Nominations from floor
5. NIke
4. Anheiser Bush - Bud
3. Coca- Cola
2. McDonalds
1. Proctor & Gamble
Ask class to name P&G brands
Next page shows their brands
Here are some
Here are some more
We do not know them because of company, but we know their brands’
They use multiple branding strategy {BOARD}
contrast with
Family Branding Stratgy
e.g., Nike, Cambells
Thats why we all know the brand Nike, but many do not know P&G
#1 P&G
First P&G ad on Superbowl --{show ad} have not done it since -- too expensive $3M
Why are they on the list?
$60B sales
#1 national advertiser
birth of soap operas
(2) Pioneered Brand Management Concept
single person responsible for every aspect of brand’
now commonly used by many firms
(3) First big mover on Internet
(4) Strong commitment to consumer research
Not all positive, got in trouble during mid to late 90s
advertising eroded
other companies took the lead
let innovation process slide
will not work -- cant just let brands go through product life cycle without having new innovations to take their place
But got the message and started innovating again
spin brush
created a new product category
bought from entrepreneur and put crest label on it
now $5 Billion dollar product
Lots of other new products
white strips
Swiffer
They turned things around
Morale of story -- even if you are on top, you can not just sit back. it is easy to fall
#2 McDondald’s
How many of you have ever been in a McDonalds?
Get kids early with happy meals
Targets tweens
can go with friends
Helps to build lifetime loyalty
transformational advertising
get consumers to engage in ad so that it transforms experience of using brand
not just a cheap fast food lunch
advertising makes it more than that -- transforms it into something bigger
Advertising research
lots of effort to make sure ads are appealing to audience
Stumbled in 1980s!
What went wrong
social trends
fat content
supersize me movie
lots of price promotion
bad weapon to use
lazy way to compete
easy for competitor to copy
franchisees could not make money -- many closed
Last successful innovation for a long time was in ‘83 - Mcnuggets
Started lagging in cleanliness and speed of delivery (service levels fell)
CEO died from heart attack
What have they done since to catch up?
Hamburger U (to correct service issues)
WiFi
Adult menu items
phased out supersize
launched new ad campaign {show ad}
Are you loving it?
targets youthful market (18-24)
I don;t care for it, but it is not aimed at me, I do not have to
more recently introduced premium coffee (very successful -- partly due to recession)
added smoothies
adding these drinks and wifi to restaurants invites people to stay longer
They are in much better shape now
They have made a comeback but suffered
lost touch with environment
not as commited to service
Like P&G, was in a great position but suffered when they became complacent
Back on track now
Coca Cola and Anheiseur Bush -- talk about together since interesting parallels
Both successful for a long time
carbonated beverages
market leaders by a wide margin
Coca Cola has largest brand equity of any brand in world!
{board} Brand Equity = Value of firm - value of all stock, patents, equipment (i.e., all tangible assets).
60% of value of firm comes from non tangibles
Very powerful, a result of years of positive associations with brand in advertising
Brain research shows Pepsi causes greater activation of pleasure sensors in brain
- i.e., people like the taste of Pepsi better
Coke activates different areas of brain
memory
imagery over time
family
2 most highly rated commercials of all time are from Coke
Coke World --[Show AD}
captured a lot of people’s attention
fit in with the psyche of so many americans at the time
was redone with different lyrics -- made it to top 40
built lots of positive associations (images) with brand
Mean Joe Green [Show AD}
Giant linebacker
70s
rugged image but captured essence of what Coke is about
These ads
warm your heart
this type of ad is what keeps Coke so near and dear to people’s hearts
But like P&G and McDonalds have had some missteps
1985 - New Coke vs. old cole
started to loose way after that
cut back on ads figuring they were powerful
ads lost effectiveness over next 20 years
Generations Ad [Show AD}
Lots of flops since then
80% of sales from International Market
own fountain sales in us but loosing in pkg sales
carbonated soft drinks on decline all together - fruit juices, sport drinks on the rise
coke has the most eggs in the carb. bev market
Poweraid took a long time to come to market
recently purchased Vitamin Water
kind of late
so Coke is struggling
Budweiser -- Happier story
On top of its market and never really been challenged
1950s - first nationwide brewer in US
1957 - top market share
Over 50% market share of domestic beer market
How have they done this?
