“Social media is a very targeted approach,” says Tim Collins, SVP of experiential marketing at San Francisco-based Wells Fargo. “There are what we describe as ‘interested communities’ — it could be anything from people who are focusing on what to do in their retirement, which obviously would skew a little older, to what concerts they may want to see this weekend, and that might skew a little younger. Each one of them is a very targeted endeavor, so there is not any broad audience.
