This version is the 100 best slides in my opinion; see also the top 20 highlight show.

Porsche has a long history dating back to 1931. It struggled financially during the 2008 crisis but was acquired by Volkswagen in 2010. Volkswagen's plan is to fully integrate Porsche by 2011, which risks diluting the brand. Porsche faces challenges retaining executives and customers as it expands its product line under Volkswagen ownership. It must also address tightening emissions regulations that threaten its US market. Porsche will help Volkswagen achieve its strategic goal of becoming the top automaker by 2018 through technology sharing and diversification, but maintaining its brand strength and customer loyalty will be critical.

Porsche: Guarding The old While Bringing İn The NewErsel Şimşek
Porsche has traditionally targeted financially successful customers seeking exclusivity and status. However, in the 1970s-1980s Porsche introduced several cheaper models like the 914, 924 and 944 to increase sales goals by 50%. This upset some loyalists but expanded Porsche's customer base. Today Porsche must balance catering to traditional customers focused on driving experience versus newer customers attracted by practical vehicles like the Cayenne and Panamera who prioritize cargo space and passenger needs over driving experience.
Porsche is a German automobile manufacturer known for high-end luxury sports cars. Founded in 1931, Porsche is headquartered in Stuttgart, Germany and owned by Volkswagen AG. Porsche sells high-performance vehicles worldwide, including popular models like the 911, Boxster, Cayman, Panamera, Cayenne and 918 Spyder. While expensive starting at over $50,000, Porsche positions itself as providing high quality, high performance cars for elite customers seeking luxury and status.
In 1931, Porsche was founded by Ferdinand Porsche. People buy Porsche cars because they mirror the owners' self-image as successful and stylish. In the early 1970s, the Porsche 914 became the top-selling model because it was much cheaper than the 911. In 2002, Porsche introduced the Cayenne SUV, expanding its product line beyond sports cars.
This document discusses Porsche's brand positioning and marketing strategy. It summarizes that Porsche positions itself as a high-quality, high-priced exclusive sports car manufacturer. It then discusses segmenting the Porsche market and targeting everyday users. The document outlines Porsche's "Magic Marketing Mix" that focuses on practicality, prestige, product, and predictability. It concludes with Porsche's strategy to increase sales to 200,000 cars annually by 2018 through growing customer enthusiasm and becoming an excellent employer while maintaining high returns.
The document discusses the future of the sportscar business and Porsche's strategy to prepare for it. Key points include:
1) Connectivity and electric mobility will be important to the future of sportscars, and these technologies need to be perfectly integrated into Porsche's digital environment.
2) Porsche's digital ecosystem called Porsche Connect is the beginning, and connectivity and performance are a perfect match.
3) Charging infrastructure will be key to unlocking the future of electric mobility.
The "Company of Ideas" campaign was unveiled by BMW in May 2006 to change its perception beyond its traditional association with "yuppies" and target the "creative class." The campaign emphasized BMW's independence and freedom to pursue innovative ideas with minimal emphasis on performance features. Ads encouraged radical ideas and designs to convey how BMW becomes an ultimate driving machine. While the campaign intended to reach new customers and increase sales, it received criticism for a lack of market research and potential customer confusion over its diluted messaging.
The document summarizes a presentation on BMW's brand strategy. It analyzes BMW's current "joy" campaign, brand positioning, and performance across various brand metrics. It identifies issues like weak performance perceptions and lack of appeal to some segments. It recommends strengthening performance marketing, tailored campaigns to better target women and youth, and accepting trade-offs to focus on the most lucrative segments.
