In conducting this report only secondary research methodologies were used implementing resources such as using books and websites. In relation to the product life cycle it is evident that Coca-Cola Life is currently in the growth stage as it continues to increase sales. It is obvious that the product is within the category of non-durable goods. The 'core' product is a refreshing soft drink with a unique taste and 35% less sugar and kilojoules, sweetened with stevia as a natural source. The 'actual' product is a glass bottle with a brown liquid inside and a green label with a small leaf logo.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2014 in the subject Business economics - Marketing, Corporate Communication, CRM, Market Research, Social Media, 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.

Recommendations have been made to suggest that a more sustainable view of Coca-Cola Life and its environment could potentially increase market share and future profits.

This book was released on 2010-03-12 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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 an example and applies the findings on how consumers are emotionally attached by this brand and how it was able to find its way into consumers’ psyche. The basic knowledge of marketing and the nature of emotional branding as a specific marketing tool is provided in chapter two through the use of an extensive literature review, which examines the key theoretical perspectives influencing this study.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2011 in the subject Communications - Public Relations, Advertising, Marketing, Social Media, grade: 1,3, AKAD University of Applied Sciences Stuttgart, language: English, abstract: "Conjoint analysis has become one of today’s most widely used marketing research tools. It goes beyond simple surveys, providing a more realistic approach to understanding customers attitudes, opinions, and behaviors." (Orme, 2010, p. 7) The author Orme (2010, p. 7) emphasises in his book the growing popularity of conjoint analysis in marketing research. According to Orme (2010, p. 1) the consumer preferences are changing constantly with an increasing speed. Therefore many marketing managers ask themselves, how they could asses client preferences? Which product characteristics are most important to the customer and what price brings the maximum profit? From Wilcox’s (2003, p. 1) point of view conjoint analysis gives answers to these most critical questions of marketing research. The conjoint analysis is a marketing research technique designed to help managers determine the value system of clients and potential customers (Wilcox, 2003, p. 1). Introduced as a fundamental measurement method by the mathematical psychologists Luce and Tukey (1964, p. 1) more than forty years ago, conjoint analysis presents combination of features in product profiles and ask people to rank or make choice among of them. Finally, the results can be used for new product design, targeting, pricing and market segmentation (Dolan, 1990, p. 1). However, there arises the question what is conjoint analysis really and why it has become so popular in contrast to other marketing research techniques? In order to answer these questions, section 2.1 defines the terms marketing and market research and outlines the contrast between them. Section 2.2 gives an overview of different preference measurement techniques before it deals with the conjoint analysis itself. Chapter 3 presents the main chapter of this assignment. At first, it gives a brief overview of the role of conjoint analysis in the marketing concept. The next two sections illustrate an exemplary conjoint analysis survey and show the usage of conjoint analysis for the design of marketing strategies. Moreover chapter 4 discusses the advantages and disadvantages of conjoint analysis. Finally chapter 5 summarizes the basic insights and gives a short perspective.