Creative ads over a long period of time
{show ad} Waz and Waz II
{show ad} Genius
They have had a whole series of very effective and entertaining ads
Why couldn’t Coke do this? These ads say nothing about beer. They just build positive associations with the product.
Bud has done it, Cole has floundered!
Coke has not been able to find their way back to the creativity they had in the 70s
Neither brand needs to explain what the product does. People know about the product! The brands just need to build positive associations!
Marketing may seem easy, common sense! But even big companies can mess it up as we say in our previous lecture.
This definition focuses on
creation
deliver
exchange
that benefits organization itself as well as customer
The unique combination of benefits received by targeted buyers that includes quality, {is a high quality product -- does what it should do- Toro lawn mower starts when you pull the cord}
price, {fair price} convenience {convenient to get} on-time delivery and both before-sale and after-sale service. {all of these things wrapped up together is what we call value}.
{ask class} How many prefer Target to Walmart?
Even though better price at Walmart - many people get better value at Target
Of those how many still shop at Walmart sometimes?
even those that like Target better, some still get better value from Walmart (later hours, more selection, better prices)
The importance of these factors varies across consumers.
There are 4 major types of utility that consumer look for. Time, place form and possession.
Different consumers assign different amounts of importance to these, so not everyone is looking for the same thing. Lets look at examples of all 4 types of utility
Time -- getting the product when you want it
Wal Mart open 24 hours
ATM
Speed of delivery -- order delivery time
Fed X
Madden Football Game -- new one each year
Over 50% of sales for the entire year come the first week it is on the shelves
If you are a retailer, you better have it the first week, or you will lost out.
Fast Food SAles
1970 $6B
2000 $110B
2013 $191B
more than what we spend on higher education, new cards, movies and magazines combined!
people want it fast
Having the product available WHERE you want it
McDonalds has lots more outlets than it competition -- more likely to be convenient than BK
Why do people pay more for Beer at a hockey game then at the grocery store?
They value it more there then they do at other places
{Board} Atmospherics
atmosphere
Actual form the products is in
Fruit - raw or juice
Music Tape - ipad - about drawn to size -- the form evolved over time to be more reliable, and easier to carry
Steps to help the consumer possess the product sooner rather than later
Credit - can have now and pay later
Mortage - can live in house 30 years before we finish paying for it.
Social Danger -- If credit is too easy people get in over their heads. -- We have seen a lot of this in the last few years. So the lenders needed to be reigned in!
Marketing is all about exchange
--> goods (barter), money or credit -->
{Board} Buyer Seller
<-- product, idea. service <--
But how can both be better off after the trade??
Well that comes from an idea from economics called diminishing marginal utility. --> next slide
Go through exercise 6 hb trade for 1 coke
Marketers want consumer to feel good after the trade
They want the consumer to get a good value
How do they do this??
By the use of the marketing mix
LEts take a look at a scene from the Godfather to see what we can learn
Metaphor developed in 1920 by Neil Borden
His company made cake mix. And just like a cake mix you need to have the right
mix of these things to do marketing in an ideal way
The 4 p’s represent the 4 key ares that marketers control.
Let take a look at some of the dimensions of this in the next slide
A marketing program creates a marketing mix that is well integrated.
E.G. if you make a high quality product, the price, promotion and distribution ought to reflect that.
Does not make sense to charge a low price for high quality product.
Here is an example from Rollerblades for a product designed for people of various skill levels primarily wanting skates for fun and exercise.
Not the most expensive, or the cheapest
features in magazines associated with fitness
fairly widespread distribution -- does not have to be sold only by highly specialized stores
The mix fits together.
A term we use a lot -- Market Share
Define
Example 1.9B / 6.1B = 31.5% (Gen. Mills).
This is a key indicator of the successfulness of a marketing program.
Note this is a fairly concentrated market, 98% of market share contained held by 10 firms, when there are hundreds of companies making cereall
contrast with a fragmented market which would have the market share spread out among a greater proportion of the companies.
