The purpose of the paper work is to analyze the principles of international marketing, to consider this kind of activities in The Coca Cola Company. In conditions of transition to a market economy, one of the factors of effective functioning of economic entities is the access of these entities to international markets. Marketing, as experts emphasize, is not only a theoretical but also a predominantly practical discipline that arose and developed as a result of economic activity in a market. Marketing in the course of its development has widely used the advanced achievements of science, it is an arsenal of modern techniques and methods of various scientific disciplines that are used to solve a wide range of tasks. In the current conditions of development of the economic sphere of society, which are characterized by the intensification of competition in world markets, increasingly complex technological and organizational models of production, extreme information saturation and efficiency of foreign economic activity, is closely linked with the goals and methodology of using marketing tools. Moreover, its international aspects are significantly updated due to the further internationalization of the world economy, expansion of international trade, more dynamic and massive movement of capital and labor. In conditions of rapid market development, the application of marketing strategies is one of the most important functions for organizations. Every year the competitive situation grows and is increasingly complicated due to the expansion of the borders of foreign markets, the presence in the domestic market of foreign firms with significant experience of international business. In such conditions, the growth of competitiveness in demonstrated by organizations that carry out their activities not only on the domestic market, but also on foreign markets. Organizations can count on successful conduct of business in foreign markets only if they have a good knowledge of the world situation and own the economic situation in international markets, which is connected with the need to have not only advanced achievements in the production of goods but also with effective marketing abroad. Today, the study and application of international marketing by organizations in their activities becomes a necessity.

  coca cola marketing strategy: Analysis of Marketing Strategies Used by PepsiCo Based on Ansoff's Theory Kristina Bachmeier, 2009-01-12 Seminar paper from the year 2008 in the subject Business economics - Offline Marketing and Online Marketing, grade: 2, University of applied sciences, Neuss, course: Marketing, language: English, abstract: Most leading companies today pursue multiple strategies for growth simultaneously in order to reach their strategic goals. It is important to verify how different growth strategies are appropriate for companies operating in different types of markets, and how changes in business environment make the same company decide on different strategic options at stage time in its organisational life cycle. The reason why firms succeed or fail is perhaps the central question in strategy. The firm needs a well-defined scope and growth direction, that objectives alone do not meet this need, and additional decision rules are required if the firm is to have orderly and profitable growth. Such decision rules and guidelines have been broadly defined as strategy or, sometimes, as the concept of the firm's business. The choice of a marketing growth strategy is a function of the strategic situation, organisational characteristics, and entrepreneur motivations. It is inherent to the process of strategy formulation. Companies must be flexible to respond rapidly to competition and market changes. They must benchmark continuously to achieve best practice.
  coca cola marketing strategy: International Marketing Strategies Christina Dost, 2006-10-25 Seminar paper from the year 2006 in the subject Business economics - Offline Marketing and Online Marketing, University of Applied Sciences Braunschweig / Wolfenbüttel, course: International Business, language: English, abstract: Since the word has both technical and political meanings, different groups will have differing histories of globalization. In general use within the field of economics and political economy, however, it is a history of increasing trade between nations based on stable institutions that allows firms in different nations to exchange goods and services with minimal friction. The term liberalization means the acceptance of the neoclassical economic model which is based on the unimpeded flow of goods and services between economic jurisdictions. This led to specialization of nations in exports, and the pressure to end protective tariffs and other barriers to trade. The period of the gold standard and liberalization of the 19th century is often called The First Era of Globalization. Based on the Pax Britannica and the exchange of goods in currencies pegged to specie, this era grew along with industrialization. The theoretical basis was David Ricardo's work on Comparative advantage and Say's Law of General equilibrium. In essence, it was argued that nations would trade effectively, and that any temporary disruptions in supply or demand would correct themselves automatically. The institution of the gold standard came in steps in major industrialized nations between approximately 1850 and 1880, though exactly when various nations were truly on the gold standard is contentiously debated. In the First Era of Globalization is said to have broken down in stages beginning with the First World War, and then collapsing with the crisis of the gold standard in the late 1920s and early 1930s. Countries that engaged in that era of globalization, including the European core, some of the European periphery and various European offshoots in America and Oceania, prospered. Inequality between those states fell, as goods, capital and labour flowed remarkably freely between nations.
