Case Study
Summary
‘Anticipative marketing is more risky than responsive marketing; companies may come into the market too early or too late, or even be totally wrong about thinking that such a market would develop.’
– Philip Kotler
Pure Blonde is a story of a brand that didn’t commit too early or late but in 18 months undertook a campaign to establish brand leadership in a new beer segment, overcoming longstanding prejudices and stereotypes many so-called ‘better for you’ beers have fallen foul of in the past.
Not only has the brand successfully cemented itself as the leading low carbohydrate beer in Australia, in doing so Pure Blonde has achieved equity results that today define the brand as an emerging icon.
