Even brands brought out their kinky side -
A topic, spoken in hushed tones was out there, loud and clear for everyone to hear. Sexual innuendos was key to the success of this campaign. Ofcourse, there were several other factors like choosing the right platform.
Twitter drives conversations while Facebook visually treats its audience; the witty audience on Twitter immediately spread the word. Moreover the campaign panned out beautifully - helping create a strong brand recall, considering the campaign was in tandem with the nature of the brand.
