The Oscars, the grand celebration of cinema, captivate audiences worldwide annually with brands now capitalising on 'moment marketing' during the awards, rapidly creating and sharing real-time content. This approach enables brands to engage with the audience and make an instant impact making it a fast and effective strategy for brands to stand out during the Oscars.
This year, The Souled Store showcased its creativity with memes related to John Cena's Oscars stunt, cleverly tying it to a similar incident by Aamir Khan in the Indian film industry. Oral B, on the other hand, took advantage of the trend to promote its toothbrushes, highlighting how using its product could lead to the healthiest smiles worldwide. Popular brands, including Swiggy, Zomato, and Blinkit also jumped in on the Oscars trend. This reflects how brands utilised the Oscars moment to connect with their audience through humor and relatable content.
