Lux plans to cater to all these customers. "Beauty begins with Lux. "The strategy that is used by lever brother for their lux sunscreen is on specific "product Benefits strategy" as the lux sunscreen promotes "Sun Protection" benefit as well as "beauty" .Lux sunscreen revolves around the slogan that is:Lux Sunscreen is not considered as a new product. It is a re launch of the existing product Lux. This feature of the soap makes it different from the existing Lux soaps. Lux Sunscreen is being termed as a "Re launch of Lux Beauty Soap with a variant" by Lever brothers. Lux already has a strong position in the soap market. Lux's sunscreen target market is upper and upper-middle class For sunscreen Lux is using skimming pricing strategy. Lux sunscreen was the re launch of a variant, hence it should be publicized differently than all other Lux beauty soaps

    Marketing Plan for Pampers

    • 6587 Words
    • 27 Pages

    The #1 product in market share and sales in the United States in the diaper industry is Pampers, a product owned by Procter & Gamble (P&G). The introduction of disposable diapers may be one of the best examples of the impact on a market when there is dissatisfaction with the status quo. Pampers Diapers were born in 1956 when Vic Mills, a P&G researcher, disliked changing the cloth diapers of his newborn grandchild. So he assigned fellow researchers in P&G’s Exploratory Division in Miami, Ohio to look into the practicality of making a better disposable diaper. At the time, disposable diapers were used in less than 1% of the billions of diaper changers in the United States each year.…

    One hundred and forty years ago, Arinobu Fukuhara built on his experience working as chief pharmacist at a navy hospital to establish Shiseido, Japan’s first Western-style pharmacy in the Ginza district of Tokyo. Concerned about the inferior medications then available to the public, he aspired to separate medical care and pharmaceutical dispensing in Japan. Shiseido’s first president, Shinzo Fukuhara, led Shiseido into the cosmetics business in 1897. The only cosmetics sold in Japan at that time, powder and lipstick, were simply for altering appearance. Dissatisfied with the status quo, Shiseido brought a fresh perspective to cosmetics (n.d.). They formulated their products like pharmaceuticals because they strongly believed that the true value of cosmetics was in achieving healthy, beautiful skin. Based on this belief, Shiseido has developed with an unwavering philosophical commitment to high quality, innovation and authentic value. Millions of people have come to know and trust the Shiseido name as a result. The origin of the company name “Shiseido” is a passage from the Chinese classic, I Ching (The Book of Changes): “praise the virtues of the great Earth, which nurtures new life and brings forth new values.” Shiseido puts the intent of this passage into practice by discovering and creating new value. This is our founding spirit, and it continues unbroken as Our Mission, Shiseido’s raison d’être (Annual report 2012).…
