Internet marketing agency Barkley released an interesting new survey called “American Millennials” survey, which focused social media users and their reactions to business brands on social media sites. The results are quite interesting.

The survey found that over half of consumers ages 16 to 34 liked checking out brands on social media sites. That compared with just over a third of adults 35 and up. It also found that 1/3rd of all younger consumers like brands more if they use social media.
