BMW is a German automaker known for luxury vehicles. It started in 1916 making aircraft engines and now owns brands like Mini and Rolls-Royce.

BMW faces competition globally but maintains a strong brand image through high quality vehicles.
What Mercedes could do to target the middle class customer....Fahad Ali
Mercedes is renowned for quality but is out of reach for most customers. To address the mass market without compromising its elite image, Mercedes could collaborate with Toyota to produce affordable, high-quality vehicles under a new brand name like "Toyota MRS" or "Toyota & Mercedes". This would allow Mercedes to attract more medium-income customers while keeping its existing luxury customers satisfied with their high-end models. The new brand could leverage Toyota's experience in affordable manufacturing and Mercedes' reputation for quality and comfort to appeal to price-conscious customers seeking better quality.
BMW is a German luxury automaker founded in 1917. It moved some production to Spartanburg, South Carolina in the US in 1992. Key reasons for moving production outside Germany included access to cheaper labor, proximity to suppliers and customers for lower supply chain costs, and business-friendly policies in South Carolina. BMW evaluated over 10 locations based on these factors before choosing Spartanburg. The plant there employs 8,800 and was a $2.2 billion investment that strengthened BMW's global production network.

The managers achieve organizational objectives by getting work from
others and not performing in the tasks themselves.
Management is an art and science of getting work done through people.
It is the process of giving direction and controlling the various activities
of the people to achieve the objectives of an organization Management is a universal process in all organized, social and economic activities. Wherever
there is human activity there is management.
Management is a vital aspect of the economic life of man, which is an organized group activity. A
central directing and controlling agency is indispensable for a business concern. The productive
resources –material, labour, capital etc. are entrusted to the organizing skill, administrative ability
and enterprising initiative of the management. Thus, management provides leadership to a
business enterprise. Without able managers and effective managerial leadership the resources of
production remain merely resources and never become production. Management occupies such an
important place in the modern world that the welfare of the people and the destiny of the country
are very much influenced by it.

Management is a technique of extracting work from others in an integrated and co-ordinated

BMW
a name that defines
luxury since 1916

5. BMW owners around the world

A few real life
examples to show
why BMW is not
only a car, but a
testimony of one’s
success
9. BMW’s sales revenues slipped by around 4.7% when
recession hit the global economy in 2008-09 ; Vehicle
revenues by 10.4% while the automotive division was down by
10.3%, yet BMW remained the strongest contender of
producing world’s most premium vehicles without lowering
their price
10. What are the pros and cons to BMW’s
selective target marketing? What has the
firm done well over the years and where
could it improve?
11. BMW’s biggest strength lies in their loyal
well-to-do customer base
BMW’s straightforward ignorance of the
masses pose a great deal of threat to them
in terms of revenues with strong
competition from other automobile
industries
They have created a strong brand value for
themselves which makes their customers
believe that owning a BMW is a sign of
their lavish lifestyle and professional
success
12. BMW’s sales slipped during the worldwide
recession in 2008 and 2009. Is its segmentation
strategy too selective? Why or Why not?
13. Recession hit revenues of almost all brands and
BMW was no exception. BMW’s segmentation
strategy works perfectly in their favour because
the loss in 2008-09 was due to a global economic
crisis and not because of a loss in target market
Under these circumstances, if BMW would have
moved to production of automobiles for the
masses, that might have backfired at them. BMW’s
target market is the upper-class society of this
world who would not hesitate buying a high-end
car even in tough times. Hence, BMW staying put
with their loyal customers was a wise decision.
