    J&B Mirror Ball http://www.diageo.com/en-row/NewsAndMedia/P... Press releases: 2007 JεB invites world to 'Start a Party’ with new mirror ball campaign 13 March 2007 Diageo, the owners of JεB Scotch whisky, announced today that it will be investing over ten million pounds behind a brand new global marketing campaign for its party whisky brand JεB, Europe’s most popular Scotch. The ‘Start a Party’ campaign will be launched in over 20 markets in all regions over the next 12 months through packaging, print and radio advertising, digital media, displays in off licence stores and, importantly for the mixable whisky, through high profile events and promotions in bars and clubs. Since its creation JεB has been the ‘untraditional’ Scotch, associated with parties, innovation, mixing and socialising. From Dean Martin and the Rat Pack drinking JεB in Vegas to modern stars dancing on the JεB party boat off the coast of Ibiza, JεB is at the heart of every great party. Now, this campaign takes this association a stage further by inviting everyone to ‘Start a Party’ themselves. At the centre of the campaign is the ultimate party symbol: the mirror ball. Nik Keane, global brand director of JεB says, ‘We are going big with the mirror ball – literally - and are going to have some real fun with this icon. For us ‘starting a party’ is all about attitude – optimism, sociability, enjoying life and having fun and we are using the mirror ball to convey this.’’ The campaign is in fact a ‘Start a Party responsibly’ campaign by making it clear that you don’t need anything other than yourself to bring fun, sociability and enjoyment to a group of people.

  • The Price of Liquor Is Too Damn High: Alcohol Taxation and Market Structure
    The Price of Liquor is Too Damn High: Alcohol Taxation and Market Structure Christopher T. Conlon and Nirupama L. Rao∗ October 2, 2019 Abstract We study the relative benefits of taxation versus market structure regulations for distilled spirits. One popular regulation, called post and hold, helps wholesalers set collusive prices as the competitive equilibrium of a single period game. Assembling new datasets of wholesale and retail prices, and sales, we show PH leads to average wholesale markups of 30-40%, with higher markups on expensive products. Taxes distort relative prices less than PH. We show Connecticut could increase tax revenue by 350% and improve consumer welfare while holding alcohol consumption fixed. However, we also show our counterfactual policy may be slightly regressive compared to PH. JEL Classification Numbers: H21, H23, H25, L12, L13, L42, L51, L66, L81, K21. Keywords: Excise Tax, Pigouvian Tax, Tax Efficiency, Regulation, Vertical Restraints, Quantity Discounts ∗Conlon: New York University, Stern School of Business. 44 West 4th St Kaufman Management Center 7-76 New York, NY 10012.
