Also it is proven that Coke’s market share is seventeen percent higher than the next two competitors.

Pepsi does a stellar job when it comes to reaching out to their targets, they have social media outlets that describe and promote their new and old products allowing people to get an overall view on what it is Pepsi is selling to them. People like to know what it is they are purchasing and how many calories are in the product they are buying and Pepsi gives people all of these to look through.

Pepsi’s current challenge that is happening right now is to have people hash tag on Facebook, Instagram, and twitter using the phrase #PepsiChallenge. What Pepsi plans on doing with this is that for every person who uses the hash tag they created Pepsi will donate one dollar to the ‘Liter of Light’ organization which will bring light to people who are in need of it.

Marketing communication As several specialized sources report, in our today’s world it is no possible to think about customers just as passive receptors of marketing messages with no answer at all.

How the “Happy Socks” brand is trying to evoke desire to consumers through their philosophy, campaigns, and advertisements Brand attachment has been linked with the experience of positive emotions, and positive social contact.

The first ad for ‘Pepsi with a touch of lime’ shows a large can of Pepsi, with a personified lime peeing directly into the opening.
