Want Beverages is a business owned and operated by Bill and Angela Moffat alongside their Spellbound business, that sells energy drinks to young action sports consumers in Canada. They are faced with the challenge of defining their distribution intensity within their financial constraints, such that their product is convenient and available to their consumers and increases brand awareness among their target market. Want has a differentiated product that is promoted effectively to its niche market, but lacks the external financing and human resources required to achieve a desired level of profitability and brand awareness. The company is faced with negative retained earnings and struggles to succeed in the rapidly growing, highly competitive energy drink industry dominated by Redbull. Want must develop a defined marketing plan in order to attract potential equity investors or lenders.…
This would allow Coors to differentiate their product in a new way, while minimizing associated costs. Coors would still be required to integrate economies of scale and adjust “Rocky Mountain” water to be more inclusive—“Pure American Spring Water.” By using a new marketing slogan and using “locally supplied” ingredients, Coors could continue differentiating as a proud product using high quality ingredients and processes, only at a lower distribution cost. Keeping qualities of a differentiation strategy establishes higher entry barriers from customer loyalty and provides a cushion for profit margins. This would also help decrease supplier power from the integration of economies of scale and remove the associated operational risks. A combined strategy will allow Coors to adapt and grow in the future, helping to ensure the survival of the brewery.…
Mountain Man Brewing Company was established as a family concern in 1925 in West Virginia by Guntar Prangle. The company brewed single-product beer, Mountain Man Lager, which won “best beer in West Virginia” and was elected as “America’s Championship Lager”. Mountain Man Lager featured quality, bitter favor and slightly higher-than-average alcohol content that uniquely contributed to the company’s brand equity. Mountain Man was a local market leader and distributed its lager in several states outside West Virginia. By 2005 Mountain Man was generating over $50 million in revenue with over 520,000 barrels of Mountain Man Lager sold. However, Mountain Man had been facing serious challenges. Its revenue was encountering a 2% yearly decrease in 2005 as it faced fierce competition. Light beer was sweeping the beer market and gained 50.4% of volume sales in market share in 2005. Thus, the objective of Mountain Man in this case study is to increase sales revenue by moving into the light beer market. Chris Prangel, son of the company’s owner, hoped to achieve three goals in his marketing campaign: 1.) To produce a light beer in the hope of attracting younger drinkers to the brand; 2.) To sustain the core brand equity of Mountain Man Lager; 3.) To maintain a steady share of its market segment by regaining the 2% annual loss.…

If this product were to hit the shores of Australia, the potential target market would be those who come from a high socio-economic class along with a selected amount of businesses and also the entertainment industry.…

The problem with the existing Glacia water was that it did not accurately market itself as imported spring water from Canada, which would increase its market share from the French imported water, Evian. There were many things for Rob to consider as his research showed that consumers would be more likely to buy Glacia if they knew it was Canadian spring water. With the competitive grocery market at the time, especially with Wal-Mart’s emerging into the grocery scene, Rob needed to make a specific recommendation on how to increase its sales in context of the overall Own Brand strategy.…

The key idea in blue remembered hills was the change between the childish behaviour and their immoral choices to their views changing to become much more matured and making better life choices for them and others around them. The relationships in the play are very varied as there is a large power struggle between many characters; this made it very hard to see the true friendships and the false ones.…
One of the most heavily protected and environmentally significant areas of Australia is the Blue Mountains region. It consists of a range of unique geology and biodiversity, and as a result it was found to be a prominent region in which it would be internationally recognized and listed by UNESCO as a World Heritage Estate because of the many natural facets (UNESCO, 2009 and Commonwealth Government, 2009a). There are numerous national parks that are now regarded as part of the Greater Blue Mountains area, since the founding of the Blue Mountains National park 50 years ago (SITE). Most of these areas are in great ecological condition and are naturally vegetated (SITE)(Commonwealth Government, 1998).…

For such highly rated rum, the market penetration could be much broader and deeper across the US. Furthermore, although the rum is offered for sale in almost every bar, restaurant, and supermarket in the greater New Orleans area, the general public knows little about the product. They offer distillery tours, support local non-profits and host events at their distillery (http://www.oldneworleansrum.com/). They have successfully distributed their product but they are still in need of a more strategic marketing plan to reach the general public. They have the opportunity to capitalize on their origins in New Orleans’ 9th Ward and focus on their local flavors, especially in southeast…
