Refocusing brand and channels for growth

A global wine producer and marketer required a more focused go to market approach across its portfolio of brands to deliver improved profitability while growing brand equity.

What was the question?

Under a new CEO, there was a need to shift company focus from volume/case approach to value focus.

Given current brand economics, the Australian channel structure and consumer buying behaviour, how can the group focus its brands on the highest value and consumer fit?

What did we do?

  • Assessed and quantified the current market by channel and type
  • Researched consumer buying behaviour
  • Analysed brand economics
  • Designed and managed a decision-making tool to help management focus the right brands in the right channels with the right support
  • Worked with key management to implement the strategy across the organisation

What was the outcome?

A potential upside of +$50m profit was identified, the CEO and senior marketing executives signed off on the strategy and direction, incentives and measures were aligned to the strategy, the management tool was integrated into reporting to maintain the re-focused approach and investment was put against the key brands.
