This isn’t the first time that Coca-Cola has tapped social influencers to promote its brand, notes Marketing Week. Last year, the company launched CokeTV on YouTube in Great Britain and Ireland, which featured weekly videos from Manny Brown, Dodie Clark, Jake BoysJack Howard, and more. CokeTV, which amassed roughly 44,000 subscribers, has since been discontinued.
