According to a survey done by Google, the four top media for direct marketing in 2017 included e-mail, search (SEO/SEM), social media, and direct mail. The survey also covers plans for social media spending and indicates that 57 percent of responding business owners' marketing plans included increased social media spending in 2017. A negligible 3.3 percent planned to decrease social media engagement, while 28.5 percent planned to keep it the same. Essentially, these survey results demonstrate that an overwhelming majority (85.5 percent) of businesses surveyed planned to either maintain or increase their social media budgets in 2017. Another interesting indicator the survey reveals about the popularity of social media for business is the relatively insignificant segment of polled businesses that were not using social media for marketing: just 11.2 percent.
