Social Commerce

Where consumers band together online to influence, collectively, the price of a good or service, a form of social shopping and reverse pricing.

A website or mobile app that reduces the prices of its products or services for every like or tweet that potential customers generate as a group is using a form of social commerce. Or when consumers get their friends to buy a sufficient number of ecommerce coupons, they are engaged in social commerce. In effect, consumers are banding together online to influence the price at which they are willing to buy and companies are paying their customers to do their marketing for them.

social jetlag

A phenomenon where an individual's sleep patterns are misaligned with societal demands, often resulting from lifestyle choices, such as staying up late on weekends and waking early during the week. This misalignment can lead to feelings of fatigue and decreased productivity.

After staying out late with friends over the weekend, I experienced social jetlag on Monday morning, struggling to adjust back to my early work schedule.

Social Portfolio

A social media page that serves as an easy "business card" or example of how social you are and in what way (posts, stories, followers), i.e. through Instagram or Facebook. It is the essential step that follows after meeting and talking to a stranger.

Instagram is today's number-one form of Social Portfolio. It's the easiest way for people to know me at a glance.

Socialism

Something that everybody thinks is communism

Some old uncle: China is communist
The leftist niece: Uncle, there’s never been a communist country, the closest we’ve gotten is socialism. And China is very capitalist

Social Cusser

A "Social Cusser" is someone who only cusses around people who cuss, or if people around them are cussing. But if they are with people who don't, they don't.

Like a Social Drinker, but with cussing.

"Whoah, Billy, you were cussing up a storm with Lee and Sara yesterday!"
"Yeah, man. Im a social cusser."
