It’s an interesting way to deploy content to our rabid fans.”Other exclusive content will also be revealed on PLL’s official twitter account, as well on cast member twitter accounts.Using the Snapchat marketing campaign isn’t anything new, in fact there are other televised series that have used this sort of marketing plan before.
