PRESS RELEASE 12 CITATIONS 13 2 I. Executive Summary: With the rebranding process, my main focus will be on making physical changes to the appearance of the brand, also updating the food options by making it much more healthy. Subway has been in need of a makeover for a while now, which is why now is the best time to do it. Since Jared Fogle was the face of the franchise for so long, people associate the old Subway logo and slogan with the commercials he did in the past. In order to dissociate from Fogle completely, creating a new look for Subway will be a fresh change for consumers. The new logo and slogan will have no connection/affiliation to Fogle, therefor this gives Subway a chance to start fresh, which is where the new slogan, “a fresh start” comes from. Our new slogan "a fresh start" perfectly describes our vision for our company. What's special about Subway's new slogan is it is applicable to everyone; we could all use a fresh start in some area of our lives. I also plan to remodel the interior of all Subway restaurants because it is outdated. I want the space to be bright, open, and modern which will hopefully make it more inviting for customers to eat-in. In addition to the interior remodel, I plan to add yummy yet healthy items to the menu. Although Subway is healthier than McDonald’s, it isn’t as healthy as some of the options offered at Chipotle. In order to appeal to the health- conscious audience, Subway will be completely eliminating any and all GMO ingredients. We want to give our customers the best quality. Also, Subway will offer much more than just sub-sandwiches, we will offer more variety and options of healthy foods. We plan to expand the breakfast menu by adding steel-cut oatmeal, Greek yogurt parfaits, fruit smoothies, etc. Subway is going to change how people view “healthy.” Healthy eating doesn’t have to mean eating foods that are flavorless and unsatisfying. In fact, it will be just the opposite; we will offer foods that customers wouldn’t think could be so delicious and healthy all at the same time. II. Introduction to Organization: In 1965, Fred DeLuca, who was only 17 years old at the time, opened his very first sandwich shop in Bridgeport, Connecticut. He wanted to create a submarine sandwich shop so that he could pay his college tuition for medical school. To help kick 3 start his business plan, DeLuca borrowed $1,000 from Peter Buck, who was a family friend. Together, DeLuca and Buck co-founded the hugely successful sub-sandwich franchise we now know as Subway. Subway became one of the first fast-food chains to offer build-your-own, customizable food. The concept of customers being able to see the assembly line of their food being made, and being able to choose exactly what they want and don’t want on their sandwich, was a new and innovative concept at the time. What also made Subway stand out from their competitors was the fact that their food was healthier than McDonalds, Wendy’s, Burger King, etc. Subway is currently the third largest fast-food chain in the nation, with approximately over 44,400 locations spanning all over the world. I chose to rebrand Subway because while they may seem successful, in the past year, Subway has faced many challenges. The most highly publicized was the Jared Fogle scandal that happened this past summer. Jared Fogle first rose to fame when he became the spokesman for Subway in January of 2000. He claimed he lost over 200 pounds by eating Subway along with exercising. Fogle was once a valuable asset to the company, “Subway attributed one third to one half of its growth in sales to Fogle, with revenue having tripled from 1998 to 2011.” In August 2015, Subway officially broke ties with Fogle after news surfaced that he was involved in child pornography and pedophilia. On November 19th, 2015, Fogle plead guilty to all charges against him and is currently serving a 15-year sentence. Subway has suffered a decline in sales since the scandal. Which is one reason why a company should not have a person/celebrity represent the brand because if they mess up, it ends up affecting the company’s reputation as well. In order to dissociate from Fogle, who has been the face of the franchise for fifteen years, Subway needs a complete makeover from head to toe. III. Marketing Objectives: a) Rebranding Objective- Remodel/refresh Subway from the ground up by January 2017: o Create a new logo and slogan. o Redesign the interior of all restaurant locations- make it modern, open- concept, bright, overall up to date. 4 o Healthier food and drink options such as fresh-pressed juices, smoothies, whole wheat bread, vegan/vegetarian options, etc. o No GMOs- ban any genetically modified/enhanced ingredients. b) Financial/Sales Objective- Expecting to see an increase in sales between 10- 15% within 12 months of the rebranding campaign. IV. SWOT Analysis: a) Strengths: o Offer customizable sandwiches. o A large number (approx. 44,000) of Subway locations in the U.S. and worldwide. o Partnership with the American Heart Association- helps consumers easily find healthy food options offered at Subway. b) Weaknesses: o Subway is not keeping up with their competition, not staying up-to-date. For instance, Chipotle and other food chains have gotten rid of GMO ingredients- Subway has yet to do this. o The interior and décor are outdated, have not made major changes in seven years. o Does not have a strong online/social media presence to connect with their customers. o Customer service is not consistent from store to store. c) Opportunities: o Change the atmosphere/environment of Subway locations by updating interior to encourage customers to dine-in and eat. o Use social media to interact and build a relationship with customers. o Make Subway more appealing to children, which may encourage children to eat healthier. o Create drive-thru for those on the go, or in a hurry. d) Threats: o The increasing number of competition offering healthier fast food (ex: Chipotle, Firehouse Subs, Panera, even McDonald’s, etc.). 5 o Lawsuits against Subway. For instance, in 2013, Subway customers filed a lawsuit claiming that Subway was falsely advertising their foot long sandwiches. Customers measured their sandwiches, and noticed the sandwiches were shorter than twelve inches. Subway responded by saying that all franchisees will be required to use a measuring tool to make sure that the sandwiches are the correct length. o Health conscious people who would rather eat somewhere with no GMOs, more vegetarian options- such as Chipotle. V. Product Strategy: a) Target Market: o Demographic: upper to middle-class parents, teenagers, young adults, and adults. o Psychographic- Health conscious individuals looking for a meal that is healthy yet quick and affordable. o Geographic- In the city where there is great diversity in people, and also the suburban areas where middle-class individuals live. o Specific Target Market: Appeal but not limited to the millennial generation who is health conscious. b) Product Positioning: Subway offers a wide array of delicious foods that are healthy and fresh, to keep you fueled and satisfied without the feeling of guilt. I want people to look at Subway as more than just a sub-sandwich shop, Subway will now be that one stop shop for families, young adults, teens, anyone, who wants to find a healthy meal at an affordable price. Healthy doesn’t have to mean less yummy meals; there are many meals that can be yummy and healthy, the best of both worlds so to speak. c) Competitive Analysis: Top Competitors: 1. McDonald’s Strengths- offers a wide variety of foods that range from burgers to a salad; they have something for everyone. Also their prices are very affordable which broadens their audience. 6 Weaknesses- they are perceived as an unhealthy fast-food chain who promote unhealthy eating habits- the documentary, “Super Size Me” made consumers think differently about McDonald’s. 2. Chipotle Strengths- offers high quality food that is healthy, fresh, and GMO- free. They also have great customizable options that cater to personal preferences such as offering vegetarian alternatives. Weaknesses- their higher-end prices for their food compared to competitors, and the limited menu options available (ex: burrito, burrito bowl, tacos, salad). 3. Firehouse Subs Strengths- it is the second fastest growing franchise in America. Weaknesses- does not have a strong international presence. What sets us apart from our competitors? Even though the competition is growing, there are a few things that make us stand out among the rest. For instance, when McDonald’s was first established, many people looked at it as junk food. It wasn’t until consumers began to question McDonald’s integrity when it comes to food quality, that McDonald’s began to implement “healthier” foods to appeal to a broader audience.

