In today’s digital age, social media has become a powerful tool for brands to connect with their target audience. One of the most effective ways for a brand to reach a wider audience is through celebrity endorsements. When a celebrity promotes a brand on social media or wears the brand’s products to events, it can have a significant impact on the brand’s visibility and sales.