  coca cola marketing strategy: Celebrity-Marketing: Market penetration by image transfer from stars using the example of the brand Coca-Cola light of the beverage producer Coca Cola. Katharina Krützkamp, 2013-11-14 Bachelor Thesis from the year 2013 in the subject Business economics - Offline Marketing and Online Marketing, grade: 2,1, University of Applied Sciences Essen, language: English, abstract: 1. Introduction 1.1 Aim of the paper The aim of this Bachelor thesis is to work out how celebrity marketing ideally works to make customers internalize the marketing objective. Strengthen the company’s image and brands, bonding customers and at least making profit. Among a lot of different marketing tools, celebrity marketing seems to be the most popular and promising one for companies to present their products excellently. Consequently, this paper answers the question, how especially celebrity marketing has to be developed in case of having a competitive advantage to competitors and the best effect on the customer. This paper focuses on a current example to explain how celebrity marketing is successfully applied in general and concerning to Coca Cola light’s activities. Before pointing out how to create effective celebrity marketing, this thesis presents the trends in marketing tools generally. The second problem statement is, if marketing is still promising in times of every company doing it. Purpose of this thesis is then to analyze Coca Cola light’s campaign concerning success potential and develop a future outlook to outline the development of celebrity marketing as a form of modern communication between company and customer and discuss Coca Cola light’s position in celebrity marketing referring to the latest campaign. 1.2 Relevance of the topic Nowadays, due to ongoing globalization and consequently the increasing fierce competition between the global operating companies, remaining competitive is getting harder. To establish a sustainable competitive advantage, many companies use a popular testimonial to advertise their product. Especially leading brands and companies wanting to strengthen their brand equity, benefit from this type of marketing. By the successful image transfer the brand is getting an added value as well as an improved band image and a strengthen customer loyalty. But celebrity marketing has disadvantages on the other side, too. This is proved in latest studies showing that celebrity marketing’s success have decreased recently. Often, credibility of the brand suffers as a result of a celebrity having more than one advertising contract for different products. Celebrity marketing can be more than just endorsing the company’s product. It has the chance to become the connecting link between the company - and the brand it stands for – and the customer by creating emotionality and interest.

  coca cola marketing strategy: An Investigation Into the Role of Emotional Branding in the Cola Market with Particular Reference to Coca-Cola Miriam Mennen, 2010-03 Bachelor Thesis from the year 2005 in the subject Communications - Public Relations, Advertising, Marketing, Social Media, grade: 70 % - A, New College Durham, course: BA (HONS) Management, Business and Administration, language: English, abstract: The business area of marketing has become increasingly important over the last few decades turning marketing activities into a critical success factor. Emotional benefits in marketing have received more and more attention and discussion because they work beyond the awareness of the customer and influence their buying behaviour. In an article from the Canadian Marketing Association, Glenn Livingston (2004) says that most of the people do not want to believe that they are or can be emotionally influenced by brands. They do not want to admit to using brands as a method of partially supporting their self-esteem but this is what makes the emotional benefit motivation such an important technique in marketing. It is the case that emotional benefits are so elusive and hidden that it makes them incredibly powerful and persuasive. Companies like Coca-Cola, Gillette or Victoria's Secret understand the art of accessing, with intelligence and sensitivity, the true power behind human emotions. They form their brands in a way that they become a face and a character in order to reach the overall aim: the identification of customers with the brand. Today's most successful brands have built relationships with consumers by engaging them in a personal dialogue that responds to their needs. In fact, many brands make the mistake of trying to force the emotional benefit by telling the customer directly. As soon as this thought is then put into language and made conscious, a person's adult mind will make rational decisions and realize that this product does not make them a different person. As Coca-Cola is the number one on the Interbrand's Annual Ranking of 100 of the World's Most Valuable Brands, the researcher will take this brand as a

