Well i couldn't limit Coca Colas' Brand Marketing strategy within the smart rewarding and Dumb Discounts especially lately, as since Jan.2014 as they start moving from "Creative Excellence" to "Content Excellence" in order to insure that the content comunicates your message that is congruent with your mission and values.

actually i would never call myself a marketing guru but my vission to the trend this year i can see they are completely right due to many aspects it will look Contradictory at first but trust me my friend it is related

1- Global Worming

2- Current growth rate

3- Current Investment capabilities

4- Current Political Alliances

accordingly i am promoting Food products and raw materials as my studies drove me to.
