It is not the first time that a community manager creates a good response to a controversial consumer post, such as a marriage proposal that involved a McDonald’s hamburger, and where the Burger King CM he chose to react in a comical way to his competition.

Yet another example is the community manager of Netflix and Spotify that chose to launch a type of strategy together in which they were shown singing to the rhythm of a common character that has brought them millions of views and listened to on their respective platforms, such as Bad Bunny.

In this sense, brands increasingly use social networks as the main means to connect with their consumers or attract new users, That is why they create this type of strategies that are well received by the digital pulse, turning them into a good presence and in the future into a new client.
