I think it is great to be able to find your names on a coke or your friends’ or relativies’ and buy one and give it to them as a present. It is also great to have a the best part of your favorite song on your coke bottle, I think coke does a great job at engaging with their customers. I like that they show a lot of great videos on Facebook such as the one for #CokeMini , it is known for one of the best adverstiments of the super bowl and customers liked how they added the Ant-Man and Hulk into this ad. Coca Cola does a great job at indentifying what characters of movies and celebrities are liked the most in the moment to add them into their advertisements. I like that they use a lot of Hashtags as well such as #ShareaCoke ,#CaptainAmericaCivilWar and #CokeMini,
Coca-Cola is no stranger to unique and creative advertisements. Over the past years, Coca-Cola has replaced their well-known logo with popular names. By personalizing their products, Coca-Cola has appealed to a larger range of consumers. One commercial I have watched on television is the ‘Share a Coke: Break the Ice” Coca-Cola commercial. The commercial includes two young people meeting and breaking the ice by sharing a coke with their names on it. I believe Coca-Cola is trying to send the message of sharing a coke with others. This commercial does not have a lot of speaking but the body language is very strong. This makes viewers feel excited and curious to see what will happen. I find this commercial to be very effective. The idea to have names on the bottles is very creative. If I were to see my name on a bottle, I would defiantly want to purchase the
After viewing the video presentation in my opinion Coke Scores a Goal at The World Cup made both marketing and Public Relation efforts. The sponsor of The World Cup is both from marketing and public relations stand point. For example, selling products during the games. In addition, they changed to a colorful eye catching packaging. In terms of public relations, they are reaching out internationally, to communities and sports camps in a charitable manner. This builds trust, loyalty and commitment.
They appealed to the struggle that average people have everyday and somehow found beauty in it. In the commercial, there is a shot of a child diving into a pool and scooping up Coke bottle caps from the bottom. This appeals to people who have memories of doing that same act in their own childhood. A private memory of a simple game was projected on screen. The imagery of the Coke logo became more than a soda brand, but a sense of
The Coca-Cola Company is one of the world’s leading drink organizations. Its red and white
Pathos, being the strategy most strongly used in this commercial, connects with the feelings of the audience. By featuring the commercial atop a green hill with a diverse group of people, Coca-Cola is showing that people of different cultures can come together in harmony, which aforementioned, was what people were looking for at this period in history. Not only the thought of harmony among groups of people, but the song that they sing together melodiously. When the commercial begins we see a young blonde woman begin the song, then she is joined by the rest of the crowd in singing, “I’d like to buy the world a home and furnish it with love…” along with other verses describing animals and pleasantries that would accompany them in furnishing this home. When we think of home, we think of a place where we can be loved and cared for, a place that is peaceful and pleasant (or this is what most people hope for), which is exactly what Coke describes to us as we watch enchanted by the beautiful voices of the people. Coca-Cola connects with us by evoking emotions of belongingness, love, peace and harmony amongst our fellow friends and people. This form of pathos is what really hooks the
Marketing for a New Coca Cola Drink The Coca Cola Company requires ideas on the development of a new fizzy Coca Cola Drink. It must utilise the flavours and styles of existing Coca Cola Fizzy Drinks, but capture a currently untapped or unfulfilled market segment. You need to consider the current market, find a suitable segment and develop a marketing strategy for your idea.
It is said that Coca-Cola Australia had originally called the campaign, “Project Connect” and it was also to get people to start talking about Coke again and having people consume the product. During the first summer that Share a Coke started, more than two hundred and fifty million bottles were sold due to the publicity that campaign was receiving in Australia alone. Statistics from that summer say that ninety six percent of social media posts were positive and that only the remaining four percent were negative. (www.coca-cola.com) In the advertisement, it is clear that the names on the label can bring people together at unexpected costs. It gives people a sense of hope that not every communication is on a handheld device but that it is face to face also. As it shows in this advertisement, the Share a Coke campaign has brought friends, family and even strangers at the pool
Numerous definitions of strategy exist, in most circumstances strategy can loosely be explained as an overall plan of deployment of resources to ascertain a favourable position within a market (Zablah, Bellenger and Johnston 2004; Grant 1994, p 14). Further, imbedded in many successful organisations are strategies, the importance of which is to remain relevant in the market, and successful in the various attributes of business; profiteering, employee motivation, maintaining sustainable core competencies, effectiveness in operation, or efficiency in the conduction of operations. Therefore challenges involved in the formulation and implementation of a strategy can revolve around the overall external market, as well as internal
The “Share a Coke” Campaign: In the summer of 2014, Coca-Cola began a new marketing campaign, “Share a Coke” which utilized the globally well recognized Coca-Cola logo, font, bottle, and colors. The campaign, which is still in use today, gives consumers the opportunity to share a custom moment with Coca-Cola products that have an individual’s name on the label instead of the traditional Coca-Cola logo. The basic 8, 16, and 20oz bottles started out with some of the most popular millennial names but has recently expanded to less common and even customizable name tags.

Coca-Cola could use its social media network to introduce its products. This could be beneficial to the company, increase awareness of other products and increase revenue. Threats – The ever changing health-consciousness attitudes of the market could have a serious impact on Coca-Cola. This is a dominant threat because people are constantly trying to change their eating and drinking habits. Social media could exploit the unhealthy side of Coca-Cola’s products and could potentially threaten the status and success of sales (Tanner, 2013).
Ultimately, Coca-Cola has influenced many different aspects of life. It has connected cultures all over the world, and brought happiness to many across the nations. The United States and Coca-Cola mirrored in their rise, and brought the world closer together. It is amazing how one drink can influence so many different types of people. Life as we know it today would be totally different without Coca-Cola.

PepsiCo is one of the most recognized names in the snack and beverage industry, with brands like Frito-lay, Gatorade, Tropicana, and Quaker, however, it is best known for its flagship soft drink brand - Pepsi and its rivalry with Coca-Cola. To begin, PepsiCo first caught my Interest in the way it manages its business and markets its products. PepsiCo being a relatively young company compared to its rival Coke, has proven to be a formidable opponent going “head to head” with one of the biggest companies in the world (Coca-Cola). Now, when I notice PepsiCo’s growth, the first thing that came to my mind was that it is thanks to its great marketing campaigns, that Pepsi has grown to become the globally recognized brand that it is today. I also admire PepsiCo because I think the there is a high level of entrepreneurship in the way they acquired smaller brands like Gatorade thereby eliminating their competition before they become competition.
As the world 's largest manufacturer and distributor of non-alcoholic beverages, Coca-Cola is certainly no stranger to global marketing.
