When it comes to keyword research, it’s easy to fall into the trap of thinking that tools will do the job of brains. Let’s clear that out from the outset: they won’t. Tools are only as good as their handlers. Give a spanner to a monkey, it’ll find ingenious ways to use it. Give the same spanner to a dog and it goes from tool to toy. Use tools wisely.

Simon Lowden, chief marketing officer at PepsiCo North America, told USA Today the Amazon rollout "lets PepsiCo use a high-profile channel to gauge initial response. 

It also allows the product to get some scale and awareness before it goes into the bottler system."

A Pepsi spokesman further told Reuters the decision follows online successes for Pepsi's other products. Starbucks Double Shot Light, sold through a joint venture with Starbucks, is Pepsi's top-selling online item year-to-date.
