If someone handed you one of these a dark room, you would know exactly what it is. No it’s not the beginning of a dirty joke. I is the story on one of the strongest brands in the world.
Introduced in 1886, Coca-Cola has been marketing their product right for over 100 years.
From the signature shape of their trademarked bottle, graphics on their vending machines, merchandise at sporting events, to their television commercials, Coca-Cola has been careful that each consumer touch they make, has the same message.

What about me? I sell 800 swimming pools a year?
