SWOT Analysis
Target Market
• Crush targeted at teens and households w/ children at home
• Individuals ages 13- to- 29
Product
• Crush soft drink brand• Sold in cans and bottles
• In 1989, Orange Crush controlled 7.5% of the orange-flavored soft drinks category
Place
• Supermarkets, convenience stores, vending machines, fountain service, and thousands of small retail outlets
• Supermarkets account for 40% of carbonated soft drink industry sales

• Sunkist: newspapers, spot television, outdoor billboards, and some syndicated television
Promotion cont
• Coupons, on-package promotions, and sweepstakes
• Sponsorship of local events, plastic cups, baseball hats, and t-shirts
• “Display Loader”: part of
point-of-purchase display– Ice chests, insulated can coolers
Price
• Concentrate pricing differed very little among competitors– Typically less than one-cent difference
BCG (Boston Consulting Group) Model
• For portfolio planning– A company should maintain a balance of high
growth and low growth products• To prioritize which products within the
company product mix should get more funding and attention
• To classify products
BCG Matrix (Model)
The Perfect Portfolio
• High-growth:– New product– High effort and high resources (to build up)– Expected to bring high profit in the future
• Low-growth:– Established product known by the market– Characteristics do not change a great deal– Customers know what they are getting– Price does not change a great deal– Limited marketing budget– “the milking cow” bringing constant cash flow
Four Categories
• Star: (high growth, high market share)– Leaders within the
business but still need a great deal of support (promotion and placement)
– If the market share is maintained the product will eventually become a cash cow
• Star: CRUSH (orange)– Crush is #1 in market
coverage of orange soda among competitors from 1985-1989
– Since acquisition in 1989, promotion and advertising is being focused on maintaining this market share
Four Categories
• Question Mark:(high growth, low market share)– Products are in growing
markets but have low market share
– Essentially new products that buyers have yet to discover
– Strategy is to get consumers to adopt these products
– High demand and low return due to low market share
– Must increase the market share quickly or they become dogs
• Question Mark: CRUSH (flavored line extensions)– This is a market that is
growing but flavored soda (other tan orange)holds a small % of market share
• 1.1%
– Few competitors– Although people choose
Crush flavored soda due to few competitors the return is low due to low market share
– The goal is to get more consumers to drink flavored soda and become a star
Four Categories
• Cash Cow: (low growth, high market share) IDEAL PRODUCTS– High market share in a
mature market– With a competitive
advantage the products have high profit margin with high cash flow
– Due to low growth, promotion, and placement investments are low
– Increase in infrastructure may improve efficiency and increase cash flow
• Cash Cow: GINGER ALE (Canada Dry)– Introduced in 1870 – Constant growth in a
mature market maintaining the top spot in sales of Ginger Ale in the United States
– Investment in this product are low
– With increase in promotion and advertising consumer awareness may increase cash flow
Four Categories
• Dog: (low growth, low market share)– In low product market with
low market share– These products should be
avoided and minimized– Expensive turn around
plans do not help
• Dog: Strategy to avoid these products– Focus on the flavored line
extensions of Crush• With the small market share
going toward flavored soda any investment in the infrastructure of these products will create a negative profit margin
BCG Problems
• Limited knowledge of other products or how original data was collected
• High market share does not always indicate profitability
• Low share products may also be profitable• Model does not show overall market
growth• Market growth is not the only indicator of
market attractiveness
Positioning
• Market share has decreased 10% in 4 years
• Decline Stage• Cadbury could discontinue Crush and
focus on Sunkist, but…