The Marketing Managers role is outlined in this diagram
Centermost is the consumer
must start by understanding who the consumer is
what he is looking for, etc..
The job is to set up the 4 p’s based on our knowledge of the consumer’’
But we do not do this in a vacuum. The environmental forces serve as a constraint on the way we design marketing mix
eg if we make a product similar in quality to out competitor, we cannot charge a higher price and be successful
If social factors, like greater health consciousness causes consumers to cut back on fast food, McDonalds must react with new menu items to mirror the changing trends
If the new technology like touch pads are the way of the future, it makes sense for us to explore how to include it in our products
Iphone was really the start of it -- technology got better, consumers like it since it mimics normal human motions. and now we have all types of devices using this technology.
if the economy is soft (as we have seen in the recent recession) then it may not make sense to come out with lots of new refrigerators (as consumers curtail durable purchases in a sour economy).
So the goal is to set those controllable factors, but we cannot do it in a vacuum.
we need to understand the consumer
and the environment
And come up with a marketing mix that makes sense.
As part of coming up with a marketing mix, we practice STP marking-
segmentation, targeting and positioning are 3 interrelated concepts that make up the hallmark of marketing strategy
lets start with segmentation <Next Slide>
Segmentation
We start by looking at the consumer market
<click to bring in big picture>
In the early days we tended to think of the marketplace as homogenious
Back in the 1920s
Henry Ford - Model T - any color you want as long as it was black
treated everyone the same this does not work today
From a far enough distance awat, all consumers look the same. So that was the way marketing was handled back then.
Treat everyone the same.
On closer inspection though...
<click to bring in close up pictures>
...we see that not all consumers are the same.
There are lots of different types of consumers out there.
We need to understand
who these consumers are
what they want (types of products, features)
where you can find them to communicate with them (tv, magazines, newspapers, webpages)
For example, if we a music label and we handled classic rock and hip hop would the customers be the same for both types of music?
old young
liberal conservative
white black
urban suburban
rich poor
etc......
To do learn about these differences we need marketing research
What do we do with that knowledge?
<click to remove pictures>
Targeting
We create different types of products for different types of consumers
We only serve some of the consumers, not all of them.
We find those consumer in different places
tv shows
radio shows
magazines
newspapers
magazines
Positioning
refers to how we communicate with the customer
how we battle for the minds and attention of our consumers
what message we tell them
how we want them to perceive our product
Apple imac -- easier to use than Windows based PC
Here is an example of two cameras from the same company
They appeal to very different types of consumers
The entire marketing mix is different for the two types of cameras
reflecting the segmentation that was done by Canon
Finally, the last topic in this introduction is a discussion of the evolution of schools of thought about running a business.
In early days of industrial revolution -- major focus of firm was production
<CLICK TO BRING UP FORD PICTURE>
learn how to produce products as efficiently as possible
focus is on making stuff
<CLICK TO REMOVE PICTURE>
that works as long as demand > supply
our focus is INWARD -- on our ability to produce.
We don’t worry so much about selling -- the product sells itself
companies not so efficient at making products yet so demand for them outstrips supply
This orientation held up until about the 1920s when production techniques improved and supply started to outstrip demand
Then came the sales era
Now we got a lot of stuff in inventory, we need to figure out how to sell it
But focus is really still inward as it is really the excess inventory that is causing us to put effort into selling
Then in the 1950s, the marketing concept era began
Marketing Concept -- satisfy customer needs and wants and make a profit
major change in focus, the focus becomes the consumer and satisfying their needs
we start with what the consumer wants and try to make it
vs. make what we want then try to sell it
<Click for marketing research picture>
Marketing Research is key to doing this.
identify consumer needs ---> develop product --> then sell
“rather than making what we always make and then trying to sell it, find out what consumer wants and try to make it”
<Click to remove marketing research picture>
Now the focus is outward not inward
The marketing concept era held out until the 1990s but was really extended then by the customer era.
The major difference, prior to the 1990s it was really just the marketing department that was focused outward
In the 90s that was extended to the entire organization, not just the Mkt. Depts
