New Marketing Model
Gone are the days when a big TV campaign or sponsorship alone could drive true brand growth; consumers make their choices based on a combination of PRICE, TASTE, BRAND, HEALTH and PROVENANCE.
TASTE is now a more important purchase driver than brand.
If the right connections are made - through training, customer service, deeper brand and product understanding, careful sponsorship and event management - the brand can actually form a much stronger emotional bond with the consumer.
