I m lovin it......McDonald (McFlurry Oreo in India now)

Recently, McDonald has launched McFlurry Oreo in North and East India. McDonald leading in market and playing with 65 % market share 2010, one of the largest fast food retail chain and compete very strong against rivals. McDonald is understand the Indian consumers marker and accordingly, it has been evolved Indian menu it in consider to Indian consumers like McVeggie Burger, McAloo  Tikki etc.

New brand: - McFlurry Oreo, Available in two flavor 

Punch line: - Slow down

Target market: - Especial concept which target to those who feel stress, want to relax from work etc.

Brand Concept: - The overall concept is about focusing on “Slow Down”, “When was the last time you relaxed? “  McFlurry Oreo will be giving you relax moment, cool, stress free, feel happy. You enjoy McFlurry ice cream very slowly and feel very relax. The television commercial has already been started in India but it has launched in only North & East India McDonald’s store. The brand campaign is more focus on corporate person than normal who are not doing job or business. 

Advertisement Link: - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AQLwR0Tu8GA (McFlurry)

Strategy: -  It has introduced “Augmented Reality” concept where McDonald’s stores can shooting of any customer and then load it in TV screen of store. This concept gives a feel of slow down where customers are enjoying McFlurry in relax mood. The other strategy is being used which is called Postcard Pass down strategy, where customers can pass that postcard to their friends, colleague or anyone who are feeling stressed, hectic working schedule.

If you will analyze it, you will get lacks in execution and concept of strategically:- 

      (1)    Actually, McFlurry can consume any person at any time, and normally consumers are consumes such products at entertainment moment, get to gather moment. The concept “Slow Down” is right but it should not target corporate person only. Overall McDonald is targeting majority up to 30-35 years age group of people. And McFlurry is such product where it will consumes majority youth market.

     

     (2)    The other thing is about execution that still it is lack of brand campaigning which is not giving effect of campaign. 

     (3)    It can not say or it cannot gives brand promise that if you will consume McFlurry, you will be feel stress less or relax. You can also consume many things like other brands ice cream, cold drink or anything else.

Therefore, it has lack that “Why consumers will use McFlurry?” and this thing could not be highlight in brand campaign.

There is not any doubt about selling terms, consumers will consume because McDonald brand not McFlurry. But, the important is need to develop McFlurry brand image with McDonald otherwise, it may give negative impact on McDonald corporate image.

What you feel?...

Whisper V/s Stay free ...And now Sofy side walls in Indian market....

Yes, Whisper and Stay free both brands are consistently fighting through out the year with wide range of products in sanitary napkin segment (Menstrual period). Both brands haves very wide range of products length as well as depth. And, both brands are offering customized sanitary napkin with different sizes & varieties. It was a day where Stay free brand was leading in sanitary napkin market. But, now Whisper is became leader with playing 40 to 45 % (Approx.) market share. Whisper has made lots of changes and promoted by strategically each brands.

In 2005, whisper has been created a great campaign with the punch line of “Have a happy period”. The word is directly related to “Period” (Menstrual). 

Brands: - Whisper (P & G), Stay free (J & J) and now Sofy side walls (Uni chem).

Segment: - Sanitary napkin pad

Total market of sanitary napkin: - Estimated market is Rs.1, 350 crore in India which is mostly dominated between two brands Whisper (Procter & Gamble) and Stay free (Johnson & Johnson).

Whisper Strategy: - Whisper is consistently coming with good campaign where it can get clear message, and also promoting by various ways and strategically. It is promoted not only by television commercial but also it has been used promotional activities. And, today’s time everyone know very well & getting maturity early, so brand is consistently engaging with consumers needs. Every time, both brands has been extended its portfolio in consideration of women/girls problem. 

Whispers core competency is its punch line “Have a happy period” which is very helpful to attracting consumers, as well it gives you in return real happiness. Therefore, whisper brand is became market leader. And still it is growing. Before a month, it has released campaign on “Girls Dosti (Friend) Whisper magic contest” where whisper brand was sponsored in India. 

Saina Nehwal a sports person of Tennis in India, who is endorsing brand Whisper. Whisper is targeting women/girls where they can feel comfortable at any place either sport, dancing, in night, on travel or on the way etc. 

Stay free Strategy: - If you consider as brand, that it is good brand and also well known, Stay free has also executed as ‘brand power’ strategy. It has also wide range and customized brand portfolio. But, still it has lack of build strong image like whisper. 

