This campaign will result in helping them reach new audiences across social platforms and also get traffic to their website and social channels.

Using a dedicated hashtag for the campaign will help in measuring the campaign effectiveness across platforms.

Keeping the design minimal and simple draws attention to what is important and helps user to focus and take the required action.
