Brief history of the brand and a detailed profile of their target audience.
Baileys the brand is an Irish cream that was first been made in 1971 by Gilbeys of Ireland a
divistion of Distillers & Vintners. In 1972 the company was bought by Watney Mann then this
group was taken over by Grand Metropolitan. In 1997 Guinness merged with Grand
Metropolitan to create Diageo.
Mintel has carried out a study into the UK Liqueurs market in January 2013 that included 1460
Internet users aged 18+. (Mintel 2013)
4 in ten 39% of the UK alcohol drinkers consume liqueurs this includes Baileys, Pimms and
Jagarmeister. The market is worth just under £1 billion and of this market 45% is female and
32% male. The largest age range consuming liqueurs is 18-24 at 52%.
Liqueurs is a low frequency drink, with half of users have drunk a liqueur in the last year, but
not in the last month. Just under a fifth of all liquor drinkers would have drunk a liquor once a
week or more. By older drinkers is it seen as an after dinner drink ‘To finish a meal off’ and by
other younger user its considered a party drink. The drink is seen by the public as an special
occasion drink especially during festive Christmas period and new years.
Overall the positive perceptions of liquors out way the negatives. Of the UK alcoholic drinker of
liquors are 67% perceived as indulgent, this is supported by users believing they can be both
duel needed, as a party drink and a relaxing drink.
The minority of negatives perceptions of liquors include the drink is heavy, not fresh tasting,
untrendy and old-fashioned. However current users are more likely to see the category as
more sophisticated and not sickly sweet. Females are more likely to shine on the positives
then men, especially when considering the drink to be indulgent and a drink for relaxation.
Mintel research has shown demand for a smaller bottle by the 18-34 year olds, with two in five
41% mentioning that they would take bottles to dinner parties and social gatherings.
Carat is a media communications company that uses an annual survey of 11,000 people
called "Carat’s Consumer Connection System CCS” (Brand Republic 2010). The research
explored into the lives of a baileys drinker and then compared this data to IPA touchpoints.
(IPA 2011) [Appendix 1]
Carat found that the majority of users are social grade B or C1 this equates for the mass of the
population. According to (ipsos-mori 2009) B 32% population and C1 29% of the population.
Of this the average household income at £32k and 50% are married with 18% with a partner

and likely to have a child living within the household. Busy working lifestyles with modern day
economic financial pressures.
The personal use of technology by the baileys drinker is a laptop 46% for home use,
smartphone 30%, Sky TV 21%, digital radio 22% and games console 30% within the
household. The range of technology is good because it lets the agencies reach the target
audience in different ways.
Form carats consumer research they found three distinctive stages of motivations
1. In need of a moment – This might be during the busy commute in the car or on public
transport.
2. Preparing for a moment – This could be deciding on what to do for the evening, this
decision might be in the shop also choosing what dinner to have.
3. In the moment – A place of relaxation like at home in front of the TV second, screening
browsing the Internet. Or either out partying/socialising with a group of friends, drinking
Baileys or not.
4. MARKET
CONTEXT

Market context
The future of the baileys brand will struggle for growth. ‘Growth prospects for Diageo baileys
are not strong’ (Euromonitor 2011) Potential growth at under 4.4% globally expected in the
category over 2011-2016 if baileys maintains its shares in all markets.
The brand key markets are mature, offering limited growth. In addition baileys has reached
maximum penetration in these markets so will struggle to maintain high share stake. This only
was achieved during 2006-2011 through price promotion and flavour innovation. There will be
a limit of doing this in the future because of damaging brands equity and margins.
However other areas of growth are looking promising, countries like Russia where the brand
dominates and the category is expected to grow to 5% +1.8million litres in 2011-2016. Other
countries Euro monitor has highlighted steady growth like Brazil, South Africa and
underdeveloped emerging markets like Asia.
Diageo is the number one producer for spirits globally this was only due to acquisitions of
dominant players in Turkey Maylcki and gaining majority stake in Chinese Baiju producer
Sichuan Quanxing. Although the second and third to Diageo UB group and Pernod Ricard
were within 20 million litres off the top spot. Diageo retains strong lead within the UK 24% total
volume share in 2011 (Euromointor 2012)