  coca cola marketing strategy: Coca-Cola Company. History, SWOT analysis, maketing strategies Carol Nganga, 2014-09-10 Seminar paper from the year 2012 in the subject Business economics - Economic and Social History, grade: B, The University of Liverpool, language: English, abstract: Coca-Cola Company has a long history dating back to 1886, when John Pemberton made Coca Cola syrup at his back yard and carried them to Jacob’s pharmacy for sale. In the year 1887, the founder of the Coca-Cola, John Pemberton sold the enterprise to another chemist, Asa Chandelier. Asa Chandelier, through his efforts, turned the Coca-Cola Company in an international path through aggressive advertisements and marketing. At the time, the company manufactured only one brand: the Coca-Cola. However, over the years, it now manufactures about 400 brands in over 200 countries. During the early years of production, the company sold the beverages in glasses, from a fountain in the Jacobs pharmacy. However, in late 19th century, two lawyers obtained permission from Chandelier to sell the beverage in bottles. This was the beginning of the Coca-Cola bottled beverage, which is now carried anywhere all over the world. Around this time, the company put up a competition for the design of the Coca-Cola bottle. An Indiana company won the tender to manufacture the Coca-Cola bottle. Their decision was convinced by the fact that the company manufactured a unique, decent looking bottle, which could be recognized in the dark. The shape is still retained by Coca-Cola Company to date. This step was geared towards isolating the Coca-Cola Company from other beverage companies because of its unique attributes. The bottle was to help the consumers identify the product. The company changed hands again in 1919 when the company was sold to Ernest Woodruff for $25. Woodruff later entrusted the company to his son Robert Woodruff in 1923. Robert was a particularly smart man in business and he is entrusted with the honor of introducing the Coca-Cola to the world Olympic Games in 1928. He also pioneered the packaging of the Coca-Cola drink in six packs and other easy to carry packages. The company received worldwide publicity due to the Olympic Games, and it expanded distribution to many countries outside the US and made two distribution lines in the US. Another boost to the worldwide publicity of Coca-Cola was the fact that when the American government entered the World War II, Coca-Cola Company still under the leadership of Woodruff, offered it for sale at a lower rate to uniformed soldiers and the company bore the costs.

  coca cola marketing strategy: Strategy, Structure, and Antitrust in the Carbonated Soft-Drink Industry Timothy Muris, David T. Scheffman, Pablo T. Spiller, 1993-05-30 Pepsi-Cola and Coca-Cola are widely recognized as being two of the premier marketing companies in the world. They have introduced a great variety of new products and package types. They have raised celebrity advertising to a new level. Coca-Cola even changed the formula for Coke. These and other developments in the carbonated soft drink industry came about from major strategy changes by Pepsi-Cola and Coca-Cola. Rather than simply reacting to a changing competitive environment, PepsiCo and The Coca-Cola Company have created and implemented strategies that turned the new environment to their advantage. Although Pepsi-Cola attacked Coca-Cola's dominance and achieved near-parity with Coke in bottled soft drinks, both Coke and Pepsi have benefitted from fighting the Cola Wars. The battle between them has stimulated continuing growth in an industry regularly pronounced by the experts for many years to be on the verge of maturity. One widely ignored aspect of the Cola Wars is the ongoing transformation of the soft drink distribution systems of Coca-Cola and Pepsi-Cola from systems of independent bottlers to captive bottling subsidiaries. Chandler advanced the hypothesis that successful firms develop strategies to take advantage of new opportunities, and that those strategies then determine the organizational structure required for effective implementation. We find that changes in the organization of the two leading carbonated soft drink firms' distribution systems provide support for Chandler's hypothesis. The independent bottling systems were a unique and effective organization for many decades. Changes in the external environment, however, raised the costs of transacting between the parent concentrate manufacturers and their independent bottlers. In particular, the new competitive environment required rapidly changing product and marketing strategies, and the implementation of these strategies required the close cooperation of the distribution systems. In effect, Coke and Pepsi needed to change the organization of their distribution systems to implement effectively the strategies that stimulated the new competitive environment, because the relative transaction costs of the independent bottling systems in the new environment were too high. The book presents a strategic analysis of the history of the industry.
