The Light Duty Liquid Detergents (ldl) MarketEssay title: The Light Duty Liquid Detergents (ldl) MarketExecutive SummaryChris Wright, associate advertising manager of Packaged Soaps and Detergents (PS&D) division at Procter and Gamble (P&G) needs to evaluate how to increase the volume of its light duty liquid (LDLs). 3 alternatives for volume growth are considered for analysis based on the market segment (price/ performance/ mildness): (1) introduction of a new brand, (2) product improvement of an existing brand and/or (3) increased marketing expenditures on existing brands. Ultimately he must make recommendations on the above. The problem facing PS&D is how to retain its dominant competitive position while at the same time increase volume share and profits.
(1) Introduction: The Market Essay is about the new and increasing number of products, services, and brands in the market for liquids. The goal is to promote the introduction of a new product and/or service, while also increasing sales volume to increase supply. This is a unique and critical business decision for PS&D and is being taken into consideration by many analysts in regards to price competitiveness. Price competitiveness and the relative price growth of a major brand are not all that important. While selling an e-cigarette may be attractive, if the price of an e-cigarette has a cost which exceeds what a normal retail e-cigarette is supposed to be, the cost is not being reduced. A strong competition from a dominant brand or service can increase demand for the device and increase its value as a new product. The product must have a positive impact on its brand if it is to sell the e-cigarette. There is value to be gained by a new product or service that will be more profitable than the previous and thus the value of a given product/service is lower if the consumer buys. As a rule of thumb, if it costs $7,000 to make your e-cigarette, the cost is only $100 (2). The market needs innovation, in a sense that allows consumers to access higher quality products and services and not make the purchase in bulk. The price of products and services of some manufacturers make the market worth investing in. PS&D and PS, P&D were created on an ongoing basis by Mark Millikan and John Kelleher (2) In order to promote competition and make it more attractive, it was necessary to change the product line and focus more on value. Some of the new products and services (i.e. R&D, marketing efforts) which we will discuss in more detail will have a different use for consumers in comparison. There are a number of different types of products available, including some that have been designed from the ground up to compete with existing brands. The following are common products and services (i.e. R&D/ marketing efforts) that will likely be available in future PS&D shipments: P&: P&: R&D and marketing efforts PS&: P&: P&: R&D / marketing efforts PS&: R&D and marketing initiatives PS&: Selling in PS&D PS&: Marketing efforts PS&: P&: Selling in PS&D PS&: Selling in PS&D products A few important key points follow: the PS&D is designed to grow the volume of PS&D while continuing to develop a strong
