Knix uses MMS for big splash moments—like when they announced the launch of their new WingWoman Bra. The brand discovered through A/B testing that their audience converts at a higher rate when receiving multimedia messages. Now, Knix opts for MMS when they have key launches or core product updates, or when they feel like adding a visual component to their campaign will boost performance.

Bulova added a colorful twist to their 4th of July savings event. Instead of launching a more traditional sitewide sale, the watch brand matched the theme of the weekend by only discounting their red, white, and blue models. The approach was a fun way to highlight a special selection of their watches while offering customers a great limited-time deal.
