To identify the opportunity and pricing potential we have several linked research paths in progress
7
Emotional Conjoint
Study
Pricing Study by
Channel / Occasion
Functional & Emotional
Benefits study
What Why
Measure consumer
preference for the package
and its differentiating
equities
• Preference vs other packages
by target consumer groups,
occasions and channels
• Develop customer selling story
Validate equities from first
study and determine the
package demand curve as
a function of price increments
• Provide data points for
customer selling story and
package strategy
• Understand pricing potential
across target consumer
groups, occasions and
channels
Assess market opportunity
in eating and drinking
channels across the broader
beverage category
• Data points for refining
opportunity assessment and
customer selling story
• Identify cross-category
opportunities to activate

Functional and emotional research
8
OBJECTIVE: Measure consumer preference for
the Aluminum Bottle and its differentiating
equities that are functional (feel, ease of
use, etc.) and emotional (cool, premium,
etc.) across six stimuli in North America
Emotionally, the Aluminum Bottle evokes
Cool/Hip, Unique, Fun, Fashionable/Stylish,
Happy, Exciting, Distinctive, Youthful,
Approachable, Authentic, Friendly,
Contemporary/Modern and Premium
Functionally, the Aluminum Bottle
communicates Expensive more than the brand,
indicating it may be worth a higher price.

Principles of Aluminum Bottle activation
What it IS
• Highest price per ounce
• Brands: Coca-Cola, Zero, Diet/Light, Sprite, Ginger ale
• Special
• Availability in limited (premium) channels/outlets
• Vehicle for graphic flexibility in high end channels
• Used for in-and-out promotions (4-6 weeks) If in upscale large store it must be min 6-pack
What it is NOT
• Never on deal to consumer
• Not comparable to existing
SKU’s
• Commoditized
• Not available everywhere,
especially not in ‘value’ and
large store outlets
• If in upscale grocery, never
on shelf in the beverage aisle
