In this presentation we are going to analyse a brand that is not performing well using the brand essence model. Using the Five Pillars suggest how the brand could improve its positioning.
Eastman Kodak founded in 1892 and dominated the photography industry through the 20th century with innovations like roll film and mass-produced cameras. However, in the 1970s Japanese competitors like Fuji gained market share through lower prices. Kodak was slow to transition to digital photography in the 1990s as preferences changed, and filed for bankruptcy in 2012 due to falling revenues and billions in debt. The document examines Kodak's rise to dominance, challenges from competitors, and ultimate failure to adapt to digitalization.
This document discusses Kodak's declining market share in film and proposes options to address the issue. It analyzes Kodak, Fuji, and Polaroid's market shares, growth rates, and pricing strategies. One option is to launch a new economy-tier film called Funtime Film, but the team recommends against this. Instead, they suggest renaming existing film lines to clarify quality differences and focus on innovation to justify Kodak's premium position.
Kodak's 2004 strategy under CEO Daniel Carp had four pillars: 1) Slowly exiting the traditional film business, 2) Leading in distributed digital output like printing, 3) Growing the digital camera business, and 4) Expanding digital imaging services. However, this strategy failed because Kodak's core competencies in film became rigidities as the market shifted digital, they lacked market research, and were late entrants to digital photography. Under new CEO Antonio Perez, Kodak's current strategy focuses on outsourcing manufacturing, investing heavily in digital technologies, building a printer ink business, aggressive patent litigation, and brand licensing.
Kodak struggled to adapt to the digital age due to its dependence on highly profitable film sales. When digital cameras emerged in the 1980s, Kodak failed to believe they could be profitable, focusing on film over new technology. By the time Kodak acknowledged digital photography in the 2000s, it was too late as the market had already shifted. Kodak's slow, evolutionary approach was not adequate to drive the revolutionary change needed to transition its business model for the digital era.

George Eastman founded Eastman Kodak in 1880, pioneering portable cameras and making photography accessible to the public. However, Kodak was slow to transition to digital photography in the late 20th century as technologies like digital cameras and camera-equipped smartphones became popular. By 2012, declining film sales and late entry into digital caused Kodak to file for bankruptcy and exit the photography business altogether.
Eastman Kodak Company is a multinational corporation founded in 1880 that pioneered many innovations in photography. It grew through strategic acquisitions and new product lines but faced increasing competition in the late 20th century from Japanese firms and a decline in film use. Kodak underwent massive restructuring and workforce reductions to cut costs while transitioning to digital technologies and services.

Kodak failed to adapt to changes in technology as digital photography and smartphones rose in popularity. Specifically, Kodak focused on selling more film rather than transitioning to the new digital market. This allowed competitors like Fujifilm to gain market share with more flexible strategies. The key lessons are that companies must be willing to change with technology shifts, ask the right questions about their core business, and not rely solely on brand strength to resist cannibalization and disruption.

