As a brand that sells a beverage that helps people fall asleep, Good Night Drink wanted to create a campaign that would also highlight music as a natural sleep aid. As a result, #GoodNightMusic was created.

The beverage brand put out a call to both existing and prospective consumers on [Twitter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/notifier), asking them to submit a song that helps ease them into sleep. As a result, a comprehensive [crowdsourced list of soothing songs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/personalized-sleep-tracks) was generated on [YouTube](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kfc-x-hatch), creating an extensive list of tracks to fall asleep to.

As insomnia and other sleep problems are a big problem around the world, this brand campaign is a clever way to show that a quick fix doesn't always have to come from a product, although that is also an option.
