These are a few of the brands which performed their social responsibility digitally. Let us end the word with words from the expert.
Digital lends itself beautifully to any long- or short-format videos which most of the current election campaigns are made of. Facebook and YouTube continue to be the two most leveraged platforms because they offer the highest reach but this election we have seen brands leveraging over-the-top (OTT) platforms such as Hotstar to capture the attention of millennials as well.~ Gopa Kumar, Chief Operating Officer, Isobar, a Dentsu Aegis Network-owned digital agency
