ANA Brand Activation Shopper Marketing @ Coca Cola (Members Only Conference)

This event is over.

Today, more than ever, the customer journey to purchase has more options than ever – including e-com, mobile and even via text. The battlegrounds of commerce, regardless of channel or product category, are more deeply rooted in the experience – in store or digitally – to make the journey easier to navigate. Accordingly, the landscape is changing in shopper / retail marketing from “just” creative activations to transformative customer activations and experiences – and the results are increased customer acquisition and retention.

Hosted by Coca Cola, this Members-Only Conference features sessions from leading marketers and thought leaders who will share case studies and best practices on how they leveraged shopper and retail marketing innovation to surprise and delight their shoppers, differentiate their shopping experiences, and improve ROI. You will also have fantastic opportunities to connect and learn from other interested members of the marketing community at this event.

HOW COCA-COLA, HERSHEY'S AND MONDELEZ ADDED NEW FLAVOR TO MARCH MADNESS AT KROGER

Long-time NCAA March Madness sponsor, The Coca-Cola Company, has since 2003 been a major sponsor in this annual 3-week tournament affectionately known as "March Madness." Coca-Cola has long been a pioneer in bringing this sponsorship property to life both in retail and on-site and in 2003, actually created, with MELT, "March Madness Music Festival," which is now a three-day music festival attended by more than 100,000 fans during The Final 4 held annually during the first weekend of April. Retail activation surrounding this property has always been robust, but with The Coca-Cola Company deciding to make a strategic shift to marketing "Coke with Food," TCCC and MELT decided to try something new and different, hence, "The Taste of The Tournament" was born in 2017. Hear in greater detail about how this sponsorship and retail activation changed the game for the shopper experience.
