Inside Coca-Cola’s Music-Powered Campaign
Billboard Business News
“From our perspective it was a logical choice to inspire people through music” said Coca-Cola Global Music Marketing Manager Umut ¨zaydinli in the beginning of a case study on Coca-Cola’s “pen Happiness” campaign at the Billboard and Adweek Music and Advertising Conference in New York. In an advertising climate with declining TV viewership and increasing time online and music consumption Coca-Cola looked to create a song that would be the central piece of an innovative global marketing strategy. To do this they tapped five artists; Gnarls Barkley’s Cee-Lo Patrick Stump from Fall ut Boy Brendon Urie from Panic at the Disco Travis McCoy from Gym Class Heroes and newcomer Janelle Monae to collaborate on a commissioned single. The track was produced by Polow Da Don and Butch Walker. Jonathan Daniel of Crush Music Media Management said the artistic collaboration was easy due to the mutual respect between all artists involved. He went on to cite working Coca-Cola’s trademarked five-note whistle into the track as the most difficult musical challenge for the group.

Freescale also displayed several smartbooks which with their 10-inch screens and full keyboards look a lot like netbooks but work somewhat differently. Since they’re built from mobile phone parts designed for power efficiency smartbooks should run much longer than netbooks on a single charge. Glen Burchers director of global marketing at Freescale said a smartbook with Freescale chips inside can run for eight hours on a three-cell battery much longer than comparable netbooks which can only last two or three hours with such a battery. Most netbooks are sold with a heavier six-cell battery and can run for around six hours before needing a recharge. Smartbooks from Pegatron another contract manufacturing spin-off from Asustek were on show at Freescale’s office. They will cost around US$199 each if they’re made for Wi-Fi wireless Internet access.

mnicom and WPP both started 1986. Sir Martin Sorrell had a vision to build a full-service global-marketing company to serve worldwide clients and in 1986 he acquired an already publicly listed company called Wire & Plastic Products. Having been the CF for Saatchi and Saatchi for a number of years he understood that advertising was being usurped.
