25. Q:1 Use the standardization versus adaptation arguments to support Philips
strategies worldwide. What are some of its advantages of its new
standardization strategy?
26. Standardization and international uniformity has many advantages.
People can expect the same level of quality of any specific brand
anywhere around the world.
Standardization supports positive consumer perceptions of a product .If a
company enjoys strong brand identity and a strong reputation, choosing a
standardized approach might work to its benefit.
Positive word-of-mouth means an increase in sales around the globe.
It also includes cost reduction that gives economies of scale. Selling
large quantities of the same, non-adapted product and buying components
in bulk can reduce the cost-per-unit.
Other advantages related to economies of scale include improved
research and development, marketing operational costs, and lower costs
of investment.
Standardization is a reasonable strategy at a time where trade barriers are
coming down.
Following a standardized approach helps companies aim focus on a
uniformed marketing mix specifically focusing on one single product,
leaving enough room for quality improvement
27. Q:2 Offers suggestions to Philips regarding the strategies that it can use to create a
unified, resonant global brand?
28. Q:3 SOME MAY ARGUE THAT PHILIPS IS A PAN-EUROPEAN BRAND THAT IS TRYING TO
MAKE INROADS INTO THE US. CRITICALLY EVALUATE THIS STATEMENT?
Philips make $100 million dollar in advertising ,sponsorships movie tie-ins
and retail promotions worldwide to boost brand awareness. Philips
embarked its star campaign in an attempt to create a more human,
imaginative and seductive brand image. Using dynamic state of the arts
product, the Philips campaign was able to reach consumers on a very
personal manner, thus gaining their trust, loyalty and brand preference. The
campaign resonated very well with its target market, well educated
,independent and carefree consumers.
It has its five years sponsorship of the U.S. soccer Federation. This help
Philips to reach its young target and more female consumers. Philips thus
has 30 second air spots on ABC and ESPN during soccer broadcasts, as well
as presence on the stadium billboards, and logo visibility on all training kits
and Philips branded goal cameras are highly visible.
