We can’t thank Twitter enough for this amazing and truly addicting 6-second video app called Vine. Even though our team of ninjas only recently jumped on the bandwagon, we’ve already picked out our favorites to follow. These companies took the risk of exploring something new within the social media world and we have to give them props for being the first to use Vine as a marketing tool. Check out these 5 top companies rocking Vine and learn from the avant-garde Vine users how they use it to strengthen their marketing strategy.

Show a product in motion. If you’re a food brand, don’t be afraid to play with food. If you’re a apparel brand, play dress up!

Popular among DIY-lovers, create a 6-second video showing how to do something that’s related to your brand. This can help establish your company as thought leaders or experts rather than just trying to sell a product.