AND
BRAND
IMAGE

The brand identity and brand image
According to (Leslie de Chernatony 2006) ‘Brand identity is the distinctive or central ideas of a
brand and how the brand communicates this idea to its stakeholders.’ The ‘brand identity is the
intended projection of the brand’, though the brand image is down to the person’s perceptual
process, their interpretation based on individual past experiences.
From Mintels research the brand image is that the drink is mostly an ‘Indulgent’ drink suitable
as a party drink, but also a relaxing right. Non-users of liqueur drinks believe them to be a
‘heavy-tasting’ sensation ‘Okay for a sip or two but not a drink for all night long.’ – C2DE male
aged 45-54 (Mintel 2013) How ever the public accept that baileys could be a drink at
occasions, usually around the festive period. The baileys brand has emotional warmth with the
British culture, the strong Irish roots.
Brand identity, Baileys is marketing towards the younger female audience this has been done
with the ‘cream with spirit’ campaign exploring the area of modern womanhood. The brand
difference is the values and history behind the product being the first cream based liqueur,
supported by the deep Irish roots and the quality of production. (Millwardbrown 2008) in a
report stated that Baileys is the fifth most powerful global spirit brand. Brand momentum 5 and
brand contribution 3. [Appendix 3]
The signs that makes baileys are well known in the UK, being the largest market for Diageo
after the USA (PRweek 2012). The shape of the bottle is instantly recognisable, also the
Baileys logos with the bold type font.

OF
CREATIVE
WORK

Review of creative work
With a Strong brand but questionable sales a new campaign by BBH ‘cream with spirit’ has
been designed to shine a light on womanhood. In this film a modern spectacular of a music
video inspired by the 1930s Hollywood film industry all supported by the soundtrack ‘Rapture’
by Blondie.
The ad connects to the target audience showing qualities like women can be strong and
feminine, beautiful and witty. The new campaign launched in the UK on Sunday evening during
the first episode of the new season of Homeland on Channel 4. TV advertising was be
supported by cinema, outdoor and digital executions. The film doesn’t change the fact that
baileys is a low frequency drink. The brand is well established in the UK market, the social
norm around the baileys drink needs to change, its peoples brand image that needs to
change.
The film is accompanied by four print shot by fashion photographer Norman Jean Roy. This
campaign overall is to make baileys are more stylish attractive brand. BBH is selling a lifestyle,
a lifestyle that the audience may just think I don’t need baileys to attain this.
The outdoor advertising was done effectively with partners such as Toni & Guy (a UK based
hairdressing company) where women of bought a bottle of Baileys would get 20% off at the
hairdressers. This partnership is good because the brand is strong with a high quality of
service, but to many of these partnerships may tarnish he brand in the long run, being so
closely established to price promotions.
Print creative work in support of the campaign was cleverly done. Partnered up with
magazines such as Stylist perfect for reaching the target audience. The magazine was a
special edition with support of a digital feature. If the reader had a smart phone they could
download an app and swipe a page in the magazine to receive exclusive content, a video on
behind the senses of the making of the ‘cream with spirit’ film.

Other creative content was the placement of Baileys sin style magazines like Grazia is an
effective touch point. Being recommended within in articles like ‘show your stylish side’ This
kind of promotion is good because it places context to when baileys can be drank and how its
drank all in a fashionable way.
Baileys on the social media landscape is smaller compared to other Diageo brands such as
Smirnoff. The brands bulk of content is found on Facebook. As it stands today the baileys
brand has 1.5million likes on Facebook, this is a small percentage that have seen the ‘cream
with spirit’ campaign in other forms.
The content on the Facebook page is mostly timely post for example, new years with fireworks
or a Christmas post with a bottle being unwrapped under the Christmas tree. Other content on
the page is recipes for baileys cocktails where people can like and comment. The platform is
missing interaction, they seem to be driving likes and comments, but no focus on how to get
users drinking more. From carats research people check Facebook in the morning (see
appendix) this morning touch point has not been implemented with any contextual value.
Baileys website site was set up by Profero. The website is a simple site with a simple structure
and a small amount of content. When entering the website the user is greeted by age
restrictions due to laws, but after this the front site is the latest campaign ‘Cream with spirit’
Youtube video. This asks the question are views organic to this Youtube video.
Onto the core websites functions of the website are recipes Desserts, Sweet treats, hot drinks
and cocktails. With market development showing the options people have with the baileys
drink, it doesn’t solve the bigger issue that people are drinking the product less. The Website
in the long term, will develop a product that solely depends on other products for its core use.
When the user browsers further into the different flavours on offer, the website turns into a
gateway directing the user to the facebook page.
The twitter space @BaileysOfficial is relatively small with only 392 followers and 148 tweets
running since 10th
of November. The posts are just the same as Facebook with pictures of
recipes for baileys drink. The use of hashtags have been used to support the ‘cream with spirit’
campaign #withspirt that is used a microsite where users can upload their Instagram photos to
9. REVIEW

