Salty and Sweet, together forever. Our heartfelt congratulations to Cinnabon and Slim Jim. The two brands announced their engagement on Twitter this week and we wish them a lifetime of CPG snack happiness.
The aggressive commenting strategy of Slim Jim, which has blown up their social impressions for the last few years (they went from 0-4.3M followers in 1.5 years on TikTok), is one to be admired. Their strategy hasn’t started and stopped in the comments field — They’re now going a step further to capture the attention of social scrollers.
Brands are getting super creative on social media and there’s so much more to it than just promoting your products or posting nice lifestyle shots. Have fun with it, interact, and watch your engagement metrics skyrocket.
Congrats to the happy couple.
