Samantha,
Marketing is part of everyday life; whether you are the one buying or the one selling. “The basic idea of this somewhat complicated definition is that marketing is all about delivering value to everyone who is affected by a transaction”(Solomon, Marshall, & Stuart, 2012, p. 8). The market for Aveeno's products is all natural and pure products.In my opinion, the Natural product line has become a success over the last few years. The company’s spokeswoman is Jennifer Aniston who has a flawless natural glow about herself. I have been a huge admirer of Aveeno products because I have very sensitive skin, so when I see “Active Naturals” on all their products it gives me the interest and desire to buy their products.

Based on the information provided in the L’Oreal case, Yue Sai struggled to grow and capture additional sales in the high-end Chinese cosmetics sector. In the past, L’Oreal attempted to position Yue Sai in several different ways which can be viewed as detrimental to the company image, showing uncertainty as the company struggles to see which positioning strategy will stick. The most recent positioning presented in the case, which desires to “deliver Yue Sai’s longstanding brand promise that ‘Nobody knows Chinese skin better than Yue Sai’”, allows the highest probability of success for the company capitalizing on countless fresh trends in Chinese cosmetics (6). The positioning statement would reflect this new strategy: “For the modern Chinese woman Yue Sai offers a line of high-end cosmetics. Unlike other high-end cosmetics Yue Sai combines traditional Chinese medicine and sophisticated technology adapted to the unique skin type of Chinese women.” Yue Sai saw reasonable success and hope in the new Vital Essential line which utilized traditional Chinese medicine and, therefore, resulted in above average repeat purchases. Continuing to focus the strategy around traditional Chinese medicine should benefit Yue Sai considerably. Another suggested strategy would be to wholly reposition Yue Sai, however this is ill advised. As stated in the case, Yue Sai tried numerous different positioning strategies, which ultimately provided no clear path strategy. Repositioning would show uncertainty in the company, lowering brand value in the eyes of the consumer.
