Pepsi verde
Será que a Pepsi ficou com inveja da Coca-Cola azul e resolveu lançar um produto parecido?

Não é o caso, mas o projeto é igualmente interessante!

Falei há algum tempo sobre a Coca-Cola azul, um caso interessantíssimo de marketing da Coca-Cola.

Agora é a vez de falar da Pepsi verde, ou Pepsi Green. Ela foi lançada em janeiro deste ano na Tailândia (e só pode ser encontrada por lá) como parte do projeto Pepsi Colours, que já inclui a Pepsi Blue (imagem abaixo), a Pepsi White, a Pepsi Gold, entre outras cores.

A diferença da Pepsi verde é que não é apenas a embalagem que mudou de cor. O produto também mudou completamente. Ele deixou o preto de lado e se tornou um verde “água fluorescente”.

Não se sabe qual o sabor da nova bebida. Mesmo quem já bebeu diz não conseguir determinar o gosto. Alguns mencionam um leve sabor de Listerine – aquele enxaguatório bucal.

Com este produto voltado ao público “teen”, a empresa conseguiu um bom aumento nas vendas primeiro trimestre (3-5%). Ele foi lançado com base numa pesquisa que apontou que 93% dos jovens da Tailândia se preocupam com problemas ambientais. Não conseguimos, porém, identificar o que a bebida tem de “verde”, a não ser a cor.

Michael Jackson: Post Mortem
Não posso deixar passar em branco (sem trocadilhos) um acontecimento chocante como esse.

Michael Jackson, nascido em 29 de agosto de 1958, morreu (a causa ainda está sendo analisada, supostamente por uma parada cardíaca) no dia 25 de junho de 2009, deixando estarrecidos milhões de fãs ao redor do mundo.

Com uma grande turnê marcada para daqui a algumas semanas, o rei do pop deixa um legado musical incomparável.

A vida, marcada por sucessos e polêmicas, será lembrada para sempre.

Particularmente, me lembro de ter a infância marcada pelos sucessos de Michael Jackson. Os grandes shows, as maravilhosas performances nos palcos, os incríveis passos de dança únicos.

Vejam uma pequena amostra da performance do astro num de seus shows:

Aproveitem e revejam um dos vídeos mais famosos dele, o clipe da música Thriller:

Que Michael seja lembrado por seu grande talento e pela bela herança musical que nos deixa!
