@gazz144@LaurelAynne 2. I would not limit myself to a virtual prank. Especially when vaccines are so widely available. I would not try to center a joke around the pandemic because the topic is too charged, but I don't believe there is a need to eliminate options like being in public. #wvu389
@Daniell96616701 @LaurelAynne Probably a solid move. Knowing the internet, people are likely to take a joke as fact. Best to stay away from topics that could potentially have adverse effects on the populations' health. #wvu389
@LaurelAynne 2. This year @EatLiquidGold is claiming to be introducing a skin care product. No way Velveeta actually goes through with it. This has to be a prank. If not then the fact that they want me to rub cheese on my face is a joke. I personally think this is hilarious. #WVU389
@LaurelAynne 1. If I were tasked with creating an April Fools prank this year, I would do it regarding the NCAA basketball tournament. There would no doubt be a funny reaction to people thinking their brackets were busted, only to find out it was all a roos.
@Daniell96616701 @JennLStevens @kroger I like these songs for Kroger. You know what else would be good? Pour Some Sugar on Me by Def Leppard. I would definitely buy more sugar if I heard Def Leppard at the Kroger.
@rachel_hull_ @JennLStevens @Ford I love everything about this posts. These songs perfectly represent what @Ford is all about. Ford should be playing these songs in all of their dealerships. The GIF tied it together nicely:) #WVU389
@JennLStevens 2. My @TommyBahama clothes are vacation clothes. The songs I picked are perfect for unwinding on a beach with one's drink of choice (preferably a margarita). #WVU389
@JennLStevens 1. I am a big fan of @TommyBahama clothing. I think they should be playing Margaritaville by Jimmy Buffett, Two Tickets to Paradise by Eddie Money, and Escape by Rupert Holmes. These are vacation songs that perfectly exemplify the brand image of Tommy Bahama. #WVU389
@bg2458@CopywriterBob@REI@jamesonwhiskey Precisely. Their actions are motivated by finances, but they are companies not non profits. It cannot be Jameson's responsibility to worry about the health of their customers. Their responsibility is to provide a service that their customers seek out. #WVU389
@Daniell96616701 @CopywriterBob@REI@jamesonwhiskey Agreed. The motives here are clearly financial. Idk if REI knows this but it is cold on Black Friday almost every year (where I live). How would it be in northerners best interest to go sight seeing in 20 degree weather?
@CopywriterBob@REI@jamesonwhiskey 2 If Jameson cared so deeply about their clientele then they would sell healthy drinks rather than intoxicants. However, it is not their job to worry about the health of their customers. Their role is to provide a service. @Merck is known for putting customers before $ #WVU389
@CopywriterBob@REI@jamesonwhiskey 1. These are absolutely stunts. The only indicative behavior is one that indicates @REI and @jamesonwhiskey want more green to line their pockets with. That being said, I think both of these are cool initiatives taken by the organizations. It is a smart marketing tactic. #WVU389
@xdanacheyennex@blairadowler I agree that small businesses will begin to reap the tangible benefits of social media marketing. Small businesses can utilize social media to reach out into their communities to gain exposure in geographic areas. #MKTG475
@oliviaakowalcz1@blairadowler I think you're right. I think companies will begin to invest much more resources into their social media marketing. I think much of us will be done by way of influencers. People are inclined to trust those they see as being an expert. I see this as the future of SMM #mktg475
@blairadowler The future of social media marketing lies in influencers. People respond to the opinions of their peers rather than the marketing efforts of corporations. The future I see is children who want to grow up to influencers, rather than athletes, or doctors, or politicians. #MKTG475
@Daniell96616701 @Capitaldemarca@Wendys Absolutely. Gen Z loves meme culture, and National Roast Day is a manifestation of that. @Wendys did a great job of capturing their followers by way of humor and lighthearted jokes. #wvu389
@emmanuel_lu7@Capitaldemarca@CopywriterBob@Wendys That is a spot on analysis of @Wendys following. They often use their platform to crack jokes or make little jests, trying to urge their audience toward laughter. This makes their audience expect this behavior from Wendy's, allowing for the perfect storm for roasting. #wvu389
@Capitaldemarca@Wendys@HISTORY requested a roast from @Wendys at the beginning of February. I love this strategy by both companies. It shows that they are fun, and they are not afraid of a few lighthearted jests. In the end both the companies sense of humor earned them both positive publicity #WVU389
@Capitaldemarca@Wendys 1. I think this strategy is well received by consumers. The lighthearted jests can bring a smile to the face who those who read it, and if there is one thing the world needs more of, it is smiles. This is also an opportunity for brands to gain constructive criticism. #WVU389