  coca cola marketing strategy: Analysis of key marketing themes for Pepsi-Cola Benjamin Pommer, 2014-08-25 Seminar paper from the year 2014 in the subject Business economics - Offline Marketing and Online Marketing, grade: 1,3, University of Applied Sciences Essen, language: English, abstract: PepsiCo is a global consumption goods company with a very diversified portfolio. The company focuses on beverages and “junk” food. When it comes to brand value and numbers of sold cola beverages, Coca-Cola Co has a unique market share. Especially on the cola-market, both companies are the most successful competitors worldwide. In Germany, Pepsi-Cola has not been as long on the market as Coca-Cola. None-theless, Pepsi proved to be a strong opponent by initiating clever marketing cam-paigns. However, the German market for cola products is much more competitive than the US-market. The strategic planning analysis of PepsiCo, using Kotler’s four P’s, shows, how much Pepsi-Cola’s suffers from its lack of image compared to Coca-Cola. Pepsi-Cola is very present in retails and commercials, but does not have a trustful brand image. Pepsi-Cola’s image as a cheap cola drink is a threat to its future deveopment, because a decline in the product-life-cycle is possible. PepsiCo’s focus on the German beverage market needs to include a product development, that show consumers, that Pepsi-Cola can be a tasty as well as a sustainable product. The strategy of product diversification must not contain Pepsi-Cola as the main beverage drink of the company.
  coca cola marketing strategy: Always Coca-Cola Alexandra Chreiteh, 2012-11-01 The narrator of Always Coca-Cola, Abeer Ward (fragrant rose, in Arabic), daughter of a conservative family, admits wryly that her name is also the name of her father’s flower shop. Abeer’s bedroom window is filled by a view of a Coca-Cola sign featuring the image of her sexually adventurous friend, Jana. From the novel’s opening paragraph—“When my mother was pregnant with me, she had only one craving. That craving was for Coca-Cola”—first-time novelist Alexandra Chreiteh asks us to see, with wonder, humor, and dismay, how inextricably confused naming and desire, identity and branding are. The names—and the novel’s edgy, cynical humor—might be recognizable across languages, but Chreiteh’s novel is first and foremost an exploration of a specific Lebanese milieu. Critics in Lebanon have called the novel “an electric shock.”

  coca cola marketing strategy: Principles of marketing CRISTINA CALVO PORRAL , JOHN L. STANTON, 2017-03-08 Mrketing reversed prior business logic 50 years ago and said «the customer is king», and the companies began to recognize that it was not just the product that was the most important aspect of their business.

This first book by a Coca-Cola CEO tells an extraordinary personal and professional world-wide story, ranging from Northern Ireland to South Africa to Australia, the Philippines, Russia, Germany, India, South Africa and Turkey. Isdell helped put out huge public relations fires (India and Turkey), opened markets(Russia, Eastern Europe, Philippines and Africa), championed Muhtar Kent, the current Turkish-American CEO, all while living the ideal of corporate responsibility. Isdell's, and Coke's, story is newsy without being gossipy; principled without being preachy. Inside Coca-Cola is filled with stories and lessons appealing to anybody who has ever taken the pause that refreshes. It's also a readable and important look at how companies can market and govern themselves more-ethically and to great success.

William M. O’Barr calls it “conditioning of the consumers.” Advertisements can be analysed from different perspectives. For instance, Philip Nelson, in his study “Advertising as Information,” analyses advertisements based on the capacity of advertisements to direct the information toward the consumers, helping them separate one brand from another. Demetrios Vakratsas and Tim Ambler, in their study “How Advertising Works: What Do We Really Know?” discussed factors like “consumer’s belief and attitudes” and “behavioral effects” leading to purchasing behavior and brand choice. Research and advertising are intertwined, and it helps to explore the horizon of advertising that helps to improve the advertising industry. The book “Advertising: Methods, Research and Practices” offers a collection of concepts and perspectives like brand identity, buying habits, online advertising, digital gaming, political advertising, contemporary Indian advertising, new age advertising, the impact of advertising on food habits and consumption preferences, AI intervention in advertising, unethical advertising practices, chocolate advertising, marketing of toys, Digital marketing and advertising.

This important book raises all the key questions in managing customers, provides the analytical tools for optimization, and illustrates these tools with a number of company examples.” —Philip Kotler, S.

