- Pepsi The Pepsi Corporation faced a crisis in 1993 which started with claims of syringes being found in cans of diet Pepsi. Pepsi urged stores not to remove the product from shelves while it had the cans and the situation investigated. This led to an arrest, which Pepsi made public and then followed with their first video news release, showing the production process to demonstrate that such tampering was impossible within their factories. A second video news release displayed the man arrested. A third video showed surveillance from a convenience store where a woman was caught inserting a syringe into a can. The company simultaneously publicly worked with the FDA during the crisis. This made public communications effective throughout the crisis. After the crisis had been resolved, the corporation ran a series of special campaigns designed to thank the public for standing by the corporation, along with coupons for further compensation.

- During the COVID-19 pandemic, wearing a face mask is necessary to reduce the risk of infection. This new norm also affected Jay who had just moved to Kota Kinabalu, Sabah last year. On the other hand, Jay’s ex-girlfriend, Chloe, is a businesswoman and an entrepreneur selling products through Facebook related to COVID-19 protection. While stalking Chloe’s Facebook, Jay saw Chloe’s posts with a simple caption “Face masks for sale. I am always available to answer any questions”. Jay feels that this is his opportunity to reconnect with Chloe and rekindle the warmth of their previous 12 years of a love affair. Jay, therefore, sent messages via WhatsApp to the number stated on Chloe’s Facebook. Jay showed interest in purchasing Chloe’s face masks for fear that she would not entertain him. Jay introduced himself but did not mention personal-related matters. Instead, he asked how he could make the purchase, the delivery and price, among other things. When Chloe responded to his messages…arrow_forwardGive typed explanation Kawal, a young mother with three small children, had worked at the counter of a Tim Hortons store for three years. One day, the manager observed Kawal giving a Timbit donut to a crying child who came into the store with their parents. When the manager of the store confronted Kawal about giving a donut away for free, Kawal immediately admitted to giving the donut away to the customer without paying for it. She was aware that this was against the employer’s policy, but she had been busy at the time and did not go to her purse to get the $1.50 to pay for the donut at that time. Also, knowing that day-old donuts are given away to small children in the store regularly, she felt this would be acceptable. Kawal expected to get a warning at most and was shocked when her manager terminated her employment for cause. Sarah filed a wrongful dismissal case. (PLEASE NOTE: I am not looking for your opinion.

Before setting up security at the academy, the contingent, in full uniform, went to a local Denny’s restaurant for breakfast. The group included six African American agents who sat at a table together, and an African American supervisor who, with the white agents, sat at other tables. After all the agents had ordered, the six black agents realized that the white agents and their supervisor had been served while they had not. Agent Robin Thompson went to ask the waitress about the order, and she said it was on its way. He then asked to talk with the manager and was told that the manager was on the phone. (White agents seated at other tables later reported that the waitress rolled her eyes after turning to leave the black agents’ table.)…arrow_forward
- In February 2005, Philip Morris Tobacco Company, one of the world’s leading marketers of tobacco products including cigarettes began a promotion in the USA that included sending direct mails to teens and young adults on their birthdays. The campaign, titled “Drinks on Us,” included a birthday greeting card as well as a set of drink coasters on which several recipes were printed for making many different concoctions of alcoholic beverages. The drink recipes were mixed drinks of fairly high alcoholic content and included many well-known brands such as Jack Daniels, Johnny Walker, Smirnoff and Finlandia Vodka. With the recipe on one side of the coaster, the flip side included a tag line switch phrases such as “Go ‘till Daybreak,” and Make Sure You’re Sitting.” From the start, the promotion was fraught with problems, coming under attack from a range of interest groups.
