Corona Light saw declining sales in 2010 and launched a campaign on Facebook to encourage users to like the Corona Light page. Photos uploaded by fans would be projected on a digital billboard in Times Square and also shared on Facebook. The goal was to break into the digital market and appeal to socially engaged young adults, while claiming the title of the most liked light beer and increasing fans, especially those aged 21-29. The campaign was a major success, growing Facebook likes by 6,000% and providing new ways to measure engagement.
