Enhancing social media campaigns

Choose a recent social media campaign, possibly one you interacted with. Below are some possible examples:

• ALS #IceBucketChallenge
• Always #LikeAGirl
• Coca-Cola #ShareaCoke
• IKEA bookbook video
• McDonald’s Super Bowl 2015
• Taco Bell #OnlyInTheApp
• Virgin America Boo videos
• Then consider an older commercial, before social media was (as big) an influence. You can look at famous ads on Youtube.
  In a minimum of 3 pages, please do the following:
• Provide an introduction with a summary of the ads you have chosen, and an explanation of what the stated intent behind the ads was.
• From there, look at what the ads actually say (like a beer ad might actually be demonstrating that women are sex objects).
• Describe how social media plays into the intent and the actual messages. What’s different between the two you chose?
• What made the ads successful (or not successful)?
• What ideas and opinions do you have about the product or brand after reviewing the ads?
• What can we learn about how businesses use Twitter, Facebook, Linked In, etc. to communicate, network, broaden their customer base, and promote their products/services?
• Summarize your analysis.