  coca-cola marketing strategy: International Marketing Strategy of Coca Cola Company Umut Çelik, 2017-09-04 Seminar paper from the year 2017 in the subject Business economics - Offline Marketing and Online Marketing, ESC Dijon Bourgogne - Burgundy School of Business, language: English, abstract: The subject of the study is marketing in international markets, the subject of research is the essence and the system of it. The purpose of the paper work is to analyze the principles of international marketing, to consider this kind of activities in The Coca Cola Company. In conditions of transition to a market economy, one of the factors of effective functioning of economic entities is the access of these entities to international markets. Marketing, as experts emphasize, is not only a theoretical but also a predominantly practical discipline that arose and developed as a result of economic activity in a market. Marketing in the course of its development has widely used the advanced achievements of science, it is an arsenal of modern techniques and methods of various scientific disciplines that are used to solve a wide range of tasks. In the current conditions of development of the economic sphere of society, which are characterized by the intensification of competition in world markets, increasingly complex technological and organizational models of production, extreme information saturation and efficiency of foreign economic activity, is closely linked with the goals and methodology of using marketing tools. Moreover, its international aspects are significantly updated due to the further internationalization of the world economy, expansion of international trade, more dynamic and massive movement of capital and labor. In conditions of rapid market development, the application of marketing strategies is one of the most important functions for organizations. Every year the competitive situation grows and is increasingly complicated due to the expansion of the borders of foreign markets, the presence in the domestic market of foreign firms with significant experience of international business. In such conditions, the growth of competitiveness in demonstrated by organizations that carry out their activities not only on the domestic market, but also on foreign markets. Organizations can count on successful conduct of business in foreign markets only if they have a good knowledge of the world situation and own the economic situation in international markets, which is connected with the need to have not only advanced achievements in the production of goods but also with effective marketing abroad. Today, the study and application of international marketing by organizations in their activities becomes a necessity.

  coca-cola marketing strategy: Analysis of Marketing Strategies Used by PepsiCo Based on Ansoff's Theory Kristina Bachmeier, 2009-01-12 Seminar paper from the year 2008 in the subject Business economics - Offline Marketing and Online Marketing, grade: 2, University of applied sciences, Neuss, course: Marketing, language: English, abstract: Most leading companies today pursue multiple strategies for growth simultaneously in order to reach their strategic goals. It is important to verify how different growth strategies are appropriate for companies operating in different types of markets, and how changes in business environment make the same company decide on different strategic options at stage time in its organisational life cycle. The reason why firms succeed or fail is perhaps the central question in strategy. The firm needs a well-defined scope and growth direction, that objectives alone do not meet this need, and additional decision rules are required if the firm is to have orderly and profitable growth. Such decision rules and guidelines have been broadly defined as strategy or, sometimes, as the concept of the firm's business. The choice of a marketing growth strategy is a function of the strategic situation, organisational characteristics, and entrepreneur motivations. It is inherent to the process of strategy formulation. Companies must be flexible to respond rapidly to competition and market changes. They must benchmark continuously to achieve best practice.
  coca-cola marketing strategy: International Marketing Strategies Christina Dost, 2006-10-25 Seminar paper from the year 2006 in the subject Business economics - Offline Marketing and Online Marketing, University of Applied Sciences Braunschweig / Wolfenbüttel, course: International Business, language: English, abstract: Since the word has both technical and political meanings, different groups will have differing histories of globalization. In general use within the field of economics and political economy, however, it is a history of increasing trade between nations based on stable institutions that allows firms in different nations to exchange goods and services with minimal friction. The term liberalization means the acceptance of the neoclassical economic model which is based on the unimpeded flow of goods and services between economic jurisdictions. This led to specialization of nations in exports, and the pressure to end protective tariffs and other barriers to trade. The period of the gold standard and liberalization of the 19th century is often called The First Era of Globalization. Based on the Pax Britannica and the exchange of goods in currencies pegged to specie, this era grew along with industrialization. The theoretical basis was David Ricardo's work on Comparative advantage and Say's Law of General equilibrium. In essence, it was argued that nations would trade effectively, and that any temporary disruptions in supply or demand would correct themselves automatically. The institution of the gold standard came in steps in major industrialized nations between approximately 1850 and 1880, though exactly when various nations were truly on the gold standard is contentiously debated. In the First Era of Globalization is said to have broken down in stages beginning with the First World War, and then collapsing with the crisis of the gold standard in the late 1920s and early 1930s. Countries that engaged in that era of globalization, including the European core, some of the European periphery and various European offshoots in America and Oceania, prospered. Inequality between those states fell, as goods, capital and labour flowed remarkably freely between nations.
