Coca-Cola needed an integrated brand storytelling agency and founding content partner to shape editorial strategy and execute content production highlighting their sustainability and community efforts.

The challenge

As one of the world’s most recognisable brands, Coca-Cola takes its responsibilities to community seriously. It needed a platform on which it could develop owned stories, in order to showcase its sustainability and community actions.

Following the 2012 launch of the brand’s owned-media site, Coca-Cola Journey, the company needed an integrated brand storytelling agency and founding content partner in Asia-Pacific, in order to push the boundaries of brand storytelling as the world then knew it.

The solution

ImpactInstitute consulted, created and executed complex editorial strategy, involving content creation, multi-channel distribution and cross-functional team communication on a global scale. We handcrafted an integrated content marketing service, leveraging common cultural values across Australia, New Zealand and other Asia Pacific markets, while maintaining a focus on editorial quality and unassailable accuracy.

From 2019-2022 ImpactInstitute managed complex stakeholder sets during a global website rebuild and rebrand, including regional agency coordination, sustainability messaging and editorial strategy. During this period we worked on a rebranding the Coca-Cola Australia Foundation, including a brand book, logo refresh and messaging, along with in-market content execution.
