A recent article in the Wall Street Journal described how the next "Pepsi Generation"
likely will be drinking diet cola. Pepsi recently learned that one-third of teens were diet
soda drinkers and that teens start drinking diet soft drinks at a very early age. However,
Pepsi also acknowledged that a substantial portion of young people don't consider diet
sodas cool, particularly men. The chief marketing officer for Pepsi-Cola North America
was quoted as saying, "We are treating Diet Pepsi as the flagship brand. . . . It's a big
step for us." Indeed, this is a major break with the traditional soft-drink market, where
the sugar-sweetened version of Pepsi still dominates in market share. However, with
concerns of rising obesity and schools cutting back on sugar-sweetened drinks in
vending machines, soft-drink manufacturers, like Pepsi, are responding with increased
marketing of their diet soft drinks. As part of this new change in focus, Diet Pepsi will
be marketed as a hip, cool brand for everyone, including teenagers and baby boomers.
Meanwhile, the article stated that Pepsi is narrowing its sales pitch for regular
Pepsi-Cola to 'soda drinkers younger than 25, Latinos, African-Americans, and sports
fans."
By treating the diet soda market as relatively homogeneous, what marketing strategy is
Pepsi using?
