Based on:
Conduct a scan of the critical questions to identify the key issues to analyze in greater depth.
Look for specific issues and opportunities on your brand relative to the most critical questions.
S:\0\03856\002.bc\2001.yr\cmb\seminars\av2_busreview.ppt11
The Critical QuestionsThe Market
What is the definition of the market we compete in (from a consumer standpoint)?
What are market trends within key segments? Is the market growing or declining; is the trend consistent for sales
Taka, volume and profitability? How can the size of the market be explained in terms of consumer
purchase behavior? What underpins category, segment and brand volumes in this market
(i.e. high purchase frequency, purchases of large quantities, etc.)? What are related/complementary category trends? What is the market outlook?
S:\0\03856\002.bc\2001.yr\cmb\seminars\av2_busreview.ppt12
The Critical QuestionsThe Consumer What are critical consumer needs in this category? Which represent
unmet needs? What are usage and habit trends amongst consumers? What consumer perceptions exist about this category and our brand? Who is our consumer target (influencer, purchaser, user, etc.)? What is the most relevant consumer segmentation in this category? What is the composition of our consumer base relative to this
segmentation? How does our consumer base break down in terms of usage (heavy,
medium, light users)? What behavior change amongst which target consumer is most
important to building our brand?
S:\0\03856\002.bc\2001.yr\cmb\seminars\av2_busreview.ppt13
The Critical QuestionsThe Consumer
What is the flow of the consumer purchase decision in this category?
Where in the consumer purchase decision process can consumers be most influenced?
What environmental factors trigger consumer need for the category (e.g. media, special occasion, on shopping list, family input, price incentive)?
What specific factors trigger selection of our brand (i.e. what makes our target consumer want to buy)?
What are household penetration, purchase frequency, purchase units/ buyer and share of requirement trends for our brand?
How would we categorize the level of loyalty in this category?
How do consumers shop this category (e.g. price hunters, passive, etc.)?
S:\0\03856\002.bc\2001.yr\cmb\seminars\av2_busreview.ppt14
The Critical Questions
Our Competitors
Who is our competition (from a consumer standpoint)?
What are key competitors’ business trends?
What are key competitors’ strengths and weaknesses?
How do we perform versus competition in key areas (e.g. product, package, pricing, availability, etc.)?
What are price/unit (or per serving) trends for key competitors relative to our brand?
What is the price elasticity for our brand versus competition?
What is the consumer’s perception of our brand’s value equation versus key competitors?
S:\0\03856\002.bc\2001.yr\cmb\seminars\av2_busreview.ppt15
The Critical QuestionsOur Channel Customers What are category sales trends by channel? Have there been
any important shifts? Which segments and brands are winning/losing & why? Which channels are most important for us and the competition? What is the trend in level of support for this category by
customers? (display, merchandising, pricing, etc.) What role does our category play for customers; how does this
differ by channel? What are availability trends for our brand? How do our trade
margins compare versus competition in the key channels?
S:\0\03856\002.bc\2001.yr\cmb\seminars\av2_busreview.ppt16
The Critical QuestionsOur Business Performance What are historical sales, market share and profit trends for our
brand; what are the drivers of these results? What are the key financial and operating ratios on the brand? Where have we sourced our volume; how will we create growth? (i.e.
growing the category vs. growing share within the category)? What has been the historical effectiveness of our marketing
activity/spending and specific programs? What has been the success rate of new products? What are the key
drivers of these results? How are we performing versus our key substrategies (e.g. product
and packaging, integrated communication, customer business development)?
S:\0\03856\002.bc\2001.yr\cmb\seminars\av2_busreview.ppt17

3. Translating Data into Key Issues and Opportunities
For each of these critical questions, we want to answer:
What’s happening?
Why? “I’ll bet ......”
What are the opportunities?

Purpose is to focus analysis and gather/ analyze causal data to address your hypotheses
Long list and prioritize your “bets” so data search is limited to proving/disproving your hypotheses
Ask a series of questions until there are no more to ask!

