Case Analysis:Colgate-PalmolivePrecision ToothbrushVivek Kumar Gupta
In July 1992, CP senior management announced a new toothbrush model, the Precision, that was set to launch in early 1993. In order to meet consumer demand CP could introduce the toothbrush as a niche, super-premium or a mainstream, professional product. It could also introduce the product using standard naming conventions or introduce a new labeling system by calling it the “Precision by Colgate.” CP could leverage existing industry relationships and make an effort to form new ones in order to gain a competitive edge. At launch, CP could plan to offer competitive promotions, a popular offering that was slowly becoming standard practice in the oral care industry. The company could also increase its advertising budget to include educating the public on the dangers of gum disease. Depending on how it chooses to introduce the Precision toothbrush to the market, 1992 could serve as an important year for CP to establish itself as the definitive oral health care company.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

3. To define positioning, branding, and communication
strategies for its new product
Colgate precision
As well as what the advertising and promotion budget
should be and how it should be broken down.
7. •In 1992,Colgate-Palmolive set to launch it.
•It is developed for over three years.
•It is technologically superior toothbrush having
triple-action brushing effect.
•It removes an average 35% more plaque than other
leading brushes.
11. Industry executives divided the toothbrush category
into three segments
•Value
•Professional
•Super- premium
12.
13. Positioning
Precision was developed with the objective of creating the
best brush possible and as such, becoming a top-of-the
range, super-premium product.
14. Niche product
• It targets consumers concerned about
gum disease
Mainstream product
• It has broader appeal of being the most
effective brush available on the market
18. •It included warehousing and transport costs.
•All sales to the trade were made at a discount of approximately 5%
•Eighty percent of sales through dental professionals would be priced
at $0.79 per unit; the remainder would be sold at $0.95.
19. Under Niche Positioning Strategy
CP would establish a factory list price to the trade of
$2.13, a premium over Oral-B regular and at parity with
Oral-B Indicator.
Best location on the retail shelves would be between the
Colgate Plus and Oral-B product lines, with the Colgate
Classic product line on the other side of Colgate Plus.
If positioned with 4 SKUs, it was unlikely that any
existing SKUs would be dropped.
20. Under Mainstream positioning strategy
CP would establish a factory list price to the trade of $1.85,
at parity with Oral-B regular.
It could be located separately from the other Colgate lines,
close to competitive super-premium toothbrushes such as
Aquafresh Flex and Crest Complete.
If positioned with 7 SKUs, would probably require dropping
one or more existing SKUs such as a slow-moving
children’s brush from the Plus line.
33. Display Rack Capacity (brushes) Percentages of special Colgate
displays(%)
Counter unit 24 to 36 10
Floor stand 72 50
Sidekick 144 to 288 25
Top shelf 288 to 576 15
The CP toothbrush line held 25% to 40% of the
category shelf space in most stores.
35. Positioning
AS NICHE PRODUCT DURING ITS INTRODUCTORY AND
GROWTH LIFE CYCLE STAGES, LATER DURING THE
PRODUCTS’ MATURITY, IT SHOULD BE REPOSITIONED TO
THE MAINSTREAM PRODUCT
36. Reasons
•None of the 4 SKUs would be dropped when positions in niche
segment.
•In niche segment Precision retail shelves will be steup close to the
super-premium toothbrushes of the competitors, Colgate hopes to
make consumers aware about the additional benefits of Precision as
compared to the competitor’s niche brands.
37. Reasons (Contd..)
•If positioned as mainstream product, its production capacity would require
10 months lead-time and this sudden switch would also cause a shortage in
supply
•A negative result of channelling the Precision toothbrush through the
mainstream market is that the Children’s Plus model would need to be
dropped in order to make room for another product on shelf among the
other professional models. As a result, CP would also go another year
without any super-premium SKU on the market.
39. In strong competitive markets
Free 5 oz. tube of Colgate toothpaste (retail value of $1.89) with the
purchase of a Precision brush
In strong Colgate markets
50%-off offer on any size of Colgate toothpaste (up to a value of
$1.00) in conjunction with a 50¢ coupon on the Precision brush.
40. Reason
Consumer research revealed that the more
test consumers were told about Precision
and how it worked, the greater their
enthusiasm for the product.
42. Reason
•Colgate Precision name was consistently
viewed more favourably.
•it was deemed appropriate by 49% of
concept acceptors and appealing by 31%
