Procter & Gamble Canada (A): The Febreze Decision
內容大綱
Procter & Gamble reorganized its operations and created Global Business Units with Market Development Organizations (MDO) to augment the brand strategy work. This reorganization supported changes in culture that included reasonable risk taking. The marketing director of Procter & Gamble Canada was evaluating the potential success of launching a new product, Febreze, by using volume analysis resources available to her. The results indicated that Febreze would be a relatively small business opportunity, but the model could not take into account the various new MDO marketing tools that were not yet available. To justify the cost of launching the product, revenues would have to be significantly more than the volume model predicted. While trying to adjust to the new culture, the marketing director had to evaluate the risks associated with launching the product not knowing if the new tools would generate the additional volumes needed and the risk of losing the competitive edge if she postponed the launch.