  coca-cola marketing strategy: Celebrity-Marketing: Market penetration by image transfer from stars using the example of the brand Coca-Cola light of the beverage producer Coca Cola. Katharina Krützkamp, 2013-11-14 Bachelor Thesis from the year 2013 in the subject Business economics - Offline Marketing and Online Marketing, grade: 2,1, University of Applied Sciences Essen, language: English, abstract: 1. Introduction 1.1 Aim of the paper The aim of this Bachelor thesis is to work out how celebrity marketing ideally works to make customers internalize the marketing objective. Strengthen the company’s image and brands, bonding customers and at least making profit. Among a lot of different marketing tools, celebrity marketing seems to be the most popular and promising one for companies to present their products excellently. Consequently, this paper answers the question, how especially celebrity marketing has to be developed in case of having a competitive advantage to competitors and the best effect on the customer. This paper focuses on a current example to explain how celebrity marketing is successfully applied in general and concerning to Coca Cola light’s activities. Before pointing out how to create effective celebrity marketing, this thesis presents the trends in marketing tools generally. The second problem statement is, if marketing is still promising in times of every company doing it. Purpose of this thesis is then to analyze Coca Cola light’s campaign concerning success potential and develop a future outlook to outline the development of celebrity marketing as a form of modern communication between company and customer and discuss Coca Cola light’s position in celebrity marketing referring to the latest campaign. 1.2 Relevance of the topic Nowadays, due to ongoing globalization and consequently the increasing fierce competition between the global operating companies, remaining competitive is getting harder. To establish a sustainable competitive advantage, many companies use a popular testimonial to advertise their product. Especially leading brands and companies wanting to strengthen their brand equity, benefit from this type of marketing. By the successful image transfer the brand is getting an added value as well as an improved band image and a strengthen customer loyalty. But celebrity marketing has disadvantages on the other side, too. This is proved in latest studies showing that celebrity marketing’s success have decreased recently. Often, credibility of the brand suffers as a result of a celebrity having more than one advertising contract for different products. Celebrity marketing can be more than just endorsing the company’s product. It has the chance to become the connecting link between the company - and the brand it stands for – and the customer by creating emotionality and interest.

  coca-cola marketing strategy: An Investigation Into the Role of Emotional Branding in the Cola Market with Particular Reference to Coca-Cola Miriam Mennen, 2010-03 Bachelor Thesis from the year 2005 in the subject Communications - Public Relations, Advertising, Marketing, Social Media, grade: 70 % - A, New College Durham, course: BA (HONS) Management, Business and Administration, language: English, abstract: The business area of marketing has become increasingly important over the last few decades turning marketing activities into a critical success factor. Emotional benefits in marketing have received more and more attention and discussion because they work beyond the awareness of the customer and influence their buying behaviour. In an article from the Canadian Marketing Association, Glenn Livingston (2004) says that most of the people do not want to believe that they are or can be emotionally influenced by brands. They do not want to admit to using brands as a method of partially supporting their self-esteem but this is what makes the emotional benefit motivation such an important technique in marketing. It is the case that emotional benefits are so elusive and hidden that it makes them incredibly powerful and persuasive. Companies like Coca-Cola, Gillette or Victoria's Secret understand the art of accessing, with intelligence and sensitivity, the true power behind human emotions. They form their brands in a way that they become a face and a character in order to reach the overall aim: the identification of customers with the brand. Today's most successful brands have built relationships with consumers by engaging them in a personal dialogue that responds to their needs. In fact, many brands make the mistake of trying to force the emotional benefit by telling the customer directly. As soon as this thought is then put into language and made conscious, a person's adult mind will make rational decisions and realize that this product does not make them a different person. As Coca-Cola is the number one on the Interbrand's Annual Ranking of 100 of the World's Most Valuable Brands, the researcher will take this brand as a

