How Coca Cola’s Point of Purchase Promotion Stimulate Impulse Buys

1.Play With Colors – Red dominates the whole display which is hard to miss. Not only does it remind shoppers of the brand, but it also sparks Christmas warmth.

2. Use Bespoke POS displays – Coca Cola’s custom pop display juts out from the shelf so it is easily noticeable. What is unique with this display is that it has a compartment that holds a can. In a way, it serves as a glorifier that allows the can to stand out. Doing so helped distinguish their products from the rest. It certainly drew our attention away from competitor brands and into their display.
