    Nike Analysis

    Johnson also opened the first retail store in California and is credited with providing Nike with its name. In 1971 the swoosh trademark was created for a minimal fee of only thirty five dollars by a graphic design student named Carolyn Davidson. By 1972, new athletic footwear was introduced by Blue Ribbon Sports and called Nike. The Blue Ribbon Sports Company had business relations with Onitsuka Tiger for nearly ten years and in 1972 the two hit a bump in the road. Due to a dispute over distribution there was an eventual sever in business dealings between the two companies. That same year the Nike line of footwear made its debut in February at a Chicago sporting goods show. At the 1972 Olympic trials Nike “moon shoes” were introduced featuring the new waffle sole. Along with these new shoes, t-shirts were also being worn bearing the Nike logo. This new brand began to spark an interest. Later that year, Nike signed its first endorsement contract with the Romanian tennis star, Ilie Nastase.…

    Our culture can be harmful when we waste time. An example According to the researchers studies of this article of four recent broadcasts, the average amount of time the ball is in play on the field during an NFL game is about 11 minutes. In other words the next 174 minutes of the next NFL game you watch will be consumed by commercials, replays, time between plays, cheerleaders, halftime shows, headshots, huddling of teams, and commentators. Americans will sit in front of a TV for typically 4 hours to watch a hitting match, when they could be doing more positive things in their lives. Things like, spending time with family, getting an education, or just bettering your life. This is promoting an unhealthy lifestyle because Americans are not doing the appropriate things to have a successful life. .…

    Skittles Marketing Plan

    • 2348 Words
    • 10 Pages

    Skittles is a well-known, long-standing brand that has pleased consumers for generations. However, it is our contention that the name’s growth is stagnating, and needs to be revitalized based upon a core marketing goal: bring Skittles from simply a candy – something one consumes on a whim and forgets about – to a brand that engenders both value and feeling for consumers. With such a focus, the objective is to influence the seemingly minor consumer choice between confections in vending machines and on store shelves by linking a positive and pleasing emotion to the image of the brand. The intention is to achieve realistic, long-term financial goals, which will be controlled through measuring actual results against initial projections. The overall target for the marketing return on investment (ROI) is a minimum of 1.2% within two years. Furthermore, plans to expand the Skittles product line through seasonality and a joint venture with Absolut Vodka will pull in a wider variety of our target market. This addition will attract various ages and personalities from the target segment to the Skittles brand, and will ultimately grow the distribution and sales of Skittles.…

    I chose to do my cable network analysis paper on ESPN. I chose this network because I use ESPN’s services more than five times a day through the media channels of television, internet, or radio.

ESPN is based in Bristol, Connecticut and was launched in 1979 and now ranks second in the top cable networks with over 90 million subscribers (ESPN.com).
