Information System Benefits
Marketers realized how important technology was becoming for business.
Joined forces with IT department
Sales increased because of this collaboration
Slide14Struggles During Start Up
IT department felt neglected for their role in sales.
Coca Cola released social media ads, resulting in a need for IT department support.
Information Technology teams were created, and in charge of security, programming, and sustainability.
Slide15The Importance of Information Technology
Security plays a vital role in sales.
Without a layer of defense surrounding the social media websites, Coca Cola is vulnerable.
Internet threats become more aggressive as Coca Cola expands their web presence.
Slide16Role continued
With over one hundred million dollars used each year by Coca Cola, security becomes even more important.
Continuous monitoring of the Information Systems is required, and this is the role IT plays.
Slide17CIO: Ed Steinike
"The computer records all the data involved in every single pour. Each fountain knows when it’s running low on certain products. We are also using automated ordering in many Coca-
Cola Freestyle
locations, whereby the fountain can build its own orders for supplies and place them directly into the system. It would even optimize the order so that you pay the lowest possible delivered
cost”
This allows marketers to respond to customer purchases in a way that increases sales. Depending on which drinks sell best, they can create promotions for specific brands.
