popularity and may be worth reviewing as a potential ‘Owned’ platform for ‘SPACE’ communications .

What actually is influence ?
