CASE DISCUSSION: JC PENNEY’S FAIR AND
SQUARE STRATEGY
1. What were the problems being faced by the Department
stores specifically JCP ? How were other retailers coping with
it?
EDLP HI-LOW
Suitable for mass/essential Suitable for non essential
segments segments
Price conscious customers Value seekers
Supermarkets/Big Box Departmental stores
No sales or coupons Stores offer coupons/ sale
events to bring prices down
Product assortment – ‘Low High brow assortment
brow”
Lower marketing budget Requires heavy marketing
spends
24
3.Should a retailer who is not a market leader in the
segment lead a Price change strategy like JCP did with Fair
and Square? Give reasons for your stand
So, a non market leader should not lead a price change strategy!
25
4.If you were in Johnson’s position, what would
you have done differently?
26
5.Do JC Penney’ store locations have any
bearing on the pricing it should follow?
27
6.Why did customers fail to see value in
Johnson’s new pricing structure?
YES NO
Johnson ignored the company heritage He needed more time to implement
and treated it like a startup such a huge change
Ignored existing customer base He was trying to change customer
alienating them with the changes and mindset which is difficult and a long
not attracting newer customers term game

Issues...
Customer service is intangible
It is inconsistent
Sales without Customer Service is like stuffing money into a pocket full of holes.

In business you get what you want by giving other people what they want.

Customer evaluation of service quality – on perceptions!
Although your customers won’t love you if you give bad service, your competitors will.

Customer Service – The GAPS* Model (aka ServQual
Model)
Service Gap- mismatch between expectation and perception
of customer service
GAP Model used to address disconnect between customer’s
expectation of service vs perception vs actual service
received
Customer Gap vs Provider Gap
Customer Gap : Expected service vs Perceived Service
Reasons – Miscommunication, Over-expectation, lack of awareness
about actual service provided
Service expectations a function of previous experience, WOM, price
paid
Customers don’t expect you to be perfect. They do expect you to fix things
when they go wrong.
*Conceptual model of service quality – Parasuraman, Zeithaml, Berry 11

Integrated Marketing Communication
Case in point : DIESEL
In 1978 Renzo Rosso started Diesel with the intention of creating the world’s most
innovated denim. Amidst a worldwide oil crisis, during which diesel was considered to
be an alternative fuel, Renzo liked the idea of his brand to be known as an alternative
jeans brand, in contrast to the prevalent casual wear giants that had come before.
Renzo intended to reach the entire world since the brand’s very inception, making the
word “diesel,” an international term pronounced equally all over the world, the perfect
name for his endeavor.
Since its start, Diesel has used “For Successful Living” as a slogan for the brand’s
DNA. Through a long and storied history of strong, ironic and playful campaigns,
Diesel has become a leader in advertising as well as in fashion. Where the world
zigged, Diesel zagged, and in the 35 years since its founding, the brand still embraces
the same ethos.
Diesel has over 5,000 points of sale worldwide with over 400 monobrand stores, 37 of
those in the US. Between 1978 and 2012, the company has produced more than
2,000 different washes of denim.