  coca-cola marketing strategy: Coca-Cola Company. History, SWOT analysis, maketing strategies Carol Nganga, 2014-09-10 Seminar paper from the year 2012 in the subject Business economics - Economic and Social History, grade: B, The University of Liverpool, language: English, abstract: Coca-Cola Company has a long history dating back to 1886, when John Pemberton made Coca Cola syrup at his back yard and carried them to Jacob’s pharmacy for sale. In the year 1887, the founder of the Coca-Cola, John Pemberton sold the enterprise to another chemist, Asa Chandelier. Asa Chandelier, through his efforts, turned the Coca-Cola Company in an international path through aggressive advertisements and marketing. At the time, the company manufactured only one brand: the Coca-Cola. However, over the years, it now manufactures about 400 brands in over 200 countries. During the early years of production, the company sold the beverages in glasses, from a fountain in the Jacobs pharmacy. However, in late 19th century, two lawyers obtained permission from Chandelier to sell the beverage in bottles. This was the beginning of the Coca-Cola bottled beverage, which is now carried anywhere all over the world. Around this time, the company put up a competition for the design of the Coca-Cola bottle. An Indiana company won the tender to manufacture the Coca-Cola bottle. Their decision was convinced by the fact that the company manufactured a unique, decent looking bottle, which could be recognized in the dark. The shape is still retained by Coca-Cola Company to date. This step was geared towards isolating the Coca-Cola Company from other beverage companies because of its unique attributes. The bottle was to help the consumers identify the product. The company changed hands again in 1919 when the company was sold to Ernest Woodruff for $25. Woodruff later entrusted the company to his son Robert Woodruff in 1923. Robert was a particularly smart man in business and he is entrusted with the honor of introducing the Coca-Cola to the world Olympic Games in 1928. He also pioneered the packaging of the Coca-Cola drink in six packs and other easy to carry packages. The company received worldwide publicity due to the Olympic Games, and it expanded distribution to many countries outside the US and made two distribution lines in the US. Another boost to the worldwide publicity of Coca-Cola was the fact that when the American government entered the World War II, Coca-Cola Company still under the leadership of Woodruff, offered it for sale at a lower rate to uniformed soldiers and the company bore the costs.

  coca-cola marketing strategy: Strategy, Structure, and Antitrust in the Carbonated Soft-Drink Industry Timothy Muris, David T. Scheffman, Pablo T. Spiller, 1993-05-30 Pepsi-Cola and Coca-Cola are widely recognized as being two of the premier marketing companies in the world. They have introduced a great variety of new products and package types. They have raised celebrity advertising to a new level. Coca-Cola even changed the formula for Coke. These and other developments in the carbonated soft drink industry came about from major strategy changes by Pepsi-Cola and Coca-Cola. Rather than simply reacting to a changing competitive environment, PepsiCo and The Coca-Cola Company have created and implemented strategies that turned the new environment to their advantage. Although Pepsi-Cola attacked Coca-Cola's dominance and achieved near-parity with Coke in bottled soft drinks, both Coke and Pepsi have benefitted from fighting the Cola Wars. The battle between them has stimulated continuing growth in an industry regularly pronounced by the experts for many years to be on the verge of maturity. One widely ignored aspect of the Cola Wars is the ongoing transformation of the soft drink distribution systems of Coca-Cola and Pepsi-Cola from systems of independent bottlers to captive bottling subsidiaries. Chandler advanced the hypothesis that successful firms develop strategies to take advantage of new opportunities, and that those strategies then determine the organizational structure required for effective implementation. We find that changes in the organization of the two leading carbonated soft drink firms' distribution systems provide support for Chandler's hypothesis. The independent bottling systems were a unique and effective organization for many decades. Changes in the external environment, however, raised the costs of transacting between the parent concentrate manufacturers and their independent bottlers. In particular, the new competitive environment required rapidly changing product and marketing strategies, and the implementation of these strategies required the close cooperation of the distribution systems. In effect, Coke and Pepsi needed to change the organization of their distribution systems to implement effectively the strategies that stimulated the new competitive environment, because the relative transaction costs of the independent bottling systems in the new environment were too high. The book presents a strategic analysis of the history of the industry.
