Q1: Consider PepsiCo's advertising throughout its history. Identify as many commonalties as possible across its various ad campaigns. How is this campaign consistent with PepsiCo's brand image?
A1:
a. Some of the earlier slogans have the commonality that you get more for the same price, that when you buy Pepsi you get more of flavor, amount and/or whatever than the competition offers. Pepsi is for everyone and that Pepsi alone can refresh or change the world. Many slogans have to deal with being young as well as being in the future. Most of the slogans indicate that if you want to be part of the future or new generation then you have to drink Pepsi. For example, their current 2012 slogan is “The Best Drink Created Worldwide.” Their latest campaign, called Pepsi Refresh, calls upon the masses to converge through philanthropy by utilizing alternative means. i.e. social media and social responsibility.
b. How is this campaign consistent with PepsiCo’s brand image?
It is consistent with the PepsiCo brand image because they target the younger nation and making it a better place for many generations to come. They started to advertise by reinvesting into the actual community to actually make the future better and also keep up with the theme of many of their advertisement efforts.
Pepsi always had new ideas on their advertisement to get consumer attention.
Q2: List all the promotional mix elements used in Pepsi Refresh campaign. What grade would you give PepsiCo on integrating these elements into an integration marketing communications campaign?

    Another technique that Pepsi has used in its advertisement is glittering Generalities. Glittering generalities are emotionally appealing words that are applied to a product or idea, but present no concrete argument or analysis. Pepsi used a slogan in its advertisement “for those who think young”. This kind of propaganda often succeeds because many people have a desire not to be different. The slogan “for those who think young” makes the young people think that…

    Coke vs Pepsi

    • 688 Words
    • 3 Pages

    Coke and Pepsi have always been rival beverages for decades. I can remember my teens when most households would divide into two when it came to choosing their choice of drink, especially when going for grocery shopping. Even the advert aired by both brands shows a lot of rivalries between them. When one makes a new product, the other would do everything possible to make something similar or better than the former. Making people, both old and young believe their product is the best. When comparing the two beverages, there’s a major thing we normally notice from their commercials, while Coca-Cola Company uses families and animal in most of their commercial ads relating to peoples society, Pepsi Company uses different super stars and celebrities to sell their product worldwide. However, as coke uses their ethos in targeting both the old and young generation, Pepsi target mostly today’s youth in their adverts.…

    Advertising is an extremely powerful form of communication and persuasion. The Coca-Cola Company has had such great success with advertising that the second most recognized words or phrase on earth is, in fact, “Coca-Cola.” This was extremely surprising to me because Coca-Cola is an American brand of soda that has had such successful sales and ads that it has become popular world-wide. A major factor of Coca Cola’s success if its advertisements that can be seen everywhere, from billboards to famous TV commercials that are watched on YouTube. Without advertising, the Coca-Cola Company would not be as successful as it is today.…

    For decades Pepsi has defined itself through the wizardry of the slogan, the jingle and the storyboard and all that a succession of four ad agencies has spun from them. One hundred years after New Bern, N.C., druggist Caleb Bradham called it Pepsi-Cola (actually, Caleb Cola would have had a nice ring and spared Mr. Bradham the necessity of buying out an existing trademark, Pep-Kola, for the princely sum of $100), this worldly and sophisticated company still succumbs to the temptation to see itself as the ``feisty newcomer'' struggling in the shadow of tradition and Americana cast by ``the competitor.'' (Martin, 1962)…

    PEPSI: Refresh Project
The social-media-driven campaign from TBWA/Chiat/Day, L.A., which saw the marketer divert its Super Bowl budget toward social causes, has been one of the most -- dare we say -- important brand efforts of the year. Demonstrating what a reallocation of a portion of a mega media budget could do, the campaign ended this year with nearly three billion media impressions, 51 million votes from a broad demographic sample and millions given to worthwhile grassroots causes. The campaign has been a massive success in terms of awareness and -- say Pepsi bottlers, no less -- palpable goodwill toward the brand.…

    Pepsi vs Coke

    • 1511 Words
    • 7 Pages

    . Pepsi’s starting point in its marketing campaign was its position as “The Choice of a new Generation.” Pepsi concentrated on the user of the drink, never the drink, while as Coca Cola did the opposite. In order to enhance the user interface of its campaign, Pepsi began lifestyle marketing, the first and longest-running lifestyle campaign that continues until this day. Pepsi showed people riding dirt bikes, waterskiing, and hand gliding and ended with a Pepsi as their reward. Its advertisements also often focused on celebrities such as Mariah Carey, KISS, Tine Turner, Britney Spears, Madonna, and Ray Charles choosing Pepsi over Coke. This was strategic movement since it was also during the time in which colored television came. Coca Cola also used celebrities such as Whitney Houston, Paula Abdul, Christina Aguilera, and Elton John to advertise its drinks. With mutually…

    My opinion of the Pepsi commercial is that the ad was unsuccessful on the topic of easing tensions and bringing individuals together to “live bolder”. In fact, it only caused more tensions and started back the conversation of the events rather than, “joining” them. Such as the aspect of Black Lives Matter and the shootings by the police. Another approach or idea to the commercial is that Pepsi should remove these events to their commercial to prevent tensions from arising. An idea for example, could be a more relaxed approach such as a conversation between individuals or a sporting event. Because Pepsi is already a globalized company with business across the world, the commercial could be more relaxed and nonpolitical approach that could be more successful. These aspects displayed in the commercial were too conversational that the media only criticized the issue of the ad, rather than understanding the commercials approach. For example, Martin Luther Kings son, Bernice King tweeted, “If only Daddy would have known about the power of #Pepsi”. Others say that this power is ignorant or not being a realistic factor. TV personal on SNL and other comedians had a field day with the commercial itself, exaggerating the details within their own opinions of the ad. These TV celebrities showcase and glorify the commercial to make the ad even more public for more…

    Pepsi Stereotypes

    Pepsi born in North Carolina, which is very relevant in the ad, because the North Carolinas football’s team is Panthers, and they are doing a great job this season. The Panthers still undefeated 11-0 and are one of the favorites team to win the Super Bowl. In this ad, we can observe three people, two guys and a woman raising a Pepsi. They are wearing Panthers’ jerseys and obviously they look happy supporting their team. Pepsi is trying to not use stereotypes in this announcement but at the same time we can notice two men and one woman which shows us that there are more men who are interested in football than women. The good aspect of this ad is that it is multiracial; they are showing us that do not matter where we are from, we can be a Panthers…
