Since 1901, Hansgrohe has been committed to innovation, design, quality and performance in the products that we manufacture.  We are considered “Shower Experts” and have over 2,000 patents to date, which has also earned us the title of “Das Original”.  However, we understand that we must remain competitive in the industry, but will not sacrifice our innovation to become another “me too” manufacturer.  Therefore, in 2006 the “Counter Strategy” project was kicked off from our headquarters in Schiltach, Germany.  <br />The objective of the “Counter Strategy” project is to effectively monitor our top competitors from a product, sales and marketing, and innovation perspective for the North American market.  In addition, prepare a SWOT analysis to give leadership a snap-shot of the competitive landscape.<br />Goal:Prepare and improve our Counter Strategy report on our two main competitorsby using the previous CSG and CSK reports as a benchmark to begin the research process.  Ultimately, diving deep into each category and providing insight into the current status of each company.  <br />Objectives: <br />Prepare a direct comparison to our key initiatives vs our competitors focus on these target markets:- Architects & Designers- Plumber/Contractors- Trade Customers at Counter Level- Costco<br />Marketing Matrix – marketing is playing an even more vital role now that the marketing budgets have been slashed.  What marketing activities are they focusing on, what is the percentage of traditional marketing vs. “new” marketing?, what promotions are they doing, what is the structure of the websites and what are the top three messages on their sites, advertising efforts print vs. web, tradeshow matrix – where are they exhibiting and what is the focus, literature – what are they producing or our they moving to web based e-brochures, are they involved with non-profit organizations and how do they market their partnership.
