Competition Analysis

Competition Analysis

“Traditionally, advertisement agencies created advertisements and controlled the advertising for the brand,” (Advertising by Design: Page 12) Yes, but ultimately the consumers likes and dislikes drive the agencies to create their products advertisements. Healthy competition, between companies, drives which way the advertisement is going." There is no exit from social responsibility-everyone is accountable."(Page 12) Knowing your competitions is key. Captian Crunch when targeted towards woman ages 21-35 the key competition is Kellogg’s brand, Kashi Go Lean, and General Mills cereal. They all offer the main idea of health and well being. They all have their own spin on each product which is “their brand campaign.”(Below) The challenges these brands face is their lack on taste. Even though they lack on taste they improve themselfs by the life style they offer. Being heart healthy, loosing weight, and putting a smile on your face. "The more people work with the brand, the more those people will use as well as feel loyal to that brand."(Page 12).When eating these cereals consumers are willing to compromise on taste, to be able to feel how the bran promises. "What is unethical is almost easier to identify than what is ethical."(Page112)
