Well, as they say, there is no accounting for stupidity.
Google doodles have been a thing for years now.
At least half of those look like the brand was just trying to benefit from current events for some extra advertisement.
In particular, the Volkswagen logo for āsocial distancingā and the Lacoste logo for āendangered speciesā really look like promotional events more than actually defending a cause. And it worked, since newspapers published articles about those changes of logos.
And we canāt say they have branding problems, either.
Thatās expected. I never thought they did it for their grandmaās soul. Thatās free promotion for their brand. The point is, does it resonate with the public, creating a 0,001% more awareness?
