MXit beats Facebook and Google
MXit has beaten international brands like Google and Facebook in a recent Sunday Times survey. The Sunday Times Generation Next Survey research, conducted by HDI Youth Marketeers, polled 5,300 young urban South Africans between the ages of 8 and 22.
For the third year running MXit has topped the poll in the Coolest Website and Social Network category. MXit’s slogan “Join the evolution” came in second in the Coolest Brand Slogan category, after Nike’s “Just do it”.
“We are so pleased with these accolades and would really like to thank our users. Our philosophy has always been squarely centred on making the mobile social networking experience a really valuable and fun one for our users, and these awards show us that this is working,” says Herman Heunis, CEO and founder of MXit.