  coca-cola marketing strategy: Always Coca-Cola Alexandra Chreiteh, 2012-11-01 The narrator of Always Coca-Cola, Abeer Ward (fragrant rose, in Arabic), daughter of a conservative family, admits wryly that her name is also the name of her father’s flower shop. Abeer’s bedroom window is filled by a view of a Coca-Cola sign featuring the image of her sexually adventurous friend, Jana. From the novel’s opening paragraph—“When my mother was pregnant with me, she had only one craving. That craving was for Coca-Cola”—first-time novelist Alexandra Chreiteh asks us to see, with wonder, humor, and dismay, how inextricably confused naming and desire, identity and branding are. The names—and the novel’s edgy, cynical humor—might be recognizable across languages, but Chreiteh’s novel is first and foremost an exploration of a specific Lebanese milieu. Critics in Lebanon have called the novel “an electric shock.”
  coca-cola marketing strategy: Analysis of key marketing themes for Pepsi-Cola Benjamin Pommer, 2014-08-25 Seminar paper from the year 2014 in the subject Business economics - Offline Marketing and Online Marketing, grade: 1,3, University of Applied Sciences Essen, language: English, abstract: PepsiCo is a global consumption goods company with a very diversified portfolio. The company focuses on beverages and “junk” food. When it comes to brand value and numbers of sold cola beverages, Coca-Cola Co has a unique market share. Especially on the cola-market, both companies are the most successful competitors worldwide. In Germany, Pepsi-Cola has not been as long on the market as Coca-Cola. None-theless, Pepsi proved to be a strong opponent by initiating clever marketing cam-paigns. However, the German market for cola products is much more competitive than the US-market. The strategic planning analysis of PepsiCo, using Kotler’s four P’s, shows, how much Pepsi-Cola’s suffers from its lack of image compared to Coca-Cola. Pepsi-Cola is very present in retails and commercials, but does not have a trustful brand image. Pepsi-Cola’s image as a cheap cola drink is a threat to its future deveopment, because a decline in the product-life-cycle is possible. PepsiCo’s focus on the German beverage market needs to include a product development, that show consumers, that Pepsi-Cola can be a tasty as well as a sustainable product. The strategy of product diversification must not contain Pepsi-Cola as the main beverage drink of the company.

Vinaya Kumar, Dr. Shruti Mehrotra, Dr. Reshmi Naskar, Sumedha Halder, 2024-05-25 Millions of people are exposed to thousands of brands daily through different means, and we may categorise some as advertisements. William M. O’Barr calls it “conditioning of the consumers.” Advertisements can be analysed from different perspectives. For instance, Philip Nelson, in his study “Advertising as Information,” analyses advertisements based on the capacity of advertisements to direct the information toward the consumers, helping them separate one brand from another. Demetrios Vakratsas and Tim Ambler, in their study “How Advertising Works: What Do We Really Know?” discussed factors like “consumer’s belief and attitudes” and “behavioral effects” leading to purchasing behavior and brand choice. Research and advertising are intertwined, and it helps to explore the horizon of advertising that helps to improve the advertising industry. The book “Advertising: Methods, Research and Practices” offers a collection of concepts and perspectives like brand identity, buying habits, online advertising, digital gaming, political advertising, contemporary Indian advertising, new age advertising, the impact of advertising on food habits and consumption preferences, AI intervention in advertising, unethical advertising practices, chocolate advertising, marketing of toys, Digital marketing and advertising. The chapters also include metaphorical language in advertising, advertising appeals, e-sport marketing, sustainable advertising, celebrity and advertising, subliminal advertising, MSME and advertising, women in advertising, public service advertising, advertisement for positive behavior change, advertisements on menstrual health and hygiene and many more. Collectively, the chapters would help in understanding the different perspectives of advertising as practice as well as the dimensions of research requirements.