through the mention of the hashtags. Particular fashion websites will use Google adwords to
show a banner ad to ask people to join the conversation. When the ‘Cream with Spirit’ Went
live the use of hashtags wasn’t mainstream, this is one of the touchpoints that has been lost
with the baileys campaign, user interaction.
Pinterest an interesting developing platform with its rapid growth since May 2011 (Techcrunch
2012) The content is the same as Facebook but more visual, Ads in another context and
photos of cocktails that can be re-pinned by followers. However the agency has only uploaded
pictures of he cocktails without linking them to the baileys website, so the Pinterest page has
been left with comments from followers like ‘where can I get the recipe for this?’.

Conclusions matching against current agency positioning
An understanding of a brand by (leslie de chernatony 2006) is that the nature of a brand is
multifaceted. A branding iceberg (Davidson 1997) where above the line the visual attributes
are the brand logo and name, But beneath the water, below the line the components like
values, intellect and culture. This is usually where a brands competiveness strategic
advantages are from.
However when the brief was given to the agencies hired by Diageo, have the aims of the briefs
interpreted correctly? Has the agencies position and own mission subjected the focus of the
client.
Ashridge mission model explores to fundamental parts of a brand identity because without
internal values, purpose, strategy, standards and behaviour the company would not be what it
is and the direction they are all driving towards.

In June 2010 Bartle Bogel Hegarty (BBH) was appointed to handle its £40million global
advertising account as apart of the marketing shake up. (Marketing Magazine 2010) With a
proven record of being successful creatively, the London office is currently Agency of the Year
as voted by Campaign magazine, the ARROWS (the British Television Advertising Awards)
and Creative Review magazine.
In July 2012 the Publisis group (the French holding group) acquired the remaining stake of
BBH this nevertheless did not change the way the business has been ran. "The new
ownership not only ensures our autonomy, but brings us considerable advantages through
Publicis Groupe's resources and global infrastructure," Mr. Bogle added. BBH mission is
behind all about creativity ‘the reason why we exist is to help out clients grow their business.’
(BBH 2013)
Concluding from the creative work that BBH has done for Baileys, their full abilities are not
being utilized. The campaign ‘Cream with Spirt’ BBH is known for its difference with the strap
line ‘when the world zigs. Zag’ but with this film its missing that big idea, that many of the
agencies campaigns achieve. The film hasn’t changed the brands image.
Carat as apart of ‘Cream with spirit’ is the media planner for the campaign. The agency uses
its research database system called Carat’s Consumer Connection system (CCS) an annual
survey of 11,000 people.
Carat is the world’s largest independent media communications company owned by the Aegis
group. This means the agency has access to other agencies like Posterscope the world’s
leading Out-of-Home communications agency. Carats mission is to help clients get the most