  • Child Pornography Is Sex Trafficking
    Child Pornography is Sex Trafficking January 31, 2017 By Human Trafficking Collaborative Network (HTCN) 1 On December 30, 2011, Former President Obama declared January to be National Slavery and Human Trafficking Prevention Month. The general public’s awareness of human trafficking has improved considerably over the past years. At the time of this writing, the last day of the 2017 Human Trafficking Awareness Month, we are grateful that many community activities have been held in St. Louis and surrounding areas. Some activists participated in a series of anti- human trafficking campaigns at the Missouri Capital; some held a vigil for survivors and victims who lost their lives; some held resource dissemination events to better inform service providers, concerned citizens and students. In light of a very recent high-profile indictment of a St. Louis County child pornography case, we are compelled to providing regional information on child pornography in the context of human trafficking. As defined by the Victims of Trafficking and Violence Protection Act of 2000 (TPVA, 2000), [i] human trafficking includes recruitment, harboring, provision, receipt, transportation and/or obtaining of individuals by using force or threats, coercion, fraud and/or using systems of indebtedness or debt bondage for purposes of sexual or other forms of economic exploitation. Coercion includes threats of physical or psychological harm to the 1.

  • What Are the Implications of Minimum Wage Regulations on Franchising?
    What Are the Implications of Minimum Wage Regulations on Franchising? Alicia Cofiño Robert Emerson J.D. March 20, 2015 1 Abstract Franchising is often overlooked when people speak about “big business.” However, franchise companies are often those that consumers use almost every day. Franchises include chain restaurants such as McDonald’s and Subway. Additionally, when the legal world and business world intertwine, franchises worldwide are affected. When specific laws about workers are discussed, the effects of these regulations on franchising need to be examined. Specifically, proposed regulations to increase the minimum wage vastly impacts franchisors and franchisees, not just employees and their families. This article examines the positive and negative effects of increasing the minimum wage requirement on United States franchising. 2 Table of Contents OVERVIEW ................................................................................................................................................. 4 HISTORY ................................................................................................................................................... 10 FRANCHISE LAW ...................................................................................................................................... 10 MINIMUM WAGE REGULATION ............................................................................................................... 13 Figure 1: Historical Minimum Wage Prices Adjusted for Inflation ..................................................