The Fall of Kodak- A tale of disruptive technology and bad businessTushar Sharma
- Kodak was highly successful in film photography but failed to transition to digital photography, eventually filing for bankruptcy.
- It was slow to recognize the shift to digital and the threat this posed to its traditional film business.
- While Kodak invested in digital, it struggled to compete against fast moving competitors and saw its market share erode significantly.
- Kodak's history shows how a firm's core competencies can become rigidities that inhibit innovation when markets change radically.
George Fisher is the new CEO of Eastman Kodak Company, which has lost market share in photo film to competitors like Fuji in recent years. Kodak's market share has dropped from 76% to 70% in the last 5 years. Fisher has devised a new strategy called "Funtime" to reposition Kodak's film brands. The strategy involves offering three tiers of films - Gold Plus as the flagship premium brand, Royal Gold as the new super premium brand, and Funtime as an economy brand to be sold only twice a year in value packs to compete on price.
Kodak was once a leader in photography but struggled to transition to digital. It dominated film photography for over a century through innovations like roll film and Instamatic cameras. However, it failed to recognize that digital photography would replace film. By the time Kodak entered digital in the 1990s, it was too late and faced competition from more nimble rivals like Fujifilm. Kodak's film business declined and it struggled to profit from digital. After years of losses, Kodak filed for bankruptcy in 2012, a shadow of its former self. The document analyzes Kodak's decline and failure to transition its business model from film to the digital age.
1. The document provides an analysis of Eastman Kodak Company and the digital imaging industry. It includes a brief history of Kodak, an external analysis of the industry and competitive environment, and an internal analysis of Kodak's financials, resources, and strategies.
2. Kodak struggled to transition from film to digital as demand for digital cameras and smartphone cameras grew. While Kodak had strengths in brand recognition and research, it failed to effectively transition its business model.
3. By 2012, Kodak filed for bankruptcy as it had billions in losses over the previous decade from its inability to adapt. However, the document notes that Kodak remained one of the largest brand
Kodak was a dominant player in photographic film but failed to transition to digital technology. They invented the first digital camera in 1975 but did not market it for fear of hurting film sales. As digital cameras grew in popularity at the hands of competitors, Kodak clung to film and missed opportunities in the new technology they pioneered. A feasibility study may have helped Kodak identify market trends and weaknesses in their business model, allowing them to adapt and survive the transition to digital that ultimately led to their bankruptcy in 2012.
Kodak was once a dominant leader in photography, controlling 90% of the film and 85% of camera sales in America by 1976 and rated as one of the most valuable brands. However, Kodak failed to transition to digital photography in time, remaining focused on its traditional film business instead of innovating. As digital cameras became popular, Kodak's film-based business declined and it eventually had to declare bankruptcy in 2012 due to its unwillingness to change and late move toward the new digital market.
This document outlines a marketing plan for Kodak to revitalize its film business. It begins with an overview of Kodak's history and decline due to digital photography. The current strategy of targeting casual digital users is analyzed. It is proposed to target professional photographers and film enthusiasts by marketing film's artistic benefits over digital. The plan includes promoting film's quality through festivals and specialty stores. Financial projections estimate the new strategy could increase revenues by 50% within a year by gaining market share from digital. In conclusion, the document recommends Kodak refocus on its film business to drive growth.
KODAK is the world's first portable camera that introduced us into the world of photography. Here are the detailed information about the downfall of "KODAK" and reasons behind
it's bankruptcy.
Kodak was a pioneer in photography technology from the late 19th century until the early 2000s. It introduced roll film and mass-market cameras like the Brownie, dominating the photographic industry. However, Kodak was slow to transition to digital photography despite inventing the first digital camera in 1975. When digital cameras replaced film in the early 2000s, Kodak's business model collapsed as film sales plummeted. Kodak filed for bankruptcy in 2012, unable to complete the transition from film to digital that disrupted its entire industry.
