2️⃣ INTERVIEW:

I talked with Dani Goico, founder of Brand Crops and former CMO of Goiko about holiday marketing.

We remembered some iconic campaigns from our childhood and we also commented on this year’s campaigns from Microsoft, LEGO, Miller Lite, and John Lewis & Partners. To see whether they have nailed the holiday spirit or not.

Dani left us with some great tips for any brand dealing with Christmas messages, especially in 2020:

☝️ Emotions have to be prominent.

✌️ Brands must be respectful about the situations their audience could have faced throughout the year.
