Pepsi has negligible reach towards consumers in the online department and needs to address this issue and possibly invest in other upcoming modes of communication such as mobile apps. Pepsi must invest in creating social and customization bonds with its customers. For example Pepsi can create an online/mobile application where the user can voice their views, suggest new flavors , play games with other users , scan QR codes to receive updates and offers , share new recipes or Pepsi can give promotion on its wrapper to promote its social media pages thus creating a social connection of Pepsi with its customers. Television is considered the most effective medium of advertisement/ campaigning thus most of the resources need to be utilized for this medium. Recent campaigns of Pepsi have been targeted towards the young generations which is the primary target of PepsiCo but it needs to address other segments as these are the segments which maintain high level of loyalty towards a company.
