takes for granted should be eliminated?
Which attributes should be reduced below industry standards?
Which attributes should be increased to above industry standards?
Which new attributes should be created that the industry has never offered?

7.From SBU to Corporate Marketing
Address corporate strategy challenges:
Portfolio Choices: what business to be in?
Portfolio relationships: what value should our businesses add to each other?
Parenting skills: what value does the corporate center adds?
Leverage Product Platforms

Exploit Brand Platforms

Extend Channel Platforms
Ford combining dealership of luxury brands (Volvo, Land Rover, Jaguar)
Nurture Customers as Platforms
Amazon adding categories rapidly
Develop Markets as platforms

Target Growing Masses in Emerging Markets
slower birth rate & ageing population in North America, Japan and Western Europe (Asia/Africa/Latin America can drive 10-15% Growth)
Searching for Marketing Synergies
Project Shakti
Trains Women in village with less than 2,000 population
Women become rural sellers/distributors of HUL
By selling HUL products in 4-5 neighboring villages, they can earn appx 1000 per month
Executive recruit must spend eight weeks in villages of India
Developed a pool of emerging market experts who understand poor as a business opportunity rather than a problem