Recently, Stay free has launched new campaign few months ago “ Ab waqt hai badalne ka” (It is a time to change”). It is focus on “Change your thinking level; it is a time to change”. And it has been focus on Army women in campaign. Stay free is also sponsored with serial “Diya Aur Baati Hum” which is telecasting on Star Plus channel.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l7daDKeG-tM (whisper - possible)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mQZBa8z8vkk

 

If you will analyze both advertisement, you will find about Whisper and Stay free that:-

Whisper – possible Campaign where it is showing that all this is possible, nothing is impossible if Whisper with us. It gives you confidence and makes you happy. Saina Nehwal telling that 1 crore women are likes whisper.

Whereas Stay free campaign is showing “Change your thinking level and it is a time” means it also gives you confidence by other way.Still, it can not beat whisper, now it will be difficult to beat. 

And, now other brand “Sofy side walls” entered in Indian market which already leader in Asian countries like Japan, Taiwan, China and Thailand. Bollywood actress, Prachi Desai is endorsing “Sofy side walls” brand. Sofy brand is come with concept that it will get full of protection from both side of dipper and brand promotes itself as “Side walls”.

There is huge opportunity in Indian market for this segment. Because, still only three well known brands are playing in Indian market.

Let's see, wait n watch....

Power In Your Hand....What you say?

Yes, control in your hand, we are facing lots of innovation day by day since 3-4 years. Now, innovation came in Insect control market also where strong competition between Good Knight, mortein and All out brand. 

A great time was coil where people were using coil to avoid mosquito’s and at that time a brand which is known as” Kachhua chhap” (Turtle Sign), a very famous brand for killing mosquito ‘s in India. And then slowly it was made some innovation where few brands have been entered in market with “Mat” segment. “Mat” were using by middle class and upper class family also. It has been also an available “Aerosol “segment for killing mosquito as well as cockroach which includes brands like Hit, Mortein etc.

 

Again, it was made some innovation where brands were coming with vaporizer/ liquor refill segment. And All out brand were taking position as “Machharon ka Yamraj” (Devil of Mosquito’s), it became market leader in Vaporizer segment against Good knight. This vaporizer segment has been influenced on coil & mat segment also. Due to the smoke of coil, consumer were facing problem and All out have been taken first mover advantage in vaporizer market and became market leader.

And, it has been again innovation in Vaporizer to control on “huge mosquito's” as well as also innovation made by Good knight coil segment. Innovations has been made which are as under:-

(1)    Good Knight advanced has made innovation in Coil segment that it has been developed less smoke coil and no find any mosquito. So, less smoke and no mosquito.

      (2) All out came up with Power slider where you can control slider as per mosquito’s ratio. You can increase or decrease your power slider as per mosquito’s ratio.

     (3)  Good Knight Advanced brand came up with slider mode like push mode and active mode. So, you can change as per mosquito’s ratio. 

     (4)    Mortein has also been launched new brand “Mortein power guard “where it can kill both mosquito's & cockroach. And the focus on “Saat Guna Shakti Shaali” (Seven times energetic).

Insect control Market segment& it’s relatively share in %:-

       (1)    Mat 10 % 

       (2)    Coil 50 %

       (3)    Vaporizers 25 %

       (4)    Aerosol & Cream 15% 

The overall insect repellent market has been grown 27 billion at the end of 2009-10 and it is estimated to grow to a sizable market 39 billion by end of year 2014-15.

According to Nielsen survey July 2011, Good knight has been take over market share from All out and became leader in liquid vaporizer segment. Good Knight (Godrej) share was 43 % where as All out  (SCJ India) share was 42 % which was little over. Godrej has been executed good strategy by making continuous innovation and covered market share where All out was playing since many years in this segment.

Overall Godrej brand Good knight is growing continuously since many years compared to rivals. 

Bollybood actress Rani Mukharjee, Vidya Balan were endorsing brand Good Knight and then now came up with new campaign Good Knight advanced where two children are playing role with punch line “Push Karo, Khush Raho” (Do it push, Be Happy). This punch line is very effective which can take position in market.

You can watch advertisement where brand has been made innovation in vaporizers & coil:-.

(1) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jQPURPoaPbE (All out power slider)

(2) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c08g2YGfcpU (Good knight advanced Old advertisement)

(4) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ipV8v6AXfQ&feature=related (Good Knight Advanced Coil)

Such innovation is helpful because increase in mosquito’s ratio and people are facing many disease due to mosquito’s, as well we know about weather also now a days. So, more active insect control will definitely helpful. 

What you say….”Power In your Hand?
