The last appeal that an advertiser will attempt to make is that of logos, or the logical appeal. Advertisers know that price is not the true appeal to all buyers and excluding it from their ad not only allows merchants to adjust the price by market but also allows the readers to do more research into the best product choice. In this ad, the visual aid points the reader to a small clock. This clock seems meaningless and out of place until the reader checks the statement that Crest lasts five times longer. However, claims of longer lasting fresh breath may not make a believer out of all consumers. For this reason, Crest shouts out, on their web site, that all their products are

Over the last few decades, American culture has been forever changed by the huge amount of advertisement the people are subjected to. Advertising has become such an integral part of society, many people will choose whether or not they want to buy a product based only on their familiarity with it rather than the product’s price or effectiveness.

In the case of product development, product tests were made on Scope, product development department has demonstrated that Scope reduced plaque better than brushing alone because of the antibacterial ingredients in it.

Both competition and market size are of major importance when one explores the positioning of a product. In the case of Crescent Pure, this is vital as Ryan must determine the level of competition that will be faced if the product is marketed as either an energy or sport drink. In the case of an energy product, it should be noticed that there is heavy market dominance by Together, Freight, Razor, Torque and Steller, as they account for roughly 85% of the market. Despite this, it should be seen that the average price point for a 5oz can is $2.99 which is notably higher than Crescent’s $2.75 pricing. Additionally, the market size for sport drinks is of particular interest as it is estimated to grow to $8.5 billion by the year 2013. This, coupled with the fact that the market had grown 40% between the period 2010 – 2012, makes this sector of particular interest to PDB.

Every year since 2006, however, has seen Lucozade Sport regain market share, firmly consolidating its position of market dominance in Ireland. This trend endorses the quality of Lucozade Sport’s marketing, as it is succeeding in fighting off stiff competition. “Functional drinks is dominated by Lucozade brand, with Lucozade Energy and Lucozade Sport recording a combined volume (market)  share of  54%  in 2009” as stated in Euromonitor International (2011).
