"It was refreshing to see global companies support small businesses, communicate messages about reconciliation and unity, and take an overall empathetic approach — using their power and soapbox for the greater good. They thoughtfully embraced the realities of the past year rather than ignore them. But it wasn’t easy. Marketers had to be careful not to do anything that could appear to exploit the situation or be self-serving." - Mark Stone
