Last week I attended Celebrating Women in the Research Industry, an evening co-hosted by ESOMAR and Women in Research (WiRe), organised by Patricia Dominguez (Inciter and UK ESOMAR Representative).
Britain’s favourite logo is Coca-Cola’s, according to a new poll. The iconic red and white symbol was first revealed in the late 1800s and has remained largely unchanged ever since.
It’s so popular the logo can commonly be found on fashionable clothing items, homeware and other desirables - while vintage items featuring the logo can sell for thousands of pounds. Second spot was secured by US fast-food chain, McDonald’s - ahead of Disney’s Mickey Mouse silhouette logo in third and Cadbury’s logo in fourth.

A statement made last month by the CEO of Coca-Cola, Muhter Kent, indicated that the company will be shifting focus to the quality of its marketing messages rather than the volume of campaigns it rolls out.
In the past, the drinks behemoth has typically disseminated a pretty persistent onslaught of marketing messages, but has now made the decision to change tack in order to “enhance customer relations, build stronger brands and improve the quality of the marketing we are carrying out.”
