    Strategic Planning for the real world How to harness the wealth of information, inspiration and insight on the Internet for more resonant, relevant and effective communications Nicholine Hayward April 2009 ͞WĞƌŚĂƉƐLJou will seek out some trove of data and sift through it, balancing your intelligence and intuition to arrive at a glimmering new idea.͟ Steven D Levitt and Stephen J Dubner Freakonomics Introduction The problem with Planning is that we need to know what people want. This means asking them questions, which immediately creates a dilemma. Every group, every, omnibus, survey or depth interview, however carefully planned and objectively moderated, engenders a sense of self- consciousness in the respondents that can skew the results. tĞ͛ǀĞall been to Groups where someone was afraid to speak while another liked the sound of his own voice a bit too much. tŽƵůĚŶ͛ƚŝƚďĞŶŝĐĞƚŽďĞable to ƐĞĞǁŚĂƚǁĂƐŝŶƉĞŽƉůĞ͛ƐŚĞĂĚƐǁŝƚŚŽut having to ask?

By looking at what millions of people are asking for and talking about online, we have access to the largest, most honest and unself- conscious focus group in the world. We can apply the results of this methodology to every stage of a business and marketing strategy, from developing the products that people are looking for and improving the ones they are already buying, to devising communications campaigns that really strike a chord. We can use it to see market and category dynamics reflected in consumer awareness and demand, to find out what people think about a brand, create rounded and realistic pen portraits and a resonant tone of voice or to gain insights into consumer behaviour ʹ and how best to reach them.

  • Marketing Strategies
    Studying Levi’s Marketing Strategies In this section you can research the marketing strategies developed by Bartle Bogle Hegarty (BBH) for Levi-Strauss’s European advertising campaigns between 1984 and 2007. Marketing Levi’s in the 80s: the 501 Campaign ■ Review the original 501 compilation with a focus on the strategy behind this campaign as a whole. ■ As you watch, make a note of any changes in the techniques and approaches used in the campaign, speculate about the possible reasons for the changes. After Viewing ■ In your group, try to summarise what you think might have gone into the creative brief from the advertising agency. Think about: – the strategy (why Levi’s are advertising) – the target market (who BBH are talking to) – the core messages (what the advertising is trying to say) – the mode of address (what tone of voice is being used). The 501 Advertising Strategies The quotations below and on pages 135-137 are from BBH and give you some idea of the thinking behind the campaign. In the fi rst two paragraphs key phrases have been highlighted – you might fi nd it useful to do this in the rest. ■ Compare your interpretations with the agency’s aims for the Campaign. The Context Through the 1960s and 1970s, ever since the exportation of jeans from America during the heady days of rock and roll, the denim jeans market grew dramatically. Driven fi rst by the ‘casualisation’ of the young, then by the dawning of permissiveness, the explosion of student numbers across the world, and the advent of the hippie, denim became synonymous with youth, with rebellion, with a new way of life..

  • Exclusive and Aspirational: Teen Retailer Brandy Melville Uses the Country Club Approach to Brand Promotion
    Volume 5 2016 www.csscjournal.org ISSN 2167-1974 Special Section BREAKING THE RULES Exclusive and Aspirational: Teen Retailer Brandy Melville Uses the Country Club Approach to Brand Promotion Sarah VanSlette Southern Illinois University Edwardsville Damion Waymer University of Cincinnati Abstract Italian clothing store Brandy Melville entered the American market in 2009, poised to compete against established American brands including Abercrombie and Fitch, Hollister, American Eagle, and Forever 21. With only a fraction of the retail outlets as the leading teen brands, the company needed to raise awareness among American teens, differentiate from its competition, and drive traffic to its website. Brandy Melville’s unique product line (one-size-fits-most clothing) along with its nontraditional marketing strategy (based solely on social media) have contributed to its rapid increase in popularity among teens. Keywords: Brandy Melville; retail; teenagers; marketing; social media; Instagram Introduction: Teen Fashion in the 21st Century According to the Spring 2015 Piper Jaffray survey of teen trends, teens are responsible for approximately $75 billion of discretionary spending, but tend to be budget-conscious and value-seeking (“Taking Stock,” 2015). This survey also revealed that teen spending is shifting away from goods (like clothing) to experiences (like dining out and entertainment). Jay To cite this article VanSlette, S., & Waymer, D.

    Globalization and Rapid New Market Growth Durland, Anillo, Chen, Vega, Tobin Globalization and Rapid New Market Growth How the International Fashion Market is Evolving to Capture Shifting Consumer Desires Taylor Durland, Natalie Anillo, Amber Chen, Andrea Vega, Colleen Tobin [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] University of Richmond 1 Volume 4, Number 1 Journal for Global Business and Community http://jgbc.fiu.edu Consortium for Undergraduate International Business Education Globalization and Rapid New Market Growth Durland, Anillo, Chen, Vega, Tobin Introduction The Italian word for fashion moda, comes from the Latin word mos, which means usage, custom, habit, and tradition. Fashion always has been a part of the human experience relating to culture, need for identification and differentiation, and hence, our need for a social identity. As society and culture change over time, so does fashion. The fashion industry has managed to develop and expand worldwide, forcing the concept of fashion to diversify to form a variety of fashions. We can find an ever-expanding and ever-segmented market in terms of customers, distribution channels, and competitors. Consumers face countless choices, forcing brands to differentiate themselves by offering unique products appealing to a large consumer base. Likewise, competitors are becoming bigger and more international, meaning brands must learn to balance operations management and economic results with creativity and innovation. Each brand must strategize appropriately to remain true to its roots, while also attracting as many consumers as possible. Finally, new distribution channels are developing, such as the emergence of e-commerce.
