Red Bull Case Study Question 1 Global strategy: the company’s brand image, slogans, target group, core businesses, etc. are the same across the world. Glocal strategy: the company spread its business in global market, yet customized its products or services to fit in different cultures locally. Local strategy: the products and services are designed to meet the language, culture, etc. to reach the specific target audience. In my opinion, Red Bull implements a global marketing strategy. Firstly, the company tries to build a global brand image of a trendy energy drink. It also targets young professionals, adults (16-29) and club-goers all over the world. The company claims that rather than sell the beverage, it sells “a way of life”; and “Red Bull will give you wings” is the slogan used worldwide. Secondly, the company does not apply glocal strategy because it does not alter its strategy to any market: it targets the same group with the same price and appearance. Besides, the company only offers two varieties (original& sugar free), meanwhile the can design, packaging and label does not vary by country as well. In addition, irrespective of the local market, Red Bull uses only grassroots, guerilla, word of mouth, buzz marketing, etc. instead of print media advertising in order to keep one brand image all over the world. At last, the company uses the same channels to enter each market and distributes products in the same way to each country. So Red Bull is using global strategy by maintain the same brand image
