Anton Naianzin emphasizes the power of 'cringe' in marketing, suggesting it can help brands stand out amidst noise on social media. By using unsettling humor, brands can enhance individuality and engage broader audiences. Cringe content works well especially in competitive markets, becoming memorable for its humorous and slightly uncomfortable nature. Strategies might include irony or playful stereotypes relevant to the industry, making brands relatable, particularly to older demographics. Naianzin illustrates how even a comedic parody can drive social media engagement and foster brand loyalty.
In marketing, that can often count as a win.
A healthy dose of unsettling weirdness can help companies stand out and get people talking about the brand.
Cringe content can break through the noise of buzzword-filled ads and posts that are continuously deluging social media.
How is this accomplished? One common cringe tactic is featuring people who graduated high school when the term 'rad' had cultural currency.
