QUESTION: To what degree do staffing firms use outside vendors for social media and marketing?

Answer:

A majority of staffing firms, 62%, don’t use outsourcing at all when it comes to marketing and social media, according to a survey by Staffing Industry Analysts. For the 38% that do use outsourcing for this purpose, 29% use it as an occasional supplement to internal efforts, 6% “mostly” outsource marketing and social media and 3% entirely outsource that function.
