The question is: how does it do it? Let's get down to business!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Notifications so you don't forget about it<\/strong>. These notifications can be very varied, although they are usually sent in case of inactivity or to suggest similar content.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Instant bonuses:<\/strong>&nbsp;You upload a post and you start receiving a lot of likes or comments that make you feel approved by other people, that is, you feel good so you want to live that feeling again.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Uninterrupted content<\/strong>With the advent of TikTok and reels on Instagram, above all, we are consuming content continuously. You scroll through one video and then watch another, and before you know it, you've been watching for an hour.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Content customization<\/strong>: the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.geotelecom.mx\/en\/community-manager\/\">social networks<\/a>\u00a0have been perfecting their algorithms over time and know what kind of content you like and what you interact with the most. If they show you something you like, it makes sense that you will react to it and therefore spend more time.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"%C2%BFY_como_afecta_todo_esto_en_el_proceso_de_compra\"><\/span><strong>And how does all this affect the buying process?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The fact that social networks engage us so much also means that brands have more opportunity to impact us with their ads or organic content and, therefore, to influence us in the purchasing process. Does the data corroborate this?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to the Nielsen study,<a href=\"https:\/\/www.reasonwhy.es\/media\/library\/digital-consumer-survey-spain-2022-rw.pdf\">&nbsp;2022 Digital Consumers Survey<\/a>,&nbsp;<strong>92% of consumers have shopped online in the last 3 months<\/strong>&nbsp;and 60% shop between 1 and 2 times a month.

However, you may think that hyper-personalization causes a bubble effect and that the user only sees videos that interest him, but TikTok breaks this bubble by interspersing the videos that the user likes with other types of videos that may be trending or that may provide another point of view.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All of this has contributed to making TikTok the most popular&nbsp;<strong>search engine for generation Z<\/strong>. As Google senior vice president Prabhakar Raghavan explained, \"About 40% of young people, when they're looking for a place to eat lunch, don't open Google Maps or go to Google search. They go to TikTok or Instagram.\" This represents a shift in mindset, with a preference for content creators over traditional media.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Y_de_aqui_nace_otra_pregunta_%C2%BFpor_que_te_fias_de_un_influencer\"><\/span><strong>And from here another question arises, why do you trust an influencer?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are two determining aspects when it comes to trusting an influencer according to the&nbsp;<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sortlist.es\/datahub\/reports\/estudio-influencer\/?repeat=w3tc\">Sortlist's 2022 Influencer Impact Survey<\/a>,<\/strong>&nbsp;and they are: the number of followers and their content.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">How much neuroscience is there here?

So how do influencers affect our decision making?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Well, they have an impact, even if sometimes we don't realize it. According to iab's Social Networking Study 2022,&nbsp;<strong>influencers' credibility has increased compared to 2021<\/strong>. A 47% consider influencers credible and, similarly, the level of advertising that followers perceive in the comments made by this group has also decreased.

And within this definition come into play a lot of strategies to which our brain, without realizing it, falls surrendered. In this blog post, we are going to analyze how social networks influence our purchases and why we are so caught up in them. Social network algorithms and their impact on your behavior We are not telling you anything new if we tell you that the algorithm of any social network aims, among other things, to make you spend as much time as possible on that application. The question is: how does it do it, and how does all this affect the purchasing process? The fact that social networks engage us so much also means that brands have more opportunity to impact us with their ads or organic content and, therefore, to influence us in the purchasing process. Does the data corroborate this?  According to Nielsen's 2022 Digital Consumers Survey, 92% of consumers have shopped online in the last 3 months and 60% shop between 1 and 2 times a month. In addition this study also points out that 29% of sales come from social networks.  TikTok as a successful platform The Chinese social network TikTok penetrated strongly in Spain with the arrival of the pandemic and, currently, it is one of the social networks in which we spend more time as confirmed by the IAB Social Networks Study 2022, ahead of Instagram, Facebook or Twitter.  This is due to the attractive way its algorithm shows us videos. The platform shows you 8 videos on which it will analyze your behavior (reactions, viewing time, followers, etc) to then show you another 8 videos in relation to the information it has collected from you. However, you may think that hyper-personalization causes a bubble effect and that the user only sees videos that interest him but TikTok breaks that bubble by interspersing the videos that the user likes with other types of videos that may be trending or that may provide another point of view.

They go to TikTok or Instagram.\" This implies a change in mindset, with a preference for content creators over traditional media. And from here another question arises, why do you trust an influencer? There are two determining aspects when it comes to trusting an influencer according to Sortlist's study on the impact of influencers in 2022, and they are: the number of followers and their content. How much neuroscience is involved here? Well, this is explained thanks to our mirror or specular neurons discovered by Giacomo Rizzolatti in 1996. These neurons are the ones that allow us to imitate behaviors and generate empathy. When observing certain actions, these neurons tend to want to imitate them. So, how do influencers affect our decision making?  Well, they do, although sometimes we don't realize it.

It is true that our brain works automatically and unconsciously in some occasions and that we can be influenced without realizing it.
