But how do you go about creating marketing memes? It\u2019s not rocket science. There are no set of rules to be followed when it comes to meme marketing. But you need to keep a few things in mind while creating marketing memes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Know Your Audience<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Just like any other&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/shanebarker.com\/blog\/future-of-social-media-marketing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">social media marketing strategy<\/a>, the first step to creating good memes is to understand your audience. So, for example, if your brand is targeting millennials or Gen Z, you could create memes around things that they are interested in. That could be a trending TV show or Netflix series.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When using meme marketing, brands need to find a fine balance between promotion and engagement. BarkBox\u2019s marketing campaign got the combination just right.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/shanebarker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/AppleTV-Twitter-Marketing-with-Memes.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/shanebarker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/AppleTV-Twitter-Marketing-with-Memes.png\" alt=\"AppleTV Twitter Marketing with Memes\" class=\"wp-image-19273\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Image via&nbsp;<\/em><em><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/AppleTV\/status\/1134842611473117184\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Twitter<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For instance, Apple TV\u2019s audience is interested in movies. So, many of their memes on Twitter have movie references that will resonate with their audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Add Originality to Popular Memes<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Sure, you want to engage your audience by giving them a few good laughs. At the same time, don\u2019t forget that you are using marketing memes. You need to work to increase your brand awareness as well in your digital marketing. Everyone on social media is already sharing memes. So, to stand out, you\u2019ll have to put in some effort. Instead of just reposting a popular meme, get creative with your digital marketing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How can you capitalize on trending memes for online marketing purposes?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Understand what the meme implies and try to think of ways to align it with your brand or products. You could incorporate your brand\u2019s slogan, name, mission, or simply a picture into the meme for social media branding purposes. Ruffles, for example, often weaves their brand name into memes that go viral on social media. This type of meme-jacking can help your brand become more memorable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/shanebarker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/RUFFLES-Twitter-Marketing-with-Memes.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/shanebarker.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/RUFFLES-Twitter-Marketing-with-Memes.png\" alt=\"RUFFLES Twitter Marketing with Memes\" class=\"wp-image-19271\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Image via&nbsp;<\/em><em><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/RUFFLES\/status\/1137018901815013376\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Twitter<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Keep Up with What\u2019s Trending<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Timeliness is a crucial factor with meme marketing on social media. You should watch out for Twitter and Facebook trends to find out what people are talking about across different social media platforms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you can manage to create a meme based on the most popular trends at the right time, your are more likely to get a viral meme trending on social media. American restaurant chain, Denny\u2019s, is known for having a quirky sense of humor. They often find a popular meme and add their own flair to it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When Apple launched their new Mac Pro, netizens were discussing how it looked similar to a cheese grater.
