I have found the study quite interesting, beneficial and insightful. Through market survey and work experiences I get to gather some authentic data regarding future success of breakfast cereals in Bangladesh. I hope you will find this report valid, precise and valuable. I shall be available to answer any question for clarification. Thank you for your sincere support.

  • MKTG 3003 Brand Critique Nespresso
    MKTG 3003 Brand Critique Nespresso Executive Summary This report critically evaluates the management of Nestle’s premium portioned coffee brand, Nespresso, on the basis of consumer based brand equity. To do this a brand overview is provided followed by an analysis of brand equity and marketing program and the provision of recommendations to combat identified threats to brand equity. After examining the basic segmentation variables, the report defines Nespresso’s target market as high income frequent coffee drinkers who seek quality and convenience. Further evaluation of Nespresso’s marketing program identifies that the most significant elements of the marketing mix relate to the design of the coffee system; the Nespresso Club services; a premium pricing strategy; and celebrity endorsement; and an exclusive distribution strategy. The report identifies the sources of Nespresso’s brand equity as brand awareness and image, which are reinforced through the repetition of previously identified brand elements. Threats to these sources of brand equity include Nescafe’s brand extension into portioned coffee and increased competition. Consequently, the report recommends that the future management of the brand focuses on strengthening the brand’s existing position 1 Table of Contents 1.