from the new era of media. Carat is a specialise in understanding and exploiting every media
opportunity there is.
The Carat agency is a specialise agency in media and has the resources to add contextual
value to when, where and what platform the ad is received on, but this has been missed. Carat
has used to same film, the same pictures to the target audience. The Carat research carried
out annually explores the day of the Baileys drinker, they use a wide range of mediums to
search for information, why not utilises this.
Bloom was hired to carry out ‘Bringing back the charm that lies at the heart of this unique
product.’(Bloom 2013) From this the agency has extended the brand identity into an on-going
range of flavours and ‘more dynamic off-pack brand world. The agency believes in the power
of intelligence and creativity to build brands, also helping brands connect more deeply with
their audience and grow sustainably for the owners.
The agency was briefed to bring back the charm of the product, their solution was to add to the
‘ongoing range of flavours’ this is avoiding the issues explored in part A, for example the
Baileys drink is perceived as a think, heavy drink, how in this way has the agency developed
the brand identity to react to this. Packaging has changed with development in bottle shape,
not size so that the product can now fit within fridge doors, this is an reaction to consumers
needs. Mintel report showed a demand for smaller bottle between 18-34 old. The new bottle
has not changed quantity of liquid, so that the price point has stayed the same not effecting
the position of the brand.
Profero created a created a global content management system through he baileys website
that could be used by Diageo and local agencies. Proferos mission is to transform the
experience of the brands across all digital platforms to ensure people spend more money, time
and social currency on your business.
The brief for Profero was simple even though they stated they had restrictions from Diageo.
The website isn’t captivating and eye grabbing for the target audience, there was a lack of
research behind the website, understanding the core uses, but also the other agencies uses

for supporting each campaign. The US twitter campaign #withspirit isn’t mentioned once on
the website.
Outfit was briefed to make a series of short films to support E4’s latest American import of 2
Broke Girls and celebrate the baileys flavours Hazelnut and Biscotti. Outfit UK mission is to
make content for brands, bold, innovative, entertainment-led advertising solutions that help
brands become part of culture, and get people talking. The flim produced by Outfit is very

Evolution of how the agency involved contributes to the brand current position
The agencies behind the brand has had a direct impact to the brand positioning in the market,
but the agencies are only part blame. Diageo are very much in control of the brand and its
activities for example Proferos brief there was within ‘Strict internal guidelines’ even though on
other products in the alcohol sector have been set more freely on the solution on simulair
briefs. Proferos content management system has lead to the brand being used in a range of
different ways, this in turn would promote buying a smaller bottle just for the use of cocking or
cocktail making, the website doesn’t support the core use of Baileys, a Drink with ice.
BBH’s campaign ‘Cream with spirit’ has repositioned the brand into a more sophisticated
brand. From previous work from the agency JWT that lost its touch with the target audience
this new film and supporting photos explored womanhood in a new light.
Carat is the media planner behind the campaign and with the bank of research that has been
done the placement of the film and the print ads would be key to the success. Carat missed
the mark making sure that the brand was connecting to the target audience, low potential to
see, lower awareness. The question is, how is the launch of the new bottle going to be
released?
Blooms input to the new bottle shape has lead the brand in new directions. Now being able to
fit in the fridge, letting the target audience have colder cooler product. The range of flavours
that Bloom have introduced has opened out the brand to a wider audience who didn’t like the
idea of just cream. Too many flavours will have a negative effect on the brand identity, this
includes product extensions like Häagen-Dazs Baileys Ice Cream to much and it will tarnish or
cheapen the ‘indulgent brand’
Outfit has a standard approach to sponsoring 2 Broke girls, the positioning of the brand has
not been effected by the films used, it has just informed the audience that other flavours are
available and baileys have other uses. Previous work by 4creatrive that held the baileys
account had sponsorship deals with the show ‘sex in the city’ and this was proven successful
(Millwardbrown 2008) [Appendix 2]
Unity has no effect on brand positioning as activity is below the line. If there were a case of
crisis management Unity’s response would be then measureable.
Dares input on social media has developed a high quality of service on Facebook, this is done
with a consistent amount of updates. The content is informative, like the release of the new
bottle and what the user can do with.