Eastman Kodak faced challenges that threatened its future success and existence. George Eastman created the photography industry when he patented film rolls in 1879 and started selling Kodak cameras to amateur photographers in the late 1880s. Kodak was headquartered in Rochester, New York after being founded by George Eastman in 1889.
This document summarizes Kodak's decline due to the rise of digital photography. It discusses Kodak's original business model of film and photo processing. While Kodak invented early digital cameras, it failed to transition its business model from film-based to digital. Mistakes included rejecting small opportunities, over-investing broadly, isolating new and old businesses, and allowing innovators to leave. Compared to Fujifilm, Kodak lacked management consistency, focused too much on profits, and became complacent. The document recommends Kodak pivot to printing in medical fields.
Kodak's 4-year strategy from 2003 failed to transition the company away from traditional film business towards digital. The strategy had 4 pillars: 1) Slow exit from film, 2) Lead in digital output, 3) Grow digital capture, 4) Expand digital services. It failed due to core competencies becoming rigidities, lack of market research, late entry into digital photography, and unwillingness to change. The current CEO is pursuing outsourcing, investing in digital/printers, aggressive patent litigation, and brand licensing to generate revenue during bankruptcy restructuring. Lessons are that strengths can become weaknesses, external changes must be addressed, and innovation alone is not a solution.
The Walt Disney Company and Pixar Inc.: To Acquire or Not to AcquireEric Moon
This document discusses Pixar and Disney's potential acquisition of Pixar. It provides overviews of both companies and their capabilities. Pixar has strong animation and storytelling capabilities as well as a culture that promotes creativity and collaboration. Disney lacks these capabilities and has a more hierarchical culture. The document considers alternatives to acquisition like a strategic alliance but finds acquisition makes the most sense for Disney's growth given Pixar is a near-perfect strategic fit. However, risks include integrating the different cultures and financial risks around stock dilution from the deal. In the end, Disney's CEO believes more can be accomplished through full ownership than a joint venture.
Apple uses its retail stores to attract customers and tourists, generating 20% of its revenue. The stores have a calming atmosphere and well-trained staff. While the stores are expensive to operate, they achieve high sales per unit by showcasing Apple's passionately designed products. The stores primarily target high-end consumers and help improve Apple's brand value globally. The document recommends Apple expand to more developing countries where it is currently restricted.
Coca-Cola has a long history dating back to 1866 when it was founded by John S. Pemberton. It now owns 500 brands across more than 200 countries and territories. In 2019, Coca-Cola had a 43.7% market share in the US and was one of the most valuable brands globally. The company segments its markets demographically, geographically, psychographically, and based on customer behavior and climate. It targets specific age groups, lifestyles, occupations, and media habits. Coca-Cola has positioned itself as a global leader in soft drinks, generating most of its revenue outside the US, and its logo is recognized nearly universally as a symbol of joy and happiness.
This document analyzes the cola wars between Coca-Cola and Pepsi using Porter's five forces model. It discusses the industry background and key events in 1886 and 1893. It finds that supplier power and buyer power are low due to commoditized raw materials and franchise agreements weakening bottlers' bargaining power. The threat of substitutes is high given many low-cost alternatives and customer switching costs. New entry threats are low due to high costs but rivalry is strong. The document concludes that the substitutes force is changing most as health concerns reduce carbonated soft drink consumption.
The Walt Disney: The Entertainment KingAnuj Poddar
This case is comprised of the company's history, from 1923 to 2001. The Walt years are described, as is the company's decline after his death and its resurgence under Eisner, some topics are devoted to Eisner's strategic challenges in 2001: managing synergy, managing the brand, and managing creativity. The case was written by Michael G. Rukstad and David Collis

