Though the old slogan is being muted, things have been going better with Coke. Profits and sales have risen steadily to $110 million earned on $1.2 billion in revenues last year. True, the company could have been more nimble in shifting to meet new buying trends: its products account for an estimated 41% of the U.S. soft-drink market, but the company's Tab ranks only third in the market for diet colas. On the other hand, Coke has diversified quite successfully in recent years, notably with its big-selling Fresca. Now the company hopes to put still more life into sales through the image and logo changeover, which is expected to be well on its way by the peak of next summer's soft-drinking season.
