over Pepsi! That is the emotional power of a brand. The Coca-Cola brand has the power to actually change an individual's taste!
Coca-cola is the no.1 brand in the world.
The first shape that was registered is the coca cola bottle

brand value Make sure you can deliver Integrate brand communications Be consistent … across everything Protect where you can !!!
Now that you have solid messaging, it’s time to create.
Consistency is the #1 rule Repetition, repetition, repetition Did you know it takes 7-9 times of being
exposed to your company name for a potential client to remember it?
We get exposed to over 4000 messages a day. How can you break through that clutter?
