They offer great deals in this way leading to high sales in the market. In 2020, the company said it would intensify its marketing campaigns and launch a series of products. The company has taken the initiative to invite various celebrities to advertise their products:#LG Brаnd  Stоry – #LG Brand Story – Life’s good when we better it – LG Beyond … 

The product promoted a new range of LEDs from the LG stable in all multi-mediums, according to a statement made by the company, the first time the company has met with any celebrity by allowing its flat-panel display.

The company selected well-known celebrities from the country and in time became the brand ambassador. The reason for this is that people will be in direct contact with the products available to them. The company also promotes its products through various sporting events as its sponsors. The company ensures that the product is in the minds of the customers so they think the product will buy it.

 

Short Product Promotion Commercials of LG

LG releases short ads that are promoted on social media sites such as Facebook, Instagram and Youtube. This is a great way for the ad to advertise – no long-form ads or disgusting ads. Short clips are made specifically to drive traffic to this product. These effective short-term marketing strategies have a far greater impact than spending money on full-fledged TV commercials.
