Red Bull's greatest strengths are its marketing strategy of "anti-branding" and "anti-marketing" as well as its alliances with distributors. It is recommended that Red Bull maintain its non-traditional marketing strategies through sponsored extreme sports events and free samples. These strategies have helped Red Bull target generation Y consumers and become a cult favorite brand. Red Bull's sponsorships are effective at attracting current and potential consumers but it needs to continually re-evaluate its strategies to ensure they remain effective and know when to draw the line if approaches become outdated or ineffective.
