Coca-Cola launched its customized <\/b>bottle campaign in China<\/b><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Coca-Cola had launched its worldwide campaign<\/a> of customized bottles in China, but with some local adaptations, demonstrating how to create an effective buzz in the Chinese environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today we propose to explain how Coca-Cola has successfully modified the initial plan of its customized bottles to launch the campaign in the Chinese market and secondly how to use Chinese social networks to create buzz about it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chinese consumers like customization<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

One interesting thing about the Chinese consumption tendency is the growing interest in customized aspects. In a society where the individual interest was reduced traditionally for the organization, consumers like this new opportunity. For a such customized product, Chinese consumers are ready to pay for it but on the other hand, are quite moderate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A re-demanding on customization<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Coca-Cola has understood very well such needs and has successfully modified its supply of customized bottles. While for instance, Coca-Cola has released a list of 250 names on customized bottles for the French market, the Chinese would have probably not been satisfied with so little customization. Coca-Cola has then proposed customization with some common description (i.e. \u767d\u5bcc\u7f8e Bai Fu Mei \u201cBeautiful girl\u201d) but also to write the name of the future owner. Of course, such customization has increased the cost of such customization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Buzz and Weibo<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In order to launch its campaign, Coca-Cola has successfully used Sina Weibo. By encouraging people to show pictures online of their bottles and their customization, it has created a buzz exponentially increasing the number of bottles sold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The bottles were charged 20 yuan during the 5 days period to launch the campaign.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After the 5 days period and having successfully gotten the campaign on, Coca-Cola has then moved the customized bottles to a lottery, with 360 bottles available per day with a partnership with Chinese search engine hao.360.cn and also with the online supermarket Jingdong \u4eac\u4e1c gives another chance to win the lottery with a purchase of a pack of 24 cans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can participate in the lottery and may win your customized bottle here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Obviously, this marketing campaign has been already a success, making the brand more famous on the web and increases potentially the loyalty of its customers who would rather not move to another brand of coke-soda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