It also discusses Kodak's marketing efforts, including recent news articles about their new line of inkjet printers and dual lens digital camera winning innovation awards.
Kodak Branding Strategy | Jeff Hayzlett, Kodak iStrategy
- The keynote address discusses the need for companies to adapt to changing times and new technologies or risk failing. It emphasizes transforming brands to engage customers through social media where conversations are happening. Specifically, it highlights shifting perceptions to be seen as more digital and tech-savvy while maintaining traditional values like trustworthiness. The address argues marketing through social media at scale can drive value through low-cost interactions with communities where customers spend time.

This document outlines a 4-step process to create a personal brand mantra: 1) Identify emotional modifiers to describe your personality; 2) Choose a descriptive modifier to specify your focus or audience; 3) List what you do or will do; 4) Combine the lists into a short, memorable phrase no more than 5 words that communicates who you are and inspires you. Following these steps helps craft a clear, simple statement of your personal brand.
This document discusses brand mantras and provides Nike as a case study. It defines a brand mantra as an encapsulation of a brand's positioning. Nike's brand mantra focuses on innovative products and peak athletic performance. It communicates, simplifies, and inspires through strong brand awareness and associations with star athletes. Elements like the iconic Swoosh logo root the brand in Greek mythology. The seminal "Just Do It" campaign tapped into Nike's authentic values and addressed an underlying social tension by urging fitness. Its success was due to impeccable timing and appealing to consumers' desire for body worship and group membership through the brand. The document stresses adhering to the brand mantra across markets and using it
THE BRAND GAP is the first book to present a unified theory of brand-building. Whereas most books on branding are weighted toward either a strategic or creative approach, this book shows how both ways of thinking can unite to produce a “charismatic brand”—a brand that customers feel is essential to their lives. In an entertaining two-hour read you’ll learn:
• the new definition of brand
• the five essential disciplines of brand-building
• how branding is changing the dynamics of competition
• the three most powerful questions to ask about any brand
• why collaboration is the key to brand-building
• how design determines a customer’s experience
• how to test brand concepts quickly and cheaply
• the importance of managing brands from the inside
This is a fantastic presentation from Marty Neumeier from his book Zag. If you are short of time skip to slides 63 - 68 to see the evolution from marketing to branding. Love it.
Kodak faces weaknesses such as a small market share and poor strategic decisions in the past to resist digital change. However, it also has strengths such as a history of innovation and brand recognition. The document identifies opportunities for Kodak to leverage its brand through new technologies, products, and adapting to consumer needs, as well as threats from high-competition and declining parts of the printing industry.
The document analyzes the situation of Eastman Kodak Company in the early 1990s. It discusses Kodak's strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats. It also examines problems the company faced, such as declining sales in its core film business due to competition from Fuji. To address this, Kodak diversified through acquisitions but struggled to manage its new businesses effectively. The document recommends transforming Kodak's executive team to include more marketing expertise and decentralizing decision-making authority to division managers to allow faster responses to changes in the market.
The document analyzes the situation of Eastman Kodak Company in the early 1990s. It provides an overview of the company's history and business segments. It then performs a SWOT analysis, noting strengths like its brand but also weaknesses like a lack of innovation. The financial position is still healthy but declining. The marketing analysis finds Kodak losing market share and slow to adapt. Management is seen as conservative and technically-focused. The main problem identified is how to successfully manage acquired companies to become a truly diversified conglomerate. Two recommendations are made: transform executive/management teams to be more marketing-oriented, and decentralize decision-making authority to business divisions.

4-1 CHAPTER 4 Environmental Scanning And Industry AnalysisAmber Ford
Here are potential answers to the questions:
1. The resource-based view is highly relevant as it focuses on a firm's internal resources and capabilities as sources of competitive advantage, which are important for strategic management in a global environment where resources and capabilities can be leveraged across borders.
2. Value-chain analysis identifies the primary and support activities within a firm and how they create value. By analyzing costs and value added at each stage, a firm can identify strengths and weaknesses within its value chain.
3. A firm's structure and culture can provide strengths if they are well aligned with strategy and encourage innovation, collaboration, etc. But rigid or dysfunctional structures and cultures can act as weaknesses by hindering strategic change and flexibility.

Eastman Kodak's CEO presented a $3 billion digital imaging strategy in 2003 that involved rapid acceleration in Kodak's technological and market development of digital imaging. This would be funded by slashing dividends, causing shareholder dissatisfaction. The challenges were whether to proceed with the investment plan or focus on established products and markets. Kodak had strengths in traditional photography but faced uncertainty in competing aggressively in the emerging digital market against competitors like Fujifilm. The case discusses Kodak's options to invest heavily in becoming a major digital player or maintain its core strengths in traditional markets.

Brand follows product life cycle or can they defy itshubham mandloi
The document discusses the product life cycle concept and how it applies to brands like Nokia. It covers the typical stages of introduction, growth, maturity, and decline. For Nokia, it summarizes their journey through each stage:
1) Introduction stage from 1995-2002 when they launched early models to establish their brand in a market with low demand.
2) Growth stage from 2003-2009 when features and models improved, driving rapid sales growth.

24 key practices for creating and delivering globally competitive products & ...CompellingPM

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs
