The following factors are used to develop and define the sun care segments: Demographics - different groups of consumers behave differently (factors relate to age, gender, etc). Demographic differences relevant to NIVEA Sun include different buying behaviours between men/women and adults with children. There is a stark contrast between awareness and usage of sun care products between men (who prefer convenience) and women (who enjoy more luxurious sun care products). Similarly, adults with children are another broad segment with differing needs. Demographic segments are broad. As research shows, the level of awareness of sun care transcends income and social class. Concerned Consumers 'a good tan is not important'. These consumers are conscious of the harmful effects of the sun and purchase sun protection products that are most likely to offer high sun protection factors Attitudinal this is the most important segmentation variable. Consumers' attitudes towards sun care influences their purchases. NIVEA Sun conducts market research to understand user attitudes. This involves questionnaires using a nationally representative sample, and more intensive research with small groups, to discuss individual skin protection habits and preferences. This has identified 5 distinct groups for protection and after sun: 1. Sun Avoiders - avoid sunbathing and using sun protection when in the sun - it is seen as a chore. These are unlikely to purchase a sun care product. Through education, this segment may be convinced to protect using more easy-to apply products such as sprays. 2. Careless Tanners - adore the sun but don't protect against harmful dangers. Tanning is important to this group, not protection. They don't worry about the long-term damage to their skin and may purchase a low SPF product, if any at all. 3. Naive Beauty Conscious - like to have a good sun tan. They recognise that sun protection is important but fail to understand about Sun Protection Factors (SPFs). These consumers may still be interested in the core features of a sun protection product (e.g. SPF) and be more inclined to purchase an added-value offering such as a mousse. Question 1.

In his presentation at a Canadian Advertising Research forum on Wednesday morning, Dhan Kashyap, strategy director at Diageo Canada Inc., explained how a new positioning had boosted sales growth for Baileys. What was interesting to me was that the repositioning encouraged consumers to reassess what the brand stood for. Baileys is a strong, differentiated brand in Canada that has been supported over time with effective above-the-line advertising. Positioned for years as a brand to accompany intimate moments and special occasions, Baileys has never relied on promotions or price discounting. But after two years of robust sales increases, the year 2005 brought a rapid deceleration in the brand's sales growth. Diageo considered various strategies for boosting the brand's sales momentum. Increasing penetration was not really an option, since, to use Diageo's consumer loyalty terminology, over 50 percent of target consumers were already "Adorers" or "Adopters." It was not that people did not like the brand; they simply did not drink it very often. The obvious strategy was to try to extend usage to more frequent occasions, but people who were conditioned to think of Baileys as an indulgence for special occasions would not feel comfortable ordering Baileys in an impersonal setting like a crowded and noisy bar. The brand was boxed in by its existing positioning. Yet repositioning the brand as one being suitable for casual social occasions would put it into direct competition with many other spirits brands. The question became, how far could the positioning of Baileys be stretched toward more public usage occasions without undermining the strong bond it had forged with consumers through its associations with special occasions? Whatever the brand did, consumers would need to reconsider what the brand stood for. Challenging goals were set for changing brand attitudes, including decreasing the perception that Baileys was for special occasions, and improving claimed past 4 week usage. Aggressive goals were also set for the TV advertising. The agency brief called for breakthrough copy that would achieve an Awareness Index of 9 or higher in Millward Brown's Link pretest (well above the Canadian norm). As Dhan stated later, in order to achieve significant changes in entrenched attitudes and behavior, compelling creative is a must. You need breakthrough copy and cannot settle for something that is merely average. Question 1.

But as the number of online banking customers grows, so too do the security risks, particularly for high-value commercial banking transactions which make a tempting target for cybercriminals. HSBC, the global banking group, wants to encourage more commercial customers to use internet banking. But it has long recognised that the security measures used on its personal banking website – a combination of PIN and challenge phrase – were insufficient for business accounts. To allay widespread fears about internet security among its personal banking customers, HSBC promises to refund the amount of any unauthorised transaction conducted online. But for commercial customers, the value of transactions can be quite high – HSBC’s UK commercial customers have a £100,000 daily transaction limit – and the risk to the bank is consequently much greater. To reduce the risk, HSBC recognised it needed a way to better authenticate its commercial users. “Most banks just re-badge their personal internet banking offering for commercial customers but we recognised that businesses need greater functionality and also better security,” says Trevor Oney, Senior Manager, HSBC’s senior manager for e-commercial banking in the UK. In 2002, HSBC began to use digital certificates to authenticate its UK commercial banking customers. “It was spectacularly successful and the fraud levels we got using digital certificates were truly minuscule,” says Mr Oney. Nevertheless, the use of digital certificates created support headaches for the bank. As the certificate – a small piece of software code – is installed on a specific PC, the customer must always use the same computer to access their bank account. In addition, certificates periodically expire, obliging customers to download new ones. Sometimes, the certificate was deleted by accident – when a new operating system was installed, for example. According to Mr Oney, these issues led HSBC to look at a less “intimidating” way to protect its commercial banking customers. Security experts have long argued that the best way to prove that people really are who they claim to be is using “two factor” strong authentication and this is the approach HSBC chose. With two-factor authentication, the user can only access the site if they successfully pass two separate challenges: one based on something they know, such as a PIN or mother’s maiden name; and the other based on something they own. In the case of the HSBC, the object of desire is a small electronic device called a “token” which generates a fresh password each time a button is pressed. The tokens are supplied by Vasco, a Belgium-based company specialised in authentication technologies. Tokens have been used for security applications for some time– one common application is to authenticate remote users trying to access a corporate intranet –but most deployments to date have been limited in scale. Nevertheless, for HSBC’s internet banking initiative, the bank ultimately wants to distribute the devices to all its commercial banking customers that have registered to use online banking. That is around 400,000 users or half the total number of business customers that HSBC has in the UK. The high penetration rates might surprise those critics who once argued that internet banking would never be as popular as branch-based banking. Question 1.

Most companies typically communicate by stating what they do, how a company is different or better, and the expectation from the company of a behavior, such as a purchase. The Golden Circle theory focuses on the following elements: Why as a central focus in the inner circle, The How is the next outer circle, The What is the outermost circle. The why is the cause, purpose, or belief of the organization, according to Sinek, very few companies know why they are in business. Sinek cites Apple’s former CEO Steve Jobs vision of design and simplicity guiding how Apple does things and what they produce. “Everything we do, we believe in challenging the status quo. We believe in thinking differently. The way we challenge the status quo is by making our products beautifully designed, simple to use and user-friendly. We just happen to make great computers. Want to buy one?”. Apple’s method of communicating provides consumers’ with trust, confidence, and a set of shared beliefs inspiring people to make a purchase from the company. The how refers to the actions a company takes to bring the beliefs into reality. The what are the resulting actions, such as the services, products, culture, marketing, and employees. As a result of its marketing communication strategies, consumers have confidence they are purchasing a quality product whether, it is a Mac, iPhone, iPad, iPod or iTunes software. The shared beliefs between Apple and consumer’s along with positive product and service experiences are critical in establishing the brand in the mind of the consumer. Question 1.

The failure of Satisfries was a major blow to the global fast food giant which was struggling to provide better dining experiences to customers by serving healthy fast food at its restaurants. Burger King introduced the lower-calorie fries with the objective of attracting more health-conscious consumers and boosting its health-friendly image among the fast food giants in the world. But critics questioned its claim about offering fewer calories and a heathier fast food option than its rivals. The product also failed to satisfy consumers who were not clear about the advantages of Satisfries compared to the company’s regular fries. Moreover, its overpricing, weak brand positioning, bad marketing decision, wrong social media advertisements, and lack of product differentiation among others, resulted in the failure of Satisfries.
