Understanding The Industry and External Pressures

Title Needed12Regulators, health professionals and industry leaders have become more focused on calories from beverages and processed foods.Obesity Influences the DialogueConversations and content about nutrition, health and food products are amplified through the food community, creating an echo chamber. Consumers are passionate about their food choices and about the companies they buy from The Rise of the Corp-sumer

Social Media is Mainstream Media

Big Corn Corp

Title Needed13Old paradigm of food issues being limited to developed markets and by geographic boundaries has changed.From obesity to food ingredients, sustainability to food safety, food security to commodities pricing, food issues dominate our global and local food dialogues, and shape the way companies and industries enter new markets and do business in those markets. Creating a unique presence on the niche social networks that are important to key audiences helps build credibility and trust.

Global Thinking and Doing is a Must

A New Issue Import/Export Dynamic

User Networks to CreateSocial Currency

How Others In the Industry Are Reacting to the Landscape14From Candy to Innovation: With the worlds cocoa supply at risk, concentrated primarily in West Africa and susceptible to disease, and stakeholders calling for support of impoverished cocoa farmers, Mars decided to take action. In mapping the cocoa genome, Mars was seen as a leader, bringing solutions to a delicate agricultural and economic problem. Thinking Local: In the wake of a series of crises over the sourcing and ingredients of products sold in its restaurants, Yum! launched a global program that tracked and anticipated food and nutrition-related issues and influencers, leading to many of its brands announcing reformulated products based on unique market demands around the world. More than Just Coffee: While suffering declining financial returns and an increasingly competitive market, Starbucks heralded the return of CEO Howard Schultz and highlighted its deep bench of talented executives by partnering its thought leaders with select stakeholders in a series of global conversations, securing the companys corporate reputation as a leader in not just coffee, but in responsible capitalism, corporate citizenship and sustainability.Healthy Food Initiative: After successfully demonstrating that sustainable products should not and do not need to cost more for its customers, Walmart brought those same principles to healthy foods. Declaring that no family should ever have to make a choice between foods they can afford and foods that are good for them, Walmart announced a program with Michelle Obamas Lets Move! that includes working with manufacturers to reformulate packaged goods, creating its own healthy foods seal, and lowering prices on fruits and vegetables. .

The Research-led Mapping ProcessTo facilitate effective engagement over the long-term, we take a structured approach to mapping stakeholders and design communications that drive engagement and behavior.

The Research-led Mapping Process

While PepsiCo has clear strategic vision and initially-identified stakeholders, a research-driven approach will ensure we know precisely who needs to hear what and how.

The objectives developed in this stage will operationalize PepsiCos strategic goals:

Ability to InfluenceLevel of EngagementThe resulting stakeholder map provides a holistic view of your messaging landscape, along with strategic and tactical insights.

Certain loud voices may be unmovable, and require development of credible surrogates more likely to support PepsiCo while we identify the key advocates we need to continue to engage.

The Research-led Mapping Process

At the top of the pyramid, special strategies are often required.

Focusing on the issue of most interest to the individual is both possible and critical.

Whether due to beliefs, position or role, some can be intractable and immovable, requiring development of other equally credible individuals to articulate your view.Engagement & Influence

Digital Stakeholder Identification and Mapping

By mapping digital stakeholders, PepsiCo can identify online personalities who have the potential to become vocal online ambassadors for the companys initiatives and designate an approach for activating them.

Amplifying Messages Throughout the Food Community

Online conversation shapes media coverage, government action and consumer opinion ultimately impacting a companys bottom line. Conversations about the business and social impacts of food are shared and reverberate amongst a tight-knit group of stakeholders who are deeply connected to PepsiCo and its competitors, providing the opportunity to reach broad audiences by targeting a few key digital influencers.

Identifying Short-term Hotspots

A multi-stakeholder world means opinions are formed across diverse channels, a debate can start anywhere and new influencers can rise to prominence each day. Navigating the complexity and engaging stakeholders in meaningful ways is critical to success, but PepsiCo must first start with the potential allies and influencers who are the most vocal, credible and trusted sources of information. FTI will immediately leverage its global heat-mapping tool to identify and chart a course for engaging prime stakeholders early, securing initial wins that will help PepsiCo establish broader relationships in key communities.
