The dedication to heavy advertising is targeting Jameson's sales to nearly doubling to 3.5m cases by 2OO9 (BeverageBusiness.com, 2006). This is no new concept with the brand: in the mid 199Os the hoary "Spirit of Ireland" campaign helped Jameson become the world's fastest growing international spirit and fastest growing whiskey. Then the "What's The Rush?" campaign stressed the importance of people stretching out to enjoy themselves with friends in the face of increasingly frenetic lifestyles (BeverageBusiness.com, 2006). Jameson grew more than 2O% in the US in 2OO5, with sales in travel retail up 16%. South Africa grew by 4O%; Russia's sales doubled, as it did in 2O+ principal markets worldwide (led by Ireland, USA, UK, France, and Spain). Last year, the company put 4O million euro (US $5O.8 million) behind Jameson, launching the ongoing "Beyond the Obvious" campaign (BeverageBusiness.com, 2006). The positioning statement I think would be “ For young hard working real men who enjoy a fine whiskey Jameson Irish Whiskey is the beverage of choice.” Advertising objective is to build the brand year around, and not just on St. Patrick’s Day (BeverageBusiness.com, 2006.) The three main objectives are to build brand awareness, at 3O% awareness it's still a discovery brand; strengthen brand positioning; and create consumer brand relationship (BeverageBusiness.com, 2006).

"Cooley Distillery: The Independent Spirit of Ireland" is a "David and Goliath" case surrounding Cooley Distillery, which is the only independently owned Irish whiskey distiller in the world. Located in Ireland, the company has managed to survive strong competition in the oligopolistic category of Irish whiskey in the global spirits industry for 25 years. The non-listed public company has remained a niche player despite gaining a staggering reputation for quality and innovation in its offerings. One of the biggest problems faced by the company is that in all these years, Cooley Distillery has never managed to pay any dividends to its 290 shareholders and John Teeling, the founder and chairman
Producing and selling high-quality products is the company’s marketing philosophy. Although Brown-Forman was the fifth-largest distiller in the United States, it spent a lot of money in advertising support in order to build best brands in the world. In a while, the whiskey market was in a depression. Brown- Forman faced a big challenge to overcome this period. In order to expand its product lines, Brown-Forman chose several of products which has fast growth in the alcohol
This is an attempt to let the reader know that this is not your ordinary cognac to the. By implying that this liquor appeals to mainly the elite walk of life. These three elements combined to make a target audience, business professionals in their mid twenties to thirties. One may ask why this group why not try to appeal to working class citizens too. The answer is easy as the average mid sized bottle of cognac cost forty plus dollars. At this price Hennessy is not selling it?s product to the working class but is targeting higher income indivuals. The reason that they have younger people in this advertisement is a universal standard. The up and coming generation will be the ones to buy this product for the next ten to twenty years so those are the people they must reach now. Moreover it will build name recognition for the up and coming buyer, this ad is well scripted in regards to the target audience. The company knows that not every one can buy this product therefore they have targeted a select group who can afford their product.

They brought their music and cuisine with them. Some of the food staples included potatoes, oatmeal and barley. The barley was used in the making of whiskey; oatmeal was their breakfast and potatoes (they would starve without their potatoes). They also enjoy soups, beef, and short-bread. The music of the Scotch-Irish can be found primarily in the Appalachian Mountains. The region is ripe with folk songs of the culture. The Scotch-Irish are a clannish lot meaning they would travel with their clans and settle in the same area. (Everyculture) This also allowed the Scotch-Irish to keep their culture intact.

The Teeling 26 Year Old single malt whiskey is a unique Irish whiskey that has been partly matured in white Burgundy wine casks. Double distilled at a distillery that is more renowned for its triple-distilled single malts, this started off in an American white oak ex-Bourbon cask and the addition of wine cask ageing has added some glorious fruit characters that are very much in harmony with the whiskey. One must note that availability is limited as just a thousand individually numbered bottles
Cooley Distillery, found in Dundalk, Co. Louth, was the first new whiskey distillery to be set up in Ireland in over 100 years and it is Ireland’s youngest, smallest and only independent whiskey distillery (“The Cooley Distillery”). John Teeling, a successful business enthusiast, investor, and Harvard Business school scholar, who found great interest and opportunity in Irish whiskey, established it in 1987. Cooley began distilling in 1989. The origins of Irish whiskey dates back to around 600 A.D., when Irish monks brought the alembic and the secret of distillation from the Middle East, according to the history of Irish Distillers. The Irish name “uisce beatha” translates to “water
Because these two countries have similar social classes, lifestyles and gender relations, many outsiders confuse specific traditions practiced individually as parallel customs. Ireland and Scotland coincide in practicing Catholicism. Surprisingly, Ireland and Scotland have many similarities such as national icons, the Gaelic tongue, which was “brought to Scotland in the Middle Ages by Fergus Mor” (Sayers), and an almost unhealthy popularity of whiskey. Due to the size of Europe and the minute distance between England, Scotland, and Ireland, the officially proven origin of the Jig differs from source to source.
Strategic message: In the advertisement, Bud light promises to offer a different drinkability. This strategic message is very weak, because I didn’t see any relevance between “drinkability” and “fitting into different occasions”, making the message disconnected
Products or services need to be bought. Without marketing, this is generally not going to happen. Marketing is a planned set of phases, either simple or complex, or in between. Marketing plans include an overview, mission statement, SWOT analysis, marketing objectives and strategies, and, lastly, implementation, evaluation, and control. This is the exploration of such a marketing plan for a new product line of a non-alcoholic craft beer, “Mountain Brew Review” (MBR), created under the umbrella of parent company, Molson Coors (MC).
Alcoholism is a prominent substance abuse issue in Western society. The treatment method of controlled drinking as opposed to abstinence is a continuing cause of controversy in alcohol research to this day. The US is different from Europe in its acceptance of controlled drinking as a goal of treatment: “in the US alcohol dependence is typically depicted as a ‘recurring disease’ and the ‘successful abstainer’ as a ‘recovering’ though never ‘recovered’ alcoholic” (Coldwell, 2005). Depending on the alcohol abuse patient’s individual characteristics, either controlled drinking or abstinence is chosen as a treatment.
