Case Study

© Bharati Vidyapeeth’s Institute of Computer Applications and Management, New Delhi-63,by Nitish Pathak 1.

‹#›

Case Study-1

• General Motors Company's (GM) foray into China was a successful one. Of all the leading auto markets, China was the highest growth market for GM as could be seen from the fact that it sold 2.35 million vehicles in FY 2010, 29 percent more than in 2009. This was the first time in the 102-year old history of GM where it had sold more cars and trucks in China than in the US. Going forward, GM China had set ambitious plans to garner a market share of 14 percent and produce 5 million units by 2015. Its decision to launch a new brand, the Baojun 630, in 2011 was viewed as an attempt by the company to target first time car buyers living in Tier II and Tier III markets in China and also to compete against domestic car manufacturers in China.

© Bharati Vidyapeeth’s Institute of Computer Applications and Management, New Delhi-63,by Nitish Pathak 1.

‹#›

Case Study-1

• Some experts opined that GM China's changing strategy was a bid to cope with the change in the industry structure in the rapidly growing Chinese auto market. According to a September 2010 draft plan by the Ministry of Information and Industry (MII) in China, foreign automakers in China were required to transfer their technology to their Chinese partner. The plan was in stark contrast to the partnership deals the foreign automakers had with their Chinese partners. The partners had a 50:50 stake in the JV where the foreign partner could keep its intellectual property and technology with it while the local partner would offer it market access.

© Bharati Vidyapeeth’s Institute of Computer Applications and Management, New Delhi-63,by Nitish Pathak 1.

‹#›

Case Study-1

• The proposed plan received mixed reactions with some foreign automakers feeling that the move was a "technology shakedown" as they were forced to share their technology with their domestic partners and eventually their rivals.

Moreover, industry analysts felt that low-cost brands such as Baojun could become a threat to GM's existing brands. They were of the opinion that the move to go downmarket to target the middle-class segment could jeopardize the brand image of GM which enjoyed the reputation of launching quality brands in the Chinese automobile market. This case is meant for MBA/MS level students as part of their Strategic Management/ International Business Curriculum.

Case Study-1

Issues:

» Understand the reasons for GM’s success in China, and the growing importance of the Chinese market for GM’s overall strategy.

» Discuss and debate whether the Chinese automobile industry was witnessing structural changes and what GM could do about it.

» Understand the threats to GM China’s long-term success and how it could overcome these threats while taking advantage of the opportunities provided by China.

Case Study-2

• This case is about the various advertising campaigns undertaken by Cadbury Dairy Milk at different points of time to achieve certain objectives. Cadbury was the market leader in chocolates in India and it also was a very popular brand which enjoyed the trust of its consumers. It already had a market share of around 70% in 2011 in chocolates with its flagship brand Cadbury Dairy Milk alone having around 30 % of the share of the Indian chocolate market.

The company had come a long way since the 1990s when Indian consumers associated Diary Milk as a product meant for children. To change this, Cadbury came up with a series of campaigns to target the adult group, starting with the 'Real taste of life' campaign, to encourage people to bring out the child in them.

‹#›

Case Study-2

• Then they moved on to social acceptance theme with the line- 'Those who want to eat, will find a reason for it'.

Through this, Dairy Milk was able to gain an acceptance for chocolates among the adult audiences for consumption. It even won a lot of awards for its campaigns which went on to become a huge success; like the ‘Real Taste of Life' campaign. After this, Dairy Milk sought to achieve the difficult objective of replacing the traditional Indian sweets and desserts with their chocolates. For this, Cadbury ran various campaigns under 'Kuch meetha ho jaye' (Let's have something sweet), including two campaigns parallelly 'Shubh Aarambh' (Auspicious beginning) and 'Meethe mein kuch meetha ho jaye' (Let's have something sweet for dessert).

© Bharati Vidyapeeth’s Institute of Computer Applications and Management, New Delhi-63,by Nitish Pathak 1.

‹#›

Case Study-2

• The common thing for all the advertising campaigns was that they focused on the Indian customs and traditions and yet they gave it a modern and contemporary look to connect with all the people. Besides this, they also used a 360 degree campaign to support the television advertising campaigns, even as their rivals Nestle gave them tough competition with aggressive marketing and even directly taking on Cadbury's advertising campaign message. But many industry observers doubted the effectiveness of Cadbury's efforts and their ability to replace the traditional sweets and the traditional dessert items which had been a long part of the Indian traditions.

Case Study-3

• The case is organized into different sections. The first section is about the background and history of Google and the introduction of Google +. The next section is about the social networking market and the top players in it, followed by Google's previous attempts at social networking. It then talks about the various features of Google +, the initial response to it, and the response by the competitors. The case focuses on understanding the growing importance of social networking websites for the advertisers as well as their growing popularity among people over the world using the story of Google - the search engine and Internet giant as a struggling player in the social networking arena, trying to compete against established players like Facebook and Twitter.

Case Study-3

• The case also highlights the previous unsuccessful attempts by Google with its 'Buzz' and 'Wave', to understand why they did not do well. The questions that this case puts forward are whether Google has a real chance of succeeding this time with its Google + and whether it had finally got its attempt right.
