what brands can learn from Charli XCX's marketing

⭐ IT’S A BRAT SUMMER – EVEN FOR MARKETERS! ⭐
In June, Charli XCX launched her latest album, BRAT, and it's safe to say the marketing campaign that came with it continues to flood our feeds…
and it has branding lessons we can all learn from!
Charli and her team went through 65 shades of 💚 green 💚 to discover the unique colour that perfectly represents her new punchy and expressive album. This process alone is a testament to the power of strategic colour selection and colour theory.
In an Instagram post, Charli detailed the journey behind this decision, highlighting how it shaped the album's visual identity and overall success. This creative approach to colour selection ignited a viral sensation, setting a new standard for how brands can uniquely and effectively engage their audience through a single colour. 👇

The striking colour has generated buzz and excitement, showcasing how modern marketing can use colour to go viral.
Unlike the often-conservative approach to colour, Charli's creative decision made a bold statement that resonated with her global audience. Brands are using this to leverage the stand-out colour in their marketing as well.