Issues impacting on the agency sector
The International Conference on Online Media Measurement (I-COM) 2012 was big data.
John Burbank, president of strategic initiatives at Nielsen, the research group, said in his
presentation, the world is in the midst of a “volume explosion” of data. Where advertisers and
brands once had painstakingly to construct research studies or assiduously question
consumers, now, thanks to digital devices, they have vast quantities of information at their
disposal. The opportunity is to understand the consumer but the issue is how do agencies
interpret the data. What data do they need, and other data sets that can be used together. An
issue mentioned in the event is that human analysis can only answer one question at a time.
This brings up the issue that research agency have tighter timescales, consumer is changing
quickly because of the access of information to them, by the time an agency has collected the
data from the consumer habits this may change just as quickly. (WARC 2012)
An article written by Tim Hipperson (Admap 2012) The future structure of agencies, mentions
that a third wave of change is happening. The third wave is the digital age with portable digital
devices. The need for content YouGov research commissioned by the APA revealed that 65%
of consumers want brands to provide fresh content online through social media or their
website at least daily, and believe they spend more time with brands. This is placing more
pressure on the current agencies that are doing social media more focus on content creation
agencies that understand how content works to develop business objectives like repeat
customers.
Agencies need to make sure they keep hold of the insight into clients’ customers and the
platforms they use. With ease of access to online media buying services by companies like
Facebook, Twitter and Google anyone can buy advertising space if they have the capital.
There may be a shift to in-house marketing activity if the data on insight can be attained easily.
Todays consumer are more sophisticated and more vocal then ever before. The expectations
are high for brands to deliver across a multimedia environment, agencies have to ensure
consumers receive a seamless experience of a brand, irrespective of how they choose to
interact with it. (Admap 2012)
An article in (Admap 2009) September edition there is an issue that many clients are suffering
to achieve fully integrated marketing with digital at the core, clients will need to be more
proactive in managing their roster of agencies. The range of agencies used for one brand has
its positives of each agency being specialist within each area but when an integrated
campaign is required by the client, this logistically is hard to carry out. If this was set in play
with all required channels of communication, how would measurement be calculated by each

However, we can see evidence more easily with
sponsorships. Consider the success enjoyed by
Baileys when it sponsored “Sex and the City” over
an extended period. The association lent a sense
of glamour and sophistication to Baileys and,
perhaps most importantly, linked the brand to the
sense of female bonding and togetherness that the
show created among fans.

HISTORY

Brand history
The
baileys
brand
is
portrayed
as
young
but
has
only
been
introduced
officially
in
1974
as
the
first
Irish
cream.
The
Irish
cream
was
first
been
made
in
1971
by
Gilbeys
of
Ireland
a
divistion
of
Distillers
&
Vintners.
In
1972
the
company
was
bought
by
Watney
Mann
then
this
group
was
taken
over
by
Grand
Metropolitan.
In
1997
Guinness
merged
with
Grand
Metropolitan
to
create
Diageo.
-‐-‐
In
1971,
a
group
of
high
echelon
managers
at
Gilbey's
of
Ireland
had
the
idea
for
a
unique
Irish
drink.
Whiskey
is
a
distilled
grain
product
which
is
blended
with
about
50%
cream
to
produce
Irish
Cream.
Back
in
the
old
days,
one
way
to
handle
an
upset
stomach
was
to
mix
whiskey
and
cream
together.
The
problem
was
that
the
two
would
only
mix
well
together
for
a
very
short
time.
Bailey's
found
a
secret
way
to
get
the
mixture
to
last.
No
one
had
managed
to
blend
cream
and
whiskey
before
and
the
first
Bailey's
Irish
Cream
appeared
in
a
ten
gallon
milk
churn.
They
had
been
trying
to
get
the
whiskey
to
mix
with
the
cream
and
it
took
three
years
of
patient
work,
plus
a
little
chocolate
and
vanilla,
to
create
the
truly
amazing
taste.
Finally,
on
November
26th
1974,
by
way
of
an
accident,
Bailey's
Irish
Cream
Liqueur
was
born.
The
process
used
was
mixing
chocolate
nibs
and
vanilla,
adding
burnt
sugar,
sugar,
and
then
whiskey
with
the
cream
to
make
this
delicious
drink
that
has
a
shelf
life
of
two
years.
Now,
Bailey's
is
not
only
a
drink
but
is
used
as
an
addition
to
coffee
and
many
recipes.