  • Subway Officially Cuts Ties with Jared
    adage.com http://adage.com/article/cmo-strategy/subway-officially-cuts-ties-jared/300012/ Subway Officially Cuts Ties With Jared Maureen August 18, Morrison 2015 Subway has appeared to officially sever its ties to longtime spokesman Jared Fogle after news reports surfaced that he was going to plead guilty to possession of child pornography charges on Wednesday. Said the company on Twitter: Earlier on Tuesday, a local Fox affiliate reported that, according to sources, Mr. Fogle was going accept a plea deal on Wednesday, but not much more detail was available. Mr. Fogle initially had his relationship suspended by Subway in early July after federal authorities raided his home. At the time, the federal agents did not specify why they investigated Mr. Fogle's residence, but it came less than two months after Russell Taylor, executive director of the Fogle Foundation, a group that is dedicated to helping teach kids healthy lifestyle habits, was arrested on child pornography charges. Following those charges, Subway and Mr. Fogle said they had severed all ties with Mr. Taylor. ADVERTISING After the federal raid, Subway distanced itself by saying that it had "suspended" its relationship with Jared, but that language left some wiggle room for the brand to reinstate it. The company also removed its Jared references from its website, including what became an unfortunately named game on its kids' site called Jared's Pants Dance. Whether any of this will affect Subway's business of course remains to be seen, but it's possible it won't impact it much. "I don't think it will materially impact Subway -- they already distanced themselves from him," said marketing consultant Denise Lee Yohn in an email.

Such dramatic weight gain while locked up is not an unprecedented phenomenon, researchers have found. Fogle is serving a sentence of more than 15 years for child pornography possession and having sex with underage prostitutes. Before that, Fogle spent 15 years as the face of Subway, crediting his regular diet of the chain’s sandwiches with helping him to lose 245 pounds. His weight loss relapse was reported this week by InTouch Weekly magazine. But there have been other prominent cases of prisoners gaining weight. Serial killer Gary Lee Sampson was reported in 2014 to have gained about 150 pounds over the course of roughly 11 years behind bars. Singer Chris Brown reportedly gained 35 pounds after about three and a half months in prison. Experts blame several factors, which can work in combination with each other.

  • Indiana State Report on Human Trafficking 1 | P a G E
    Indiana State Report on Human Trafficking 1 | P a g e December 1, 2016 Dear Colleagues, Human trafficking, a scourge against humanity, has far reaching impacts nationally, internationally, and in Indiana. I am pleased to provide the first comprehensive report in the State of Indiana on human trafficking. This is a project prepared over the past 18 months by many individuals and organizations who contributed to the work of the Indiana Protection for Abused and Trafficked Humans Task Force (IPATH), the state-wide human trafficking task force, and others who serve victims and who contribute daily, such as members of law enforcement, victim advocates and legislators. In 2009, when I first became co-chair of the task force with the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Indiana, little was known about this horrific crime, its victims, the perpetrators, or the trauma inflicted on those who fall prey to it. Through my service as the Chair of the National Association of Attorneys General Special Committee on Human Trafficking, I further realized the scope of this scourge and its impact on victims nationally and across the globe. Today we know far more than we did then, or even as far back as 2005 when the taskforce was first created. While we have made tremendous progress in policy, legislation, and research, we still have a long way to go. I am proud to present a summary and overview of the work done by many people in our state, from victim service providers to law enforcement, to lawmakers and researchers. This report represents a cumulative picture of those efforts, and outlines, most importantly, a path forward with ideas, recommendations and thoughts for the future.

  • On “Violence Against Women”
    On Violence Against Women Bennett Capers* I. INTRODUCTION We all know the statistics. One in three women has experienced domestic violence.1 Nearly one in five women has been raped.2 Quite simply, it is not safe being a woman. Or a girl for that matter.3 It is definitely not safe being a co-ed on campus.4 Or a woman in prison.5 Or a female gamer in the virtual world of gaming.6 And there is danger on public streets, if the response to a viral video of a woman being catcalled in New York City is anything to go by.7 Even women who have been trained to use physical violence are at risk. I am referring to the Stanley A. August Professor of Law, Brooklyn Law School. B.A. Princeton University; J.D. Columbia Law School. E-mail: [email protected]. The genesis for some of the ideas contained in this Essay first originated in remarks given at a panel entitled Sexual Assault and Violence Against Women at the symposium Locking Up Females, Failing to Protect Them, and Punishing Their Families and Children, held at Southwestern Law School. So my first thanks go to my co-panelists from that event for a lively exchange of ideas. My second thanks go to Aya Gruber, the guest editor of this Ohio State Journal of Criminal Law symposium, for inviting me to participate in this symposium and prompting me to think more deeply about those earlier remarks, and to adapt those remarks into this Essay.
