little name recognition. The two most frequent responses were<br />

“somewhat unlikely” and “extremely unlikely”. Wolfpack PR sees this<br />

as the participants being less willing to invest time and/or money in a<br />

social media account if there are few accounts and is not yet popular<br />

among the masses. This finding poses a particular challenge for<br />

<strong>Xistance</strong> because it will need to utilize the findings on how individuals<br />

learn about new technology services to reach their target publics and<br />

grow in usership.<br />

Considering many of the participants claimed they use social media to<br />

connect with other people, share information about their lives and to<br />

track life experiences, Wolfpack PR can conclude that participants are<br />

generally not interested in devoting energy to a social media platform<br />

that is less relevant in the current social world. We can use this<br />

information to ensure our campaign plan includes tactics that align<br />

with trends on social media and grab the attention of potential users.<br />

PRIVACY VALUES AND EXPECTATIONS. The survey also included five<br />

questions to determine how <strong>Xistance</strong>’s target audiences value privacy.<br />

The first question asked participants how much they value privacy<br />

online. Out of the 412 respondents to our survey, a total of 97.37<br />

percent reported finding online privacy either “extremely important,”<br />

“very important” or “moderately important.” The results showed a<br />

positive correlation between age and valuing privacy. This means that<br />

as people get older, their value for privacy online grows. Since<br />

<strong>Xistance</strong>’s target audience is primarily 50- to 70-year-olds, it is<br />

beneficial to highlight the company’s core value of privacy in Wolfpack<br />

PR’s campaign plan to appeal to the target audiences.<br />
