Globally shopper knowledge is up, but so is confusion

Consumer confusion is YOUR biggest problem

“I look for what I need but I purchase what I trust”

Four Factors® breaks down the act of purchase to understand consumers’ decision making

Need the product?

Accept the ingredient?

Understand the benefit?

Trust the brand?

TRUST IS

Need Trust Choose Purchase

Help your consumer regain control

“I look for what I need but I purchase what I trust.”

Regain control ↔ Rebuild trust

• Consumers need and have ready-made belief systems to confront confusion

• Recognize rebuilding trust as an essential step towards giving consumers purchase control

• Use the power of visual communication to give your consumer the support they need

• Pull your consumer out of the “purchase paralysis”

Know your consumer and their belief systems

Brand Trust

Belief System

“How can I increase consumer acceptance and understanding?” Dare to Focus

How Focused Can Your Brand Dare To Be? The Zico Coconut Water Case…

Zico Founder & CEO, Mark Rampolla said, “I didn’t have a lot of money to launch with so I decided to go an inch wide and a mile deep.”

… The brand is now estimated at $350m / year in just 8 years.

He didn’t think about consumers, he thought about USERS.

People who would USE the product EVERY DAY.

He focused on ONE OCCASION – POST WORK OUT with the benefit of REPLENISHMENT.

Therefore sampled at the

END of runs /

END of bike rides /

END of workouts.

He focused on ONE LOCATION – New York City – and grew neighbourhood by neighbourhood

… with the mantra “narrow your focus” – so he focused more…

He focused on ONE ACTIVITY –

Bikram Yoga – 26 yoga moves in 90 mins in a super heated room.

… Then offer natural replenishment!

So… No marketing succeeds if it can’t find an audience that already wants to hear the message being told

The need to manage weight is big