Target audience
DEMOGRAPHIC
• Four
in
ten
(39%)
of
all
UK
alcohol
drinkers
consume
liqueurs,
which
is
high
given
that
the
market
is
worth
comfortably
under
£1
billion.
• Penetration
is
skewed
towards
females
and
18-‐24-‐year-‐olds,
with
both
demographics
attracted
to
the
sweeter
flavour
profile
of
liqueurs.
• While
liqueurs
have
an
impressive
pool
of
users,
their
main
problem
is
that
these
drinkers
simply
do
not
drink
liqueurs
often
enough,
with
only
just
over
a
fifth
drinking
them
at
around
the
rate
of
once
a
week.

LOW
FREQUENCY
OF
DRINKING
CONTINUES
TO
BE
A
PROBLEM
• Despite
having
a
high
penetration
of
UK
drinkers,
liqueurs
are
a
low-‐frequency
drink,
with
half
of
users
having
drunk
them
in
the
past
year
but
not
in
the
last
month
and
only
just
over
a
fifth
drinking
them
around
once
a
week
or
more.
• As
Mintel’s
consumer
analysis
shows,
liqueurs
lack
a
consistent
drinking
occasion;
for
example,
they
are
viewed
as
an
after-‐dinner
drink
by
older
consumers
and
a
party
drink
by
others,
meaning
drinking
often
occurs
on
special
occasions
or
over
the
festive
period
rather
than
with
regularity
(see
Consumer
Occasions
for
Drinking
Liqueurs).

PERCEPTIONS
• The
majority
(67%)
of
UK
alcohol
drinkers
perceive
liqueurs
as
indulgent,
and
they
also
score
relatively
highly
for
the
dual
needs
of
being
a
party
drink
and
being
relaxing.
• Large
minority
of
UK
drinkers
as
heavy,
not
fresh-‐tasting,
untrendy
and
old-‐fashioned.
• Many consumers have negative connotations of liqueurs due to bad experiences when they were younger
• Current users are much more likely to see the category as more sophisticated, fresh-tasting and not sickly
sweet
• Female alcohol drinkers are much more likely to view liqueurs more positively than men. This is especially so
for attributes such as indulgence and relaxation.

• During
its

2011
(year

Diageo
announced
that
it
was

itself
so
it
could
focus
on
driving
growth
in
emerging
markets.
The
restructuring
programme
is
to
be

basis.
Business
objec+ves
• Following
the
economic
crisis
in
2008,
Diageo
realised
that
it
was
overly
reliant
on
the
mature
markets
of
Western
Europe
and
North
America.
The
company
has
now
set
the
target
of
having
50%
of
its
revenues
from
emerging
markets
by
2015.
The
company
has
already
made
a
good
start,
from
a
relatively
low
base,
with
the
share
of
its
revenues
from
emerging
markets
increasing
from
30%
in
fiscal
2009
to
34%
in
fiscal
2011.
• Diageo's
objective
is
to
remain
and
strengthen
its
position
as
the
world's
leading
producer
of
"premium"
alcoholic
drinks.
Premium
is
a
subjective
word,
although
if
it
means
spirits
excluding
local
low-‐value
(e.g.
Indian
rum)
and
higher
than
average
priced
beer
and
wine
products,
then
that
is
the
case.
• It
has
changed
its
focus
slightly,
and
following
the
acquisition
of
Mey
Içki
and
the
launch
of
an
Indian
whisky,
the
company
has
been
more
willing
to
look
at
lower
value
spirits
as
a
route
to
market
in
its
bid
for
greater
emerging
market
presence.
Diageo
to
focus
marke0ng
on
women
• "It
is
increasingly
working
with
all-‐female
creative
teams

