The company exemplifies the typical branding success story. Since its inception, Red Bull’s successful market strategy and ways of penetrating the lucrative energy drink market has demonstrated the company’s ability to think outside the competitive box through its innovative branding and sales and distribution strategy. Since the targeted’ age range is quite young, Red Bull employed unique methods to attract its customers. Amongst these non-conventional advertising routes, Red Bull used marketing « below the line », « buzz marketing », and « tribal marketing » (Brocooli, April 2012).

Energy drinks consumers are generally bellow 35 years of age. The industry targets teenagers, young adults and athletes. Workers are also included in the market segment for this product. As regards to customers description, recent studies has pointed out that 65% of energy markets are male (Energy Drinks Market, n.d).Consumers are usually single with an average income (Central Information Organization, 2009, p.8). Nowadays, energy drinks are very popular among teenager students. As confirmed by Bahrain Central Information Organization webpage (CIO), students’ rate is 174.98 per 1000 population.

This report was written to assess the company Red Bull and their energy drink Red Bull Energy Drink, in a manner in which the market/industry, environment, competitors, customers, and the brand were all analysed by using secondary research. A SWOT analysis was also conducted. Through this research and analysing, it was found that Red Bull is the dominating leader in the energy drink market and sells the most units of its product worldwide. However the company does have close competitors in Monster Energy Drink and Rock star Energy Drink. Although Red Bull has massive internal strengths in being leader in the market share and sponsorship of events, it also has weaknesses in lack of innovation and diversity. Their

If one has to analyze the profitability scheme of Red Bull Energy Drink, perhaps it can be safely said that it is in a very uncompromising situation. First and foremost, the stiff competition have paved the way for the emergence of many small time players (Helm 2005). With every bottled drink that aims to steal the limelight nowadays, Red Bull should capitalize more on its creativity and ingenuity—this is of course, in relation to advertising and marketing. The company should never disregard that Coca Cola and Pepsi are still top competitors (Helm 2005). More so, even if the two share equally different components as with Red Bull, still, it is evident that the two continue to partake into the market share. Meanwhile, the notion that energy drinks offers no variety in taste is an important marketing aspect that the company should take into full consideration (Laing 2005). In 2001, Pepsi had already released AMP Energy Drink (“Amp Energy Drink” n.d). It is the company’s maidens venture into the energy drink arena. Evidently, AMP’s raison d’ etre is to capitalize on Mountain Dew’s established image. The concept would be to introduce something new, yet very familiar (“Amp Energy Drink” n.d).

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).

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.

The target consumer market that should be chosen for a new energy beverage brand is males between the ages of 15 and 26. Marketing to this age group falls between the 12 to 34 year olds that estimate to make up 70 percent of the energy drink market (Kerin & Peterson, 2010). This would allow them to still market to the heavy users but would be able to narrow it down to a specific age group within the market. Marketing to this group would allow you to focus on groups such as high school & college students, athletes, and young adults entering the work force or newly parents. The students that would be using the energy products can use it for staying up to study or to help wake up and be alert in class. Athletes could use this product for refocusing after a workout or practice so they would crash. Young adults could use this energy drink for staying up in there social life late at night or to make sure they are awake in the morning for that new job to impress the boss. A different market would be the parents of a newborn. Markets like this could be beneficial because parents want to stay up to feed their new born and make sure everything is okay during the day especially after a sleepless night or two. Marketing to specific target markets helps companies clarify what the product is used for and how it can be beneficial instead of having it say we

Whereas the mission defines the scope of a business or business unit and the goals define its strategic performance dimensions, its business unit competencies determine the means for achieving success.

In Brazil, there is not as much of a market for energy drinks as there is in places like the United States. Still, introducing 5-hour energy shots to Brazil could cause the desire for energy drinks to grow in that country. That would open up an entirely new market for energy drinks that could make millions or even billions of dollars for companies that manufacture energy drinks throughout the world. In order to clearly understand how marketing will take place in Brazil and the issues that must be addressed, there are four specific areas that will be considered here. These will be the social-cultural environment of Brazil, the economic environment, the political environment, and the technological environment. Since all of those areas play a role in how an energy drink could be marketed and how much success it might have, they all must be discussed before any decisions are made.

Energy drinks have outperformed the growth in carbonates in the last few years, and present a substantial opportunity for beverage manufacturers to extract further growth from their sales. There are many driving forces of change and critical success factors in the energy drink industry. Companies such as Coke Cola and Pepsi contend with criticism from health officials due to the excessive caffeine in most high-energy drinks. However, before the 2000’s consumers were accustomed to carbonated soft drinks as the traditional beverage. The shift to an energy drink, sports drink, and vitamin enhanced waters increased sales while becoming an alternative beverage choice for a fast-paced mobile society. Therefore, this industry endures many

Red bull has dominated the energy market for a decade now. Its popularity and stylish design has allowed it to be charged at a premium price. Red Bull is a stylish and vibrant energy drink that is priced at least five times higher than the ordinary soft drink. Red Bull strongly believes that it offers its consumers something more than a beverage; it believes that it offers them a ‘way of life.’ It provides its consumers with energy and related brainpower to make the most of their time. Due to all of the above reasons, Red Bull can afford to price itself at such a high price. Therefore, it is important that Red Bull chooses those markets where the people have the financial capacity to purchase their product
