Coca-Cola pulls plug on Dasani

Coca-Cola pulls plug on Dasani….

"COCA-COLA is facing new humiliation and losses of at least £40 million after being forced to postpone the introduction of Dasani, its "pure, still water", in Europe. Company chiefs have accepted that Dasani as a brand is so vilified in Britain after it was exposed as a purified version of Sidcup tap water that the product stood no chance of early success on the Continent."

Now there’s an idea. Bottle up tap water. Put it in a flash bottle. Trendy label. Edgy name then sell it. Except for one thing – people don’t buy the inauthentic anymore. However flash the bottle. Trendy the label. Edgy the name – the product has got to be real.

When the world looks at the church what do we want it to see? The bottle, label and name or the product?