to
influence
the
direction
of
brand
communications

SWOT
analysis
STRENGTHS
• Strong
brand
portfolio
Diageo
has
a
wide
range
of
spirits
brands.
It
is
the
world's
leading
blended
Scotch,
vodka
and
liqueurs
producer.
It
is
also
a
leading
producer
in
other
categegories,
such
as
rum
and
gin.
• Strong
distribution
The
company
has
a
strong
global
distribution
network.
In
most
markets
it
has
its
own
distribution
company.
In
others
it
has
joint
ventures,
while
in
other
markets
it
has
well
established
third
party
distributors.
WEAKNESSES
• Brand
portfolio
gaps
Diageo
still
lacks
brands
in
certain
categories,
with
which
to
fully
exploit
global
growth.
It
distributes
José
Cuervo
and
Hennessy
(which
it
part
owns),
yet
it
does
not
have
full
control
of
them.
• Overreliance
on
mature
markets
Even
after
its
Mey
Içki
acquisition,
65%
of
the
company's
spirits
volumes
come
from
mature
markets.
This
has
left
it
vulnerable
to
the
recessions
in
many
of
these
countries
such
as
Greece
and
Spain.
OPPORTUNITIES
• Booming
blended
Scotch
As
the
leading
producer
of
blended
Scotch
whisky
in
the
world,
the
company
has
the
capacity
and
the
brand
portfolio
to
exploit
the
CAGR
of
2%
(+86
million
litres)
predicted
over
2011-‐2016.
• Global
leader
in
vodka
As
the
world's
leading
vodka
producer
with
the
world's
leading
brand,
the
company
is
well
positioned
to
exploit
the
dynamic
growth
in
emerging
markets,
such
as
Brazil
and
maturing
Western
markets.
THREATS
• Growing
consolidation
Diageo
is
facing
increasing
competition
from
rivals,
most
notably
Pernod
Ricard,
and
only
held
on
to
its
leading
position
in
2011
thanks
to
acquisitions.
• Core
markets
possibly
returning
to
recession
With
most
of
Diageo's
revenues
coming
from
its
core
markets
of
Western
Europe
and
North
America,
the
possibility
of
a
further
recession
in
these
regions
will
hurt
Diageo.

The
new
‘Cream
With
Spirit’
campaign,
created
by
BBH,
is
designed
to
shine
a
light
on
women
and
celebrate
the
spirit
of
modern
womanhood.
It
recognizes
that
women
can
be
strong
and
feminine,
beautiful
and
witty.
With
its
unique
combination
of
Irish
Cream,
whiskey
and
spirits,
Baileys
is
the
perfect
blend
of
smooth
and
strong,
it
is
quite
literally,
“Cream
with
Spirit’.
The
film
is
a
modern
spectacular
and
is
reminiscent
of
a
music
video,
inspired
by
the
1930s
films
of
legendary/influential
Hollywood
director
and
musical
choreographer,
Busby
Berkley,
who
was
renowned
for
his
unique
style
and
ability
to
turn
dancers
into
‘human
kaleidoscopes’.
It
celebrates
the
spirit
of
modern
womanhood
with
a
visual
feast
of
sassy
dance
moves,
female
camaraderie,
spectacular
visuals
and
edgy
styling.
Set
to
the
cool
soundtrack
of
‘Rapture’
by
Blondie,
the
film
acts
as
a
metaphor
for
the
Baileys
liquid,
beginning
and
ending
in
the
glass
and
topped
off
with
the
line
‘Cream
With
Spirit’.

THE

Mission
statement
We make content for brands. We make bold, innovative, entertainment-led
advertising solutions that help brands become part of culture, and get people
talking.
To do this we have a unique way of working, blending our team of marketing and
advertising experts with TV talent from both in front and behind the camera. The
result makes for a very different kind of branded content that is genuinely
entertaining, cuts through to it's target audience, and delivers against the marketing
objectives.
We have a wealth of experience in creating good value, high quality entertainment-led
advertising campaigns for TV and social media. So whether it's creative ways to
reinvent the TV ad break, making stand-alone programming, branded online TV
channels, or digital content solutions, we make innovative content that draws the
audience in, communicates the spirit of the brand and importantly can provide a very
effective and attributable return on investment.

