    Clean Edge Razor

    • 4329 Words
    • 18 Pages

    On August 9, 2010, a group of executives from Paramount Health and Beauty Company (Paramount) sat in a research room intently observing a dozen men shaving on the other side of a two-way mirror. The subjects were testing out Paramount’s newest nondisposable razor, Clean Edge, and discussing the experience. The verdict was extremely encouraging. The majority of men felt it was the closest, cleanest, and smoothest shave they had encountered. Clean Edge’s improved design provided superior performance by utilizing a vibrating technology to stimulate hair follicles and lift the hair from the skin, allowing for a more thorough shave.1 Jackson Randall, product manager for Clean Edge, sat in the darkened observation room considering the positioning strategy for this new product. He had led the new product development process and was now grappling with how to position the product for the upcoming launch. All executives at Paramount agreed Clean Edge should be priced in the super-premium segment of the market. However, some executives believed Clean Edge should be launched as a mainstream entry within that segment, with the broad appeal of being the most effective razor available on the market. Others felt a more differentiated niche strategy, targeting the most intensely involved super-premium consumers, would be optimal. Paramount had decided to launch this technologically advanced product into the men’s market first where the company had the strongest presence, with an introduction into the women’s market following soon after. As Stuart Quimby, director of Paramount’s U.S. Grooming Division, left the observation room, he asked Randall to provide a recommendation to the executive steering committee by the end of the week for product positioning, brand name, and marketing budget allocations for the launch. Randall felt he understood this new product better…

    Clean Edge Razor Case

    In the last decade, the industry has experienced significant growth in the super premium segment and has catered various product innovations and new technologies. The executives of the company have come to a consensus that the Clean Edge razor should be priced in the super premium segment. But they are still sceptical on how to position the product. One strategy is to release the product into the mainstream razor market within the super premium segment and position it as the most effective razor available. Another is to introduce it as a niche product targeting the most intensely involved super premium consumers who look for superior skin care products. Both the positioning strategies have their own pros and cons. Also, clean edge…

    Gillette Case Analysis

    • 1134 Words
    • 5 Pages

    The key marketing challenge for Gillette is the company’s ever expanding product line. In the past few years, the Gillette brand has grown considerably. The company has released many new high-performance grooming products for men. The challenge in introducing a large number of new products in a short period of time is being able to properly market each one. It is difficult to release and market one new product, but if many products are released at once, especially “high-performance” products, this marketing becomes much more difficult. In addition, with the recent downturn in the worldwide economy, companies are having an increasingly hard time convincing consumers to switch to a new product that is most likely more expensive than the current product. “High performance” means higher pricing. Consumers are looking for a good deal on their current products or are switching to cheaper products. They have to take a gamble to move to a more expensive, different product to try it out. The product may be better for them but that does not matter if they do not try to product to find that out.…
