What is your favorite trend?
"Guerilla Marketing Trickery". This was an advertising stunt from 2010 in which Heineken - sponsors of the UEFA Champions League soccer tournament - got a bunch of women to convince their boyfriends to attend a classical concert and poetry recitation on the day of the huge Champions League match between Real Madrid and A.C. Milan. It made for great viewing and was a brilliant advertising stunt by Heineken.
Predict something awesome for 2020?
