Tattoos aren't us Case Analysis
1. ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS
The rise in the phenomenon of tattooing and
body piercing did not escape the attention of Burton
Ritchie, owner of The Psychedelic Shack, a shop that
caters to the popular culture market. When, teen
actresses Liv Tyler and Alicia Silverstone appeared in
the popular video for the Aerosmith song “Crazy”,
the belly rings they wore created a demand for body
piercing in places other than the ear. Also, tattoos
traditionally associated with sailor and tough guys
have become popular. Today, body piercing shops
and tattoo parlors are often house in same
establishment.
2. Burton is marketing major, had developed a
successful business by carefully observing trends in the
market and sensing which trends would become
profitable business lines. His tattooing business was
based on solid facts about the market. By the early
2000’s, 10 percent of Americans have or have had
tattoo. Research also showed tattooing was a youth
phenomenon. Based on his experience, that virtually
all of his tattooing customers were in the 18- to-24
year old category. He also knew that the research
showed tattooing was equally attractive among males
and females, and it was equally appealing to white,
blacks and Hispanics. It was also inversely related to
education. High school graduates or those with less
than high school educations were much more likely to
be tattooed and have body piercing than the college
graduates.
3. Although Burton Ritchie’s shop enjoyed revenue
generated by tattooing and body piercing in the late
1990’s and early 2000’s, Burton wondered what the
trend would be in the future. A quick look at his high
school annual yearbook and the “silly” clothes
everyone wore “back then” was all the assurance
Burton needed to know that his phenomenon still
occurs. But, what interested he is the fact that
tattooing had the major disadvantages of being
permanent. He recalled reading research that showed
that 91% of Americans agree with the statement that
people should be careful about getting tattoos because
they are permanent. Sure, there are laser removal
devices, but they are very expensive and do not always
remove all of the tattoo.
