Brita
Brita’s Company Product:
• Brita Pitcher-filter water system Price: $15.16 pitcher system and $4.10 filter
• Brita faucet system Price: $34.99/$39.99 Faucet System
Place: Pitcher system: main health food chains introducing department stores, mass merchandise, grocery stores, club stores, drug stores. (Minimum advertised price). Faucet to be launched.
Promotion: They are very focused in taste for pitcher. It has been a good decision since I think probably to try to find another proposal for purity and health for the faucet system.
Diagnosis: The first question is can we launch faucet system? Or would it cannibalize the pitcher system in which we are the leader? I think we definitely should launch the faucet system it is cheaper so we can access to another segment of customers. Also the faucet could even convince people that regularly drink water directly from the tap, because it last longer, and the cost is lower compared to the pitcher. It even helps the customer get to know Brita and improve taste on water, and even evolution as a Brita customer, first the faucet system then the pitcher.
Then how would we promote the faucet in order to differentiate it from the pitcher? Would the taste be also the main focus on our campaign? Or should we focus on health and bacteria? Even though public is not very aware of the bacteria issues on water.
Another question is to launch the faucet filter with the Brita brand? I think it would be easier to introduce the faucet as part of brita water systems. It would also improve brand image since we will be promoting innovation, and serving other customer’s needs positioning brita as a more complete brand.

With Brita reluctant to explore the alternative options quickly, other competitors such as PUR, have gained a firmer foot-hold in terms of market-share relative to Brita.…

While many believe that tap water is more beneficial to the body, others believe that the convenience and advertising of purified bottled water is acceptable enough for themselves. As we consume water, we concern ourselves with issues such as if it is harmful to the environment, if it is harmful to our health and whether the product is convenient for us.

    judge would do this by writing general warrants, which allowed general search and seizure to happen. Massachusetts wrote a law in 1756 that banned these warrants, because tax collectors were abusing their powers by searching the colonists’ homes for illegal goods. These general warrants allowed any messenger or officer to search a suspected place without any evidence. It also allowed them to seize people without even saying what they did wrong or showing evidence of their wrongdoings. Virginia also banned the use of general warrants later due to other fears. Then on December 15,1791 the Fourth Amendment was added into the Bill of Rights…

    In addition, the device had to be fail-safe from a consumer perspective – and so it needed indicator to signal the approaching end-of-life of the consumable refill component (which was subsequently named ‘Germ-Kill Kit’), and also to have an auto-shut off mechanism that would shut the flow of water when the germ-kill power of the consumable refill component was over. Notably, at the time, even premium UV and RO purifiers that were priced at USD 100+ did not have an end-of-life indicator, or a safety auto-shut off mechanism. The product design was further complicated by the fact that a sound understanding of the target consumer had translated into a whole range of ergonomic, aesthetic, and aspiration-related design requirements for the product.…
