Susan is working on the advertising plan for her company's shampoo named Silkience.
She has conducted a SWOT analysis and learned that her company enjoys a strong
financial position and has good working relations with the resellers of its brands. The
primary target customers for this brand are women between the ages of 35 and 50, and
demographic analysis indicates that this age demographic will grow in double digits
over the next 10 years. Silkience targets women who may be having concerns about
graying hair. It is a gentle shampoo that will not wash out color, especially
semi-permanent color that women of this age tend to use. However, Susan also learned
that the target customers do not perceive her company's brand of shampoo as a brand
for them but rather for a younger consumer because previous ads tended to use
younger-looking models. There was also nothing in the previous advertising campaigns
that really explained the benefits of the brand, such as suggesting that it was gentler for
semi-permanent-colored hair.
Massiel, the account planner for Silkience, investigated all of the research on the brand,
looking for possible reasons that the target market has not responded and for ideas
about how they could be motivated to respond in the desired way. Which of the
following was Massiel doing?
A) perceptual mapping
B) repositioning
C) insight mining
D) feature analyzing
E) brand positioning
