If a distributer doesn't own their own streaming service they can call upon others to help stream their media. in addition can use social media apps such as Twitter, Instagram, and Tiktok to promote a new project or film coming up and this is commonly used today.

    An example of these cross synergised being used is when Universal pictures was promoting the Super Mario Movie. One of many ways they promoted this movie was by contacting Mcdonalds to put super mario toys in happy meals to help promote the new movie. Happy meals are a way to promote this movie to its target audience being children and getting families to tag along. Furthermore collaborating with nintendo to help promote and advertise the movie in one of nintendos most important semi anually presentations called "Nintendo Direct" to promote and advertise the new movie coming out the millions of gamers around the world. another brand they collaborated with is amazon where they made costume made branded delivery boxes.

X formerly kown as Twitter is another popular social media app that advertised teasers, trailers, and clips of the movie reaching users of the app which gained the movie more traction.
