8 Simple Strategies to Make an Impact this Holiday Season
We want to reflect on the importance of positively impacting our communities and giving back. We believe that digital marketing goes beyond the online world. It’s an opportunity to generate real-life impact and connect brands with engaged audiences.
The Power of Good Deeds During the Holiday Season.
Throughout November and December, we explored how companies can positively impact their communities and beyond. At BOLD, we work globally to make an impact locally, making our mark through active participation, sponsorship, collaboration, and volunteering with other organizations.
