Through this challenge, brands are going the clever way to gain attention and engagement. This is how social media has become a great equalizer for marketers. With platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram, the brands don’t need to spend humongous amount of money to run a successful marketing campaign. You just have to be creative and know your audience. This is what the brands are currently doing — striking when the iron is hot.
