IBM’19 Decision Dilemma ● With consumer perceptions about mineral water changing, does Bisleri need to Reinvent itself.
● How do consumers respond to various marketing
strategies that Bisleri uses.
● Will Bisleri’s aggressive marketing and ‘playsafe’
campaign make it a $10 billion brand. Decision Alternative • Bisleri can continue with the aggressive marketing strategy and keep penetrating into various markets like they did for soft drinks. • They can analyze how consumers respond to their products and how it appeals them. They can use a strategy on the basis of this analysis. • They can target the playsafe campaign not just towards the youth but older age segments too because when it comes to water, safety becomes a need for everyone. Solution • Bisleri should go in for strategies to target customer segments based on appeal, convenient packaging and other characteristics according to the customer segment it is targeting. • Most people buy water while travelling as at home and offices there are water filters (Bisleri jumbo 18ltr). So they can promote Bisleri at transit areas where there will be a higher need for clean drinking water. • Hotels, institutions, corporates order their water requirements through dealers and for them safety is a priority. Bisleri can improve distribution channels and using their playsafe campaign they can depict the safety that Bisleri ensures.
