This is an era of
information
revolution
which is undermining
the logic of
aggregation
Information rich
environment makes
disaggregation more
efficient
Consumer behavior can
be effectively driven
through two way
communications
1. Consumer
Relationship
2. Channel
Relationship
3. Organization of
brand management
The answer an be
found by
examining…
Consumer
Relationship
Relationship arises when a
brand repeatedly fulfills its
stated promise but these
relationships tend to be
shallow
But with
disaggregation...
• Two way communication possible
• Reduction in communication cost
• Increase in hit rates
• More precise pricing
• Increase in consumer satisfaction
Channel
Relationship
Why is
it
needed?
Because
retailer’s
business is no
longer about
“collecting rent
on shelf prize”
Because brands can’t
afford to be
delisted from
retailers as they
control access to
the consumer
Marketing budget
spent on retailers
=
2x spent on the
end consumer
But this way manufacturers are
feeding their own enemies
Disaggregation provides
manufacture an
opportunity to influence
consumer decisions
which are independent of
retailer
Thus, in channel
relationship too
brand is perceived
as no longer being
the focal pointc
Brand
Management
organization
- Marketing initiatives
developed at brand level
- Brand managers are
foundation of company’s

to be an impediment to
disaggregation
Brand managers are given
choice to put money in the
disaggregation marketing
program or continue using
traditional media

is just another media choice,
not a different way of doing
business
3 necessary elements

We can conclude that
Disaggregation is a different

challenges brands and brand

structures

environment?

developing and communicating a
differentiated value proposition
in the market
• brand might even rightfully
aspire to the ultimate prize — a
relationship with the customer