Translating Data into Key Issues and Opportunities
S:\0\03856\002.bc\2001.yr\cmb\seminars\av2_busreview.ppt21
Nestlé Milo is stagnating in growth while the category grows at 5% per annum.
What’s Happening? Why? … I’ll Bet What are the Opportunities?
A key barrier to Nestlé Milo is that the perception that Nestlé Milo offers little nutritional value
Explore the launch of an intensive sampling and communication campaign that focuses on the nutrition of Milo and a means of getting kids to drink milk.
Translating Data into Key Issues and Opportunities

Documenting the Key Issues and Opportunities
Statement of key issue or problem plan must address
Summary of quantitative, factual support
Statement of preliminary opportunity
Reversing the trend on the Nestlé Milo is critical to the long-term viability of the brand.
Nestlé Milo has stagnated at 50 tonnes for 4 years with extensive PFME funding.and the category continues to grow.
Within the category, Milo decline\ have been offset by growth in Horlicks and Ovaltine.
"Restage" the Nestlé Milo brand including product improvements to achieve 60/40 preference, new communication message to increase relevance, and reformulation. Intensive sampling campaign.

Which Are Good Key Issue/Opportunity Statements?
1. We need to increase consumer top-of-mind awareness of Nestlé core chocolate brands to drive consumption Nestlé confectionery brands have low consumer
awareness versus competition
Opportunity: Increase advertising investment on core brands and increase in-store visibility
2. Weaker distribution and sales in the Pharmacy channel of Nutrition products indicate a serious area of underdevelopment for Nestlé Only 2% of Nestlé Nutrition sales come from Pharmacy
Opportunity: Support medical detailing strategy with increased distribution and facings in the Drug channel
S:\0\03856\002.bc\2001.yr\cmb\seminars\av2_busreview.ppt24
Which Are Good Key Issue/Opportunity Statements?
3. Nestlé GUM is over-reliant in the Central Region 80% of sales in Central region
Opportunity: Develop a specific initiative for the East and West Region
4. A key issue for Nescafe is maintaining distribution in small grocery stores 200g and 50g are not maintaining distribution and
does not offer a one time consumption
Opportunity: Develop a specific product for the small grocery outlets

5. Developing The Business Review “Story”
Synthesis of business overview: how’s business on the brand and why explains key reasons for results
Can be tackled as a “news story” headline concept sub-headlines text
S:\0\03856\002.bc\2001.yr\cmb\seminars\av2_busreview.ppt38
The Business Review Story - Coffee-Mate Example
2000 was another disappointing performance year for Coffee-Mate with sales down -10% and profit flat versus 1999.
Over the past 4 years, the brand has experienced a rapid decline in household penetration (a loss of approximately 40% of our user base) as consumers have shifted away from the static powder segment of the whitening market into the growing liquid segment. On a combined powder and liquid basis, our brand share has declined from 34% in 1999 to 27% in 2000, and within powder, share has declined from 45% to 40%.
S:\0\03856\002.bc\2001.yr\cmb\seminars\av2_busreview.ppt39
The Business Review Story - Coffee-Mate (cont’d.)
Beyond losing share to other whitening occasions (e.g. liquid), Coffee Mate is also being hurt by the continued growth of Private Label powders (19% share), driven by aggressive pricing. Average selling prices for Control Label were up to 40% less than those for Coffee-Mate in 2000.
Critical to the long-term reversal of this business performance is consideration of a launch into the liquid segment followed by a plan to minimize losses on powder including product reformulation, aggressive product cost savings and targeted investment in PFME support.
S:\0\03856\002.bc\2001.yr\cmb\seminars\av2_busreview.ppt40
Characteristics of a Good Business Review “Story”
Provides sufficient business context (past year, history).
Sufficiently explains the “why” behind business performance.
Identifies how the reader should be thinking about the brand’s performance (is this good/bad/indifferent).
Self contained (like newspaper headlines)
