Sentence 121

Before
But it’s not just organizations such as Facebook, Starbucks and Amazon that are riding this new wave to enhance customer experiences, drive an emotional resonance with its global brands, and build loyal customer relationships.

After
But it’s not just organizations such as Facebook, Starbucks, and Amazon that are riding this wave to enhance customer experiences, strike an emotional chord with their global brands and build loyal customer relationships.

Changed "with its global brands" to "with their global brands" since there are several brands being discussed.
