According to Sprout Social,&nbsp;71% of Internet users said they are more likely to buy from a company when they experience positive interaction with a brand.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sparking positive sentiment around your brand is not an easy process. A social media campaign is not enough these days. People are looking for something more \u2013 not only an interesting campaign with great copy and visuals, but also a campaign that has a positive impact on society.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are <strong>five<a href=\"https:\/\/brand24.com\/blog\/twitter-marketing-strategy-guide\/\" title=\"\">&nbsp;Twitter marketing<\/a> campaigns<\/strong> that caught my attention. Most of them combine promoting their business with changing the world (or, at least, improving a bit of it).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some of the Twitter marketing campaigns are an on-going activities; others were a one-time event.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p> The campaigns show:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>how to use Twitter to effectively communicate with your audience<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>how to incorporate visual elements into your Twitter marketing campaign<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>how to make use of video and live streaming on Twitter<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>and more!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before we dive deeper into the world of successful Twitter marketing campaigns, we have to answer two questions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Firstly, why should you choose Twitter for your next marketing campaign?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Secondly, how do you spark positive interactions with your audience?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Which Social Media Platform Should You Choose for Your Marketing Campaign?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The answer to this question is quite simple \u2013 the one where your audience is present.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I would argue, however, that Twitter is a great place for your next marketing campaign.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s true that the platform has stopped gaining new members and the number of monthly active users oscillates around 67 million.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But the total number is not the whole story. We also have to take into account who is actively using Twitter. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A lot of journalists still use Twitter to find interesting stories and spot emerging trends.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your social media campaign has a better chance of catching the eye of a media worker and spreading beyond one social media platform. There&#8217;s a chance that even non-Twitter users will hear about your product which will boost your brand awareness, increase followers&#8217; count, and, ultimately, boost sales.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Google Maps<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Frankly, I remember the times before Google Maps when I was completely lost almost all of the time. That&#8217;s probably why I follow every update Google Maps has to offer.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And Google Maps is a great example of a successful on-going Twitter campaign.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is an unusual Twitter marketing campaign as it is highlighting the visual side of the social media platform.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>How does Google use Twitter for visual brand recognition? There are a couple of steps Google did right.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">As if you needed another excuse not to cook, San Francisco Restaurant Week is in full swing.

Twitter is a great place to drive awareness or produce an anti-churn&nbsp;content.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Nike<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Nike is an experienced Twitter player, with more than 7.5 million followers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of their greatest Twitter marketing campaigns was #Breaking2. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nike teamed up with three marathon runners, Lelisa Desisa, Eliud Kipchoge, and Zersanay Tadese, to break the world marathon record and run more than 42 kilometers in less than 2 hours.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Eliud Kipchoge won the race but he came 25 seconds short of breaking the 2 hours barrier. That didn&#8217;t stop Nike from making one of the best Twitter marketing campaigns out of the attempt.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Eliud Kipchoge &#8211; 2:00:25<br>The barrier just got that much closer. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Breaking2?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Breaking2<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/JustDoIt?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#JustDoIt<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/A9fb1wZt1X\">pic.twitter.com\/A9fb1wZt1X<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Nike (@Nike) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Nike\/status\/860769928726462464?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">May 6, 2017<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Make use of technology<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Nike built a global audience for one online event. Considering the fact that people from different timezones took part in the event, that&#8217;s pretty impressive result.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first problem was to remind people about the run at the right moment. The sports giant implemented a very simple technique \u2013 the only thing a user had to do was to like or retweet a message to opt in and receive a notification once the event was about to start.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The second challenge for this Twitter marketing campaign was technological.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The key to success was providing all users with a high-quality video streaming.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nike used Periscope, a Twitter tool for live-streaming, to provide its followers with a flawless video stream. What&#8217;s more, followers could cheer the runners and take part in a conversation. The online participation component made people feel like a part of the real sports event.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nike&#8217;s #breaking2 event was the biggest live streaming event on Twitter to date, with more than 13 million viewers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The hashtag #breaking2 generated almost 85 000 mentions on social media between May 6th \u2013 8th.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nike teamed up with National Geographic to produce a documentary which is still available on YouTube.
