SUMMARY
With Pepsi significantly losing its fizz the past few years, our task was to infuse it with renewed cultural meaning. By unearthing an unknown truth about Pepsi and an often overlooked; mindset that unified the brand's diverse audiences, we formulated a deceivingly simple yet powerful strategic idea --- REFRESH. Instead of quenching thirst, we used 'Refresh' to establish that Pepsi was an icon of positive energy. The resulting campaign has not only restored the clarity and power of Pepsi's brand voice, it has also jumpstarted Pepsi's cultural and retail momentum.
