Branding achievements at Coca-Cola strongly
rely on emotional connections. Consumers connect Coca-Cola with positive
feelings of happiness through nostalgic memories and traditional elements
because of its endless cultural engagement and marketing initiatives. The
holiday commercials showing Santa Claus create an atmosphere of familiarity and
emotional warmth between the brand and consumers (Pendergrast, 2013).
Customer Engagement
Throughout its history Coca-Cola has
consistently interacted with consumers through various progressive marketing
approaches. By placing customers' names on “Share a Coke” bottle products
Coca-Cola developed more personalized consumer engagement thus deepening their
brand relationships. Through FIFA World Cup and Olympic Games sponsorships
Coca-Cola establishes its global reach in addition to its worldwide footprint.
Consistency & Innovation
The
Coca-Cola brand development strategy combines tradition with diversification to
preserve its familiar identity during its actions towards progress. The
red-and-white branding stands firm while Coca-Cola adds new drinks and Zero
Sugar along with seasonal designs as part of its continued focus on consumer
market trends.
