April Fool’s Day might come around every year, but the campaigns and promotional products get a massive upgrade. Of course, figuratively! These campaigns sometimes become the talk of the town and gain needed buzz for an extra push for the marketing strategy. Brands are trying to execute lighthearted pranks for their customers, and each year the companies participate in them for confusing reasons.
This year too, different brands worldwide have come up with creative ideas to connect with the customers in a fun way.
Take a look at some of the marketing campaigns which have become the talk of the town this April Fool’s Day.

2. Nasty Cookie
A visual illusion treat from the nasty cookie will make you take a second look at their April Fool’s launch product.

Mentioning the “fries that will never turn soggy”, the brand clarified how it’s a twist on a new product.
3. Irvins Singapore

4. Lay’s Pakistan
