The holiday season is surely any brand or marketer's favorite time of year. Shopping-crazed customers and looser wallets means this is the best time to bring out any and all holiday marketing campaigns a company can handle.
But, just like any advertising or marketing initiative, holiday marketing must be eye-catching and engaging in order to capture the interest of already-bombarded consumers. Check out this collection of festive seasonal campaigns to see what brands have been cleverly cooking up for the Christmas season from past to present.
