We all love a guilty pleasure. From reality TV to Britney Spears to a 1 am trip to your favorite fast-food restaurant. Maybe you enjoy all three of those! There’s nothing wrong with that, and here at Often Imitated, we will always be team #FreeBritney.
What all of these have in common is that they form consumers’ experiences and emotions into creating lasting memories.
