A pharmacist had an idea.
He mixed syrup with sparkling water…
And accidentally invented the most famous soda on the planet.
That day, John Pemberton sold the first cup of Coca-Cola.
He had no idea he was serving the embryo of the biggest branding case in human history.
📈 From medicinal tonic to global pop icon:
Coca-Cola didn’t just quench thirsts — it:
✅ Laid the foundations of emotional marketing.
✅ Shaped modern advertising with jingles, mascots, and design.
✅ Painted Santa Claus red.
✅ And became one of the first major cultural products of symbolic capitalism.
💡 And what does this have to do with digital creative economy?
ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING.

🎯 Moral of the story:
If even the formula for a syrup became an empire of influence…
