Starbucks coffee
Starbucks peaked around 2015 with new drinks and finally started to advertise seriously in 2015. The latte machiatto and the iced coffee were new last year and have helped Starbucks with sales. Starbucks peaked this year at around 19 billion dollars in revenues.
Nike
Nike Nike once again marketed very well in 2015. They are always coming out with new shoes and other types of clothing. Nike peaked 2105 with just over 30 billion in revenues.
Marvel
Marvel marketed their movies really well in 2015. "Avengers age of Ultron" was advertised very early in the year, which built a lot of suspense. From now on, any movie that marvel releases is a must-see.

Star wars episode 7
Star wars episode 7 "The force awakens" is a huge hit after only 2 weeks of being out! Like Avengers 2, star wars released trailers many months before coming out.
Adele
Adele marketed herself without doing that much to do it. She just laid back and watched while her music was becoming very popular. Adele's song "Hello" is played a lot on on radio stations and many people can relate to the sadness of the song, which is a great connection for Adele to have with her fans.I also think its impressive that she hadn't come out with a song until her album in 2015.
The Weeknd
The weeknd is a singer who has gotten very popular in 2015. He marketed well by putting his songs on the top radio stations, non-stop. Its also very impressive that The Weeknd wasn't very known before 2015 by many people.
