Over 1,500 individuals participated in this year's Stukent + DECA Social Media Challenge. Participants tested their social media marketing skills by managing a $5,000 weekly budget in simulated ad dollars for a fictitious, global bag company. The strategy included marketing on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube and Pinterest.
