10 Must Read B2C Tweets You Missed Last Week: Summertime Edition

This entry was posted by

Ah summer. When some of the best B2C tweets come out to play.

Unlike Christmas or Thanksgiving, marketers have 3-4 months to play with summer themes on social media. And they’ve got a diversity of imagery to play with: grilling in the backyard, napping poolside, long days at the beach, first trips to summer camp. Real-time-Super-Bowl-Oreo tweets these are not. These pieces of content often support bigger brand campaigns that inhabit offline realms as well. Pinned to a brand’s Twitter profile, they catch you right when you’re dreaming about sand between your toes and fresh corn-on-the-cob.

For your summertime pleasure, here are last week’s best examples of B2C brands leveraging surf and sun on Twitter. Take a look and ask yourself, “Could my brand do better?” (If your answer is “Yes,” here are some social media agencies that can help.)
