THE WORLD’S MOST POWERFUL SOCIAL PLATFORM?
Size vs Engagement

Explosive growth, aspirational demographics, and unmatched
engagement have secured Instagram’s place among the social
media elite. Instagram amassed 150 million monthly users in three years—two years

The Other Girl
Instagram is often compared to the other visual darling Pinterest, launched six months
before Instagram (October 2010). Today, Pinterest is a third of Instagram’s size and
23 percent of Pinterest users engage with the platform daily, versus 58 percent on
Instagram.4 Other upstart visual and mobile platforms, including Vine, have entered
the fray. However, within a week of launching video, Instagram passed Vine in shares
on Twitter 5 and boasts 2.5 times the shares.6 The reach and appeal of the 15-second
video format, ideal for ads, gives Instagram an edge (Vine limits videos to six seconds)
with advertisers.
The biggest threat may be newcomer Snapchat. However, while seven times more
photos are uploaded daily to Snapchat, Instagram’s superior demographics—slightly
older, higher income users—has greater appeal to marketers. Recently Instagram took
direct aim at Snapchat with the December 2013 launch of direct messaging, enabling
brands to engage in two-way conversations with consumers.

faster than Facebook and half the time of Twitter. Although an eighth of parent company
Facebook’s community, Instagram registers 15 times the engagement and double the
engaged user base (Total Community Size x Engagement Rate) of the mother ship. 93
percent of prestige brands now maintain a presence on the photo-sharing platform, up
from 63 percent in July 2013.1
As teens migrate away from Facebook, Instagram has maintained its street cred and
is the fastest growing global social platform. The visual platform acquired 60 million new
monthly active users in 2013,2 the highest year-over-year growth (66 percent) among top
10 mobile apps.3

Best/Worst
Although both had billion dollar price tags, Instagram is arguably the best media
acquisition of the last five years and Tumblr the worst. Prestige brands have abandoned
Tumblr, and the adoption rate has declined. Instagram’s 2014 revenues are forecast at
$250 million–$400 million,7 while mention of Tumblr was noticeably absent from parent
company Yahoo!’s recent earnings announcement.

Visual media do more than communicate information, they inspire emotion and
action. Serving a potent cocktail of visual and mobile, Instagram could be the first
platform that delivers on the promise of social commerce via the power of usergenerated content. Featuring user-generated photos at the point of purchase boosts
conversion up to 7 percent.8 However, most prestige brands are failing to translate
Instagram’s engagement to e-commerce, as just 14 percent utilize Instagram UGC on
their brand sites.

Ninety-three percent of prestige brands are present on
Instagram, up from 63 percent in July 2013. Brands
post an average of 5.5 times a week, and 43 percent
of accounts post more than once a day. Ninety-nine
percent of user engagement is likes. Retail and Fashion
brands dominate the top 10 largest communities.
For these categories, Instagram is an evolved form of
window-shopping enabling users to see products on
organic mannequins. Beauty brand accounts are the
fastest growing and yield the greatest engagement. Cult
Beauty brands Urban Decay, Essie, and Lush outperform
the establishment.

Instagram is available in 25 languages and 60 percent
of users reside outside the United States. Thailand’s
Siam Paragon mall was the most Instagrammed place
in 2013.9 Unlike other Western platforms, Instagram
(inexplicably) has been allowed behind China’s “Great
Firewall,” and content is sharable to China’s Sina Weibo
and Japan’s Mixi. A burgeoning Instagram economy
has emerged in Kuwait, selling everything from sheep to
lipstick. Outside of the U.S., Brazil, The United Kingdom,
Russia, and Mexico round out the top five countries
accessing Instagram.10
Across prestige brand accounts Instagram’s visuals
require little translation. In the last five months of 2013,
prestige brand Instagram communities in Asia-Pacific, the
world’s largest consumer market, quadrupled. Eastern
European prestige brand communities, led primarily by
Russian accounts, record the highest engagement.

Key Findings
Insta-Video

Instagram Engagement: Top 10 Videos

Seventy-two percent of prestige brands post Instagram
videos, up from 26 percent in July 2013. However, video
posts account for only 4 percent of brand content. The
expertise required to produce high quality short-form
video remains a barrier for most brands. On average
brand accounts post six images per week, versus less
than one video post every two weeks (0.38 per week).
Engagement on photo posts averages 1.5 times that of
Instagram video posts. Reposted advertising and contest
posts generate the most engagement.
It is not a coincidence that the run time for Instagram
videos is 15 seconds, the minimum length of a television
commercial. It is rumored that the platform will sell
Instagram video ads similar to television airtime.
