most memorable campaigns of the brand, featuring celebrity endorsers such as ShahRukh Khan among others. The focus, as is clearly evident, is on the product with the
youth as its target segment.

leverage it. Instead of moving on to a complete emotional appeal platform, the companydecided on a product based promotion campaign. Though there is still some amount ofemotional appeal to its campaigns, the principal focus is on the product - it being apreferred thirst quencher.
7 UPIn its early days, 7 UP inherited the global Fido-Dido campaign for promotion in India as
well. However, with changing times and a contextual difference in India, a much morefocused campaign was required. This led to the Keep It Cool campaign, which wastargeted primarily at the youth and the teenager segment. Hence the appeal was at amore subtle, emotional level, which was meant to convey a potential lifestyle statement.The recent campaign of Bheja Fry essentially leverages on the same emotional appeal
where the Keep It Coolcampaign has been somewhat tweaked to have a local appeal.
Mountain DewMountain Dew is the latest entrant in the product portfolio. This product too has theappeal of being the drink of a daredevil or the No Fear personality. The campaignslaunched include Do the Dew and DarrKe Aagey Jeet Hai. The initial campaign wasunclear in terms of its appeal and the target segment, as a result of which the brandsuffered some jolts in the beginning. However, the latest campaign captures the No Fearor the Macho Man image. In this sense, the brand directly competes with Thums Up fromthe Coca Cola Stable
