Influencers help brands amplify women's day campaigns

Social Samosa takes a look at some of the most prominent women's day marketing campaigns executed by influencers for brands this year.

International Women's Day is a day when a plethora of brands come forth with a multitude of narratives. With so many vying for attention on the same platforms, how does one stand out? Apple came out with a digital film on Women's Day this year, which was shared by the influencers featured in it, and then some more.

Closer home, brands came up with many ideas to create influencer marketing campaigns around it. From female foeticide to gender commute issues, they discussed it all. In fact, a menswear brand too made the most out of this opportunity by helping men take a stance for women, promising that they will be better.

With influencers at the core of each of these campaigns, brands try to reach a wider & diverse audience.
