I brought three boxes from our team storage room, as I plan to send parcels to my sister's friends and the shop I bought a multitool from. As aforementioned, I have to send birthday presents for them. I eyeballed the size of boxes so that they won't be excessively large or too small to cram everything in. My speculation was quite precise, so I was able to leave only small room in the boxes. I had to make sure that I send the correct box to the right person, even if it wasn't that crucial, as presents for both of them are identical barring the cards for them. I wrote each one of the letter of their names on the boxes so that I can’t tell what belong to whom.

There are (3) reasons why I have chosen energy drinks as my NAB. First off, there is a growing market for energy drinks. Red Bull and Monster Beverage Corporation, together, form over 80% of domestic energy drinks volumes by estimates. Dollar sales for energy drinks grew almost 6% to $6.67 Billion in measured channels in 2013, which propelled sales growth for convenience stores (Team, 2014). A growing thirst for caffeinated “energy” drinks, which include the likes of Red Bull, Monster, and Rock star, has spurred a heart-thumping surge in sales. Globally, the energy drink industry has gone from a $3.8-billion business in 1999, to a $27.5-billion

This is an article about how Mr. Bikoff and his vitaminwater have evolved into a product that is able to get shelved with the juggernauts of the non-alcoholic beverage industry such as Pepsi and Coca-Cola. The name of J. Darius Bikoff 's company is called Glaceau and Glaceau has been on the verge, if not already started rivaling Pepsi and Coke. Bikoff believes that his company is not just another beverage and that it has somewhat of a different focus as opposed to Coke and Pepsi. When people think of Coke and Pepsi they think of refreshment before anything else. When people hear vitamins and water in one drink, hence the name vitaminwater, it gives off a sense of healthiness and that is just what Bikoff is trying to do.

Gatorades' revolutionary approach to managing branding for beverages has served to increase the total market size for this product category globally (Huang, Sarigöllü, 2012). Despite the continued widespread adoption of Gatorade as a healthy energy drink, the company has encountered resistance to its brand and the ingredients used for creating the many variations of Gatorade energy drinks (Tallon, 2009). Despite these setbacks the Gatorade brand continues to experience exceptional growth and stability over time.

Portland Drake Beverages (PDB) had acquired Crescent Pure, a non-alcoholic, all natural energy enhancing and hydrating functional beverage. Having organic ingredients as the bases of Crescent Pure beverages made the perfect acquisition for extending the PDB organic brand to more markets. These multiple attributes made the drink an attractive product for the consumer, but the necessity to position it, sparked a debate. Some people wanted to market it as an energy drink, while others wanted to market it as a hydrating drink. The VP of marketing, Sarah Ryan, thought that although Crescent Pure fit both of these categories, there was an alternative option. The third option would be to position the new beverages as healthy drinks, this would be a broader market positioning strategy, one that a transcendent product like Crescent Pure, could fulfill. The concern was to simultaneously position the drink in the most lucrative market, while also ensuring that the drinks attributes aligned with the market consumers’ needs.

Vitaminwater has experienced an overall decline in sales over the past 5 years. The All Measured Channels in Dollars illustrates that the growth and declines of other industry comparatives such as SoBe Life water. Propel which is Pepsi owned, demonstrated a similar decline to that of vitaminwater. Much of the initial decline of vitaminwater could have been justified by the growth of SoBe Life water, a Pepsi owned competitor. But then eventually SoBe Life Water began to take a very deep cut on sales as well. Understanding the comparisons in sales between these 3 competitors of enhanced water is crucial is establishing a new promotion plan, this results elude to the fact that it may not be vitaminwater specifically that is declining in popularity, but
