The first thing confused Londoners would have done is to Tweet, Instagram or Facebook about their unusual encounter with a polar bear that day.<\/p>\n<p>It received 47 million impressions on Twitter \u2013 30 million of which were from the UK, while the show launched with just over 700,000 viewers \u2013 the biggest audience to date for a UK originated drama on Sky

duct tape.<\/p>\n<p>So many brands wanted to be associated with the famous movie, and all kinds of surveys, PR stories and stunts were planned to allow them to get on the Fifty Shades bandwagon.<\/p>\n<p>But this was one of the best \u2013 the \u2018leaked\u2019 memo format was great and entirely believable, while still being very tongue-in-cheek, resulting in a huge amount of

to raise awareness about the shortage of blood donations, and saw As, Bs and Os, removed from the brands logo to highlight the different blood groups.<\/p>\n<p>It started with a host of brands such as Waterstones, Odeon and even Downing Street mysteriously removing letters from their signage.<\/p>\n<p>A few days later, NHS Blood and Transport revealed they were behind the missing letters with a news story revealing that 40 per cent fewer donors had come forward in that year, compared to ten years ago.<\/p>\n<p>But following the reveal, as well as the brands who had already joined in, other brands took part with the public also joining in by changing their Twitter handles to replace any As, Bs and Os with a blank space. We even took part ourselves. The success of the campaign is clear in the figures \u2013 more than 30,000 people registered as blood donors during 10-day campaign and it had more than 700 pieces of coverage, which even resulted in the public website having to be taken down as a result of the unprecedented demand.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][az_single_image image=&#8221;38501&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h3>Snickers<\/h3>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;20px&#8221;][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;25px&#8221;][vc_column_text]<strong>Campaign: You aren\u2019t you when you\u2019re hungry<br \/>\n<\/strong><strong>Brand: Snickers<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Following news of the Jeremy Clarkson \u2018fracas\u2019 in March, Snickers jumped at the chance of some brilliant reactive PR.<\/p>\n<p>As details emerged of the incident, where the Top Gear presenter was said to have assaulted one of the show\u2019s producers because he was refused a hot meal, Snickers sent <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thedrum.com\/news\/2015\/03\/13\/jeremy-clarkson-consoled-free-snickers-bars-pr-stunt\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">a box of the bars<\/a> to the (former) BBC presenter with a note using the brand\u2019s slogan \u2018You\u2019re not you when you\u2019re hungry\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>The chocolate brand\u2019s campaign and TV advert sees a Snickers bar given to someone who is acting diva-like due to hunger.