Engaging
America's
new
multicultural
majority
For
Peter
McDonough,
Diageo
cmo,
"the
nature
of
our
products"
determines
positioning
in
different
ethnic
markets.
"There's
no
functional
benefit
of
alcohol;
it's
more
about
social
currency
and
understanding
that
makes
up
social
values
of
that
currency.
"We're
constantly
tracking
trends
in
the
Hispanic,
GLBT
[lesbian,
gay,
bisexual,
transgender],
Asian,
and
African-‐American
communities.
We
track
awareness,
usage,
how
our
brands
are
perceived
within
the
segments,
and
whether
we're
staying
relevant.
If
not,
we
know
that
the
influence
these
emerging
segments
have
in
the
larger
community
will
be
compromised."
One
of
the
ways
to
ensure
against
such
downside
is
by
practicing
the
same
kind
of
budget
integration
that
General
Mills
has
adapted.
The
Diageo
cmo
told
the
ARF
audience,
"For
us,
it
was
critical
to
shift
mentality
that
our
budget
is
comprised
of
X,
Y,
or
Z
[audiences].
When
you
segment
your
budgets,
when
cuts
come,
you
cut
in
the
segmented
area.
We
look
at
one
budget.
Within
it,
we
look
at
how
we
employ
messages
to
key
segments."
And,
McDonough
added,
it's
not
just
a
spreadsheet
mindset:
"It's
helpful
to
have
it
embedded
in
management
thinking
as
well."
And,
just
as
General
Mills
learned
brand-‐positioning
lessons
for
its
yogurt,
so
did
Diageo
find
a
new
way
to
reach
customers
for
its
Ciroc
vodka.
"We
knew
that
African-‐American
consumers
enjoyed
the
flavor
profile
of
coconut,
significantly
over-‐indexing
within
that
market.
So,
we
took
the
disruptive
thinking
of
bringing
coconut
into
the
vodka
segment.
The
result:
The
brand-‐extension
flavor
appealed
to
its
target
audience
"and
took
the
broader
market
by
storm.
It
broke
out
our
brand
growth.
"To
me,
the
numbers
are
so
darned
compelling,
you'd
have
to
be
the
village
idiot"
not
to
realize
that
multicultural
concerns
"are
critical
to
the
long-‐term
discussions
for
marketing
any
brand."

On Sunday 7th October, Baileys, the Original Irish Cream, will unveil its most ambitious global

Launched in 1971, Baileys has always been a brand with strong female connections. The new ‘Cream

modern womanhood. It recognizes that women can be strong and feminine, beautiful and witty.
Garbhan O’Bric, Global Brand Director for Baileys said:
“With this brand re-launch Baileys faces an exciting future as we re-capture the true essence of the
brand. We’ve always been at our best and truest to ourselves when we’ve celebrated the brilliance and
magnificence of women and with this new campaign we are reaffirming that timeless truth, but are doing
it with a modern twist.”

“With ‘Cream With Spirit’, we’re celebrating the spirit of modern womanhood. I hope modern women
enjoy the campaign as much as we’ve enjoyed making it.”
The print campaign will be accompanied with a 60-second 1930s styled commercial, airing on Sunday
evening in the UK.
The whole campaign is centered around women – Baileys is and always will be a woman’s drink after
all. But I can’t help but be slightly offended by what the campaign’s message actually is. There’s
something about it that just doesn’t feel quite right.
Seeing the two of the total four print ads above, I think that what bothers me is – with the risk of
sounding like a dedicated feminist, which I really am not – that it feels like the campaign is actually
making a bigger point degrading woman instead of celebrating them. If woman in today’s (still mainly
men’s) world actually are witty, beautiful and strong, Baileys telling them to be the same is pointlessly
contradictory. In other words, the campaign tells us very clearly that woman are everything but what
Bailey’s celebrates them for, by telling them what they supposedly should be. For example, in the
second photo from above, the ad basically says that women don’t have a mind.
Therefore, this is not a celebration of women, is it? It’s more of a retrospect of what societies ‘perfect
woman’ should be, and – here comes the interesting part – what a woman might become when drinking
the product itself. All in all, if I drink Baileys I’ll have class and a mind of my own (Whoa! Thank you
Baileys!). Any thoughts about this? Feel free to comment!

Katrina, nice perspective. In my opinion, it would be much better if the company tells man how woman is
today. Something like: "To be more than an attitude, i choosed to have a mind". It is not about
"transformation" after drinking. Baileys must be part (a representative or an icon) of a specific culture (the
spirit of modern womanhood). The engagement with the brand is promoted by the process of self
identification with this culture. It is not a transformation of attitudes into a new culture,it is the opposite: the
new culture is forming the attitudes! The brand is just part of a complex structure of self expression.
Therefore, Baileys should be a kind of meeting point for every modern women celebrating the spirit of
modern womanhood.
