of card board and Big

Ball Game:
A big (2 m ht x 0.5 m radius) Pepsi bottle, on the top, a small hole of radius 4 cm
would be made
Participants would be asked to throw a rubber ball inside the bottle through the
top hole from a distance of 10 m
A minimum of one bounce is mandatory before it enters into the bottle
Successful participants will get free ticket for any of the world cup matches and
free 500 ml Pepsi on the spot
We think this event would be a crowd puller and increase the brand awareness
and emotional involvement with the Pepsi brand
5. Malls and Road Shows
Pepsi Bottle On cars through city roads :
4 wheeler vehicles which are modified in the shape of cricket Bat and Ball
These vehicles would move around the city, where the bat would chase the ball
These Bat and Ball vehicles would carry the Pepsi Logo
Such a campaign will surely create a buzz among the citizens and make them aware of
Pepsi’s involvement in the World Cup
Such a concept is innovative and highly cost-effective way to create visibility
Poster/Signature Campaigns:
Poster and signature campaigns have a great appeal among fans and cricket lovers
These campaign would be held at places of high footfall and traffic e.g. Malls, Stations
Moreover, the Signatures would be done on a Pepsi + World cup themed cloth
