Plan Summary AMP is an energy drink product that has been in desperate need of a re-branding. The current brand appeals mainly toward males. This is because of the masculine look of the product, as well as its current advertising being geared towards males who play sports. Its advertisements mainly list the product as being able to enhance ones skills and endurance on the playing field. Due to this way of advertising, other demographics are left out. Our plan would shift the focus to other demographics, specifically toward women. Our solution to this would be to re-brand the product to have two separate lines: one for women and one for men. The male product line will stay the same as the current line that is available now. However the women's product line will feature a sleek new look that is both feminine and attractive. The advertising for this brand new line will gear the product towards those who enjoy the nightlife.
