Many years ago, Tesco Polska did a study on the impact of placing a standard product (Tesco brand soap) at a standard price in the promotional area. It turned out that sales increased because customers often work on the so-called auto-pilot, or patterns fixed at the subconscious level "products in this place, are always at promotional prices".
19/06/2018, the absolute peak of Polish fans engagement and two different approaches of beverage companies at the level of shopper communication. Coca Cola has been consistently building it around the World Championships for over 1.5 months, recently adding pallet displays to TV and game consoles and very extensive, backlight POS materials. Meanwhile, Pepsi, after a very big "football offensive" just before the Championships, came back to promote a new variant of "Pepsi lime". Of course, we're talking about what the shopper sees. The reason for this may be: a conscious marketing decision or the prosaic depletion of "football" POS materials after an intense campaign in May. From the marketing pespective, Pepsi won the qualifiers, and Coca Cola, consistently spreading the "football" accents for the action lasting two months, became the "Master" of the finals.
