In a time of uncertainty, people look for reasons to be optimistic and positive. 

In its “Colgate Smile” campaign, Colgate Thailand invited Thai people to smile, be optimistic, and believe in the power of positive thinking. What stood out about this campaign was @ColgateTh's ability to align the purposeful and uplifting message with what the brand stands for — a great smile — while also engaging with people around the campaign hashtag #ยิ้มสู้, which in turn generated lots of positive sentiment and brand love.

A deep understanding of culture and the ability to tap into "what's happening", "bold” marketing campaigns worth talking about like partnerships with superstars, and the excellent use of Twitter to spark conversations have helped AIS Thailand rise to the top of Twitter Thailand.

The standout brand and this year's winner of the “Best Launch on Twitter” award is AIS Thailand for its #AIS5Gที่1ตัวจริง (#AIS5GTHNo1Network) campaign.

Following Twitter's launch best practices, @AIS_Thailand teased the launch with a video to get people on Twitter talking. On the day of the launch, AIS put the brand in the middle of the conversation on Twitter and drove massive awareness with Twitter's takeover products, Promoted Trends Spotlight and First View.

AIS also used Twitter's custom brand emoji to supercharge the conversations surrounding the launch, and then kept people talking with a series of videos featuring the campaign ambassadors, K-pop idols BamBam and Lisa.
