Vine launches ? best ways to use it for business marketing

New social network Vine launched last week ? here are some of the earliest marketing posts shared by brands online, one week in?.

Twitter?s new video sharing app, Vine, was launched last week.? There aren?t many like it: simple apps, released with very little fanfare and publicity, that generate buzz.

But Vine is one such innovation.

Likened to Instagram but for video, it offers a simple way to give others an insight into your business, your life and your world through 6 second looping videos.? It?s not complicated, but does it offer potential for marketing your business?

The following short vids have been shared on Vine this morning:

• someone taking an early flight and going through security
• a little boy colouring in his homework
• a coffee machine creating a delicious brew
• a cat running around someone?s living room

None of them ground-breaking, none of them designed to promote anything.? But for business, there may be more to it.

Here are some of our favourite

Gap tells a story with a look back at its advertising over the years:
