Coca-Cola launches its global advertising campaign "Taste The Feeling," which was unveiled for the first time yesterday at a press conference in Paris.
Launch in Poland
The latest TTH campaign will launch in Poland on January 21, 2016, with the first of ten created commercials titled "Motyw przewodni" introducing it to the market.
Urszula Szymczyk, brand manager at Coca-Cola Poland Services, commented on the campaign:
Taste the Feeling will be an exceptional campaign. We want every Pole to see and feel what it truly is. The narrative and life situations used in this campaign have been presented to resonate with consumers worldwide.
Outdoor and social media
The campaign extends beyond TV commercials—complemented by an outdoor initiative revealed at the start of February. The main goal is to promote Coca-Cola’s fresh image. The campaign will feature people in common, daily life situations that become better after drinking a cold beverage. Billboards will appear in major Polish cities and popular winter holiday destinations.
To reach all age groups, the campaign will also be present on popular social media platforms and online media.

BTL — Below The Line / direct and activating communication. Marketing activities targeted specifically at the customer, such as promotions, events, sampling, POS materials, email marketing, activations, and loyalty programs. The boundaries between ATL and BTL are often blurred today.
Coca-Cola's "Taste The Feeling" campaign launches in Poland
Why it matters: Precisely reaches the moment when purchase decisions are made: promotions in stores, events, mailings to customer databases. Effects are visible faster and easier to measure than with mass campaigns.
When to use: For promotions, sampling, events, loyalty programs, and communication with customer lists.
Risk of ignoring: Pure reach effect does not close the sale—without point-of-sale activation and direct contact, many interested consumers will not make the purchase step.
Social Media — Social platforms allowing users to create, publish, comment on, and share content, as well as build communities. For brands, they serve as organic, promotional, customer service, and analytical channels.
Why it matters: Brings reach, dialogue, and sales into one place: the brand speaks, listens, and responds where audiences spend their time. Also serves as customer service and the first front in a crisis.
When to use: Ongoing: organic content, paid campaigns, question handling, sentiment monitoring, and collaborations with creators.
Risk of ignoring: Absence in social communities gives narrative control to others—people still talk about the brand, just without its voice.
