This was done by customers using social media such as Twitter and Facebook, this worked because the customers would post images and videos of their name in the coke bottle to using the social network. This was a success because a lot of people had basically advertised the product for the company by sharing images on the internet for other people to see and get attracted to it. The third promotional objective the company wanted people to not only consume the product but also love it as a brand. This done by using types of media such as pop up personalisation booths, which allowed people to customize their own coca cola bottles by putting their own name on it and other features. This was done on the internet where people had access to do so, also when the customers were done consuming the product they will be able to keep it and using as decorations or the personal use in the future.

They can do somehow a better job in making sound investments and control the marketing with their products. I see that there were some challenges from some years especially when PepsiCo and Coco-Cola were at a war to compete each other with their businesses. Coca-Cola and PepsiCo are a few years apart, but both of them are well known and have such popularity with people drinking their sodas. Coca-Cola has been trying to surpass PepsiCo in their annual sales; however, from review, PepsiCo somehow has the highest number in their annual sales than Coca-Cola. PepsiCo has shown the best current ratio and is able to pay off their debts, which Coca-Cola does not have that and is struggling to pay off their debts.
Cokes products are currently at their mature stage. After years of development and research, each drink has been successfully stable. For example, Glaceau Vitamin Water is a part of the Coca Cola brand it is a product that has thrived in the market since distributed. Vitamin Water is a low to zero calorie flavored water, the taste is enhanced with natural and or artificial sweeteners. The advertising of this product alone was the reason for the great sales of the drink.
The assorted ways in which a business communicates with the customers effectively to satisfy them is known as the 'Promotional mix'.

It shows them drinking the Pepsi which makes it tempting for customers to buy the product.
