I feel Apex would be best served by launching Compound B-227, the beta-prednigones, since it already has market domination in plastic oxidizers with its stigone market dominance. Although Apex has the desire to be an innovative company they should look at the introduction of betas as an innovative way to sell plastic oxidizers. Apex can now produce both types of products to customers in the plastic oxidizers market. Since Apex already has a good customer following in the oxidizer market for quality stigones they would be wise to optimize this reputation with the introduction of betas. Apex should look at the recent ten percent stigone profit loss and re-align their market to fit the stable and growing $40 million oxidizers market, a market they currently have a high dominance in.
Chocoberry Marketing Strategy (Distribution Strategy Recommendations) Success of consumer products is widely derived from the marketing strategy being employed by the marketing team of the company who produces and distributes it. The area of distribution or placement of the product/s is one of the innate elements of the four P’s of marketing that must not be taken for granted by the marketing planners. Especially on products like the Chocoberry because it significantly helps the marketing effective and productive due to the fact that it creates networks of distributions or distribution channels that would make the said products exposed and accessible to the target market segments. As marketing consultant, I will suggest that the marketing team would first identify the target market segments, quantify their numbers according to the particular geographical area where they belong, the areas on which they usually congregate in massive numbers and identifying the prospective locations and distributing partners. One must take note that chocolate product like Chocoberry has a very wide market due to the fact that almost any kind of consumers eat chocolate.
More Minutes of Flavor Robert Shipman DeVry University Professor Wunibald English 112 More Minutes of Flavor The ad posted by gum manufacturer, Beech Nut, for their peppermint flavored gum communicates the uniquely longer-lasting, better tasting flavor over other brands tested. The ad itself is colorful, simply displaying the event of an independent research study being conducted on selected secretaries. This approach directs attention to the fact that research is an effective method of determining what consumers think about their product and why. Beech Nut’s goal is to communicate to the reader that they, the consumer, can discover how long and how much they “enjoy its better, stronger peppermint flavor.” Using appeals to reason (logos), to practicality (ethos), and to emotion (pathos) they successfully and effectively persuade the reader to believe that the gum they provide has been consumer tested for enjoyment, better taste, and “more minutes of flavor.” Beech Nut uses an appeal to the consumer’s sense of reason (logos) to persuade them into believing that most secretaries prefer their gum to the other brands. Beech Nut starts out with a statement that creates an interest in the consumer to find out what secretaries think.
