Memorandum

Memo to: The CEO

 From: Brand Manager, Tooheys New

RE:  A REPORT ON THE TOOHEYS NEW CASE

 This memo presents my reflection on the Tooheys New case and recommendations that may profit Tooheys New if implemented. The Tooheys New case is an analysis of ‘The Tooheys New Beer Economy Campaign’ that Tooheys New established intending to improve on its sales in Australia. The campaign introduced an official currency of the beer economy that provided the Australian population with the pay in beer currency aside from VISA and Master cards. With the slogan ‘For The Love of Beer,’ the beer economy has proved to be one of the most successful marketing strategies in the company’s history.

If there is one thing that I have learned from the Tooheys New case, is the significance of observing the psychological needs of the consumers when advertising your products. In this case, the ‘Tooheys New Beer Economy Campaign’ took advantage of peoples’ behavior of ‘returning a favor’ and ‘apologizing’ by introduced a beer currency that would calculate how many beers are equal to a particular favor or an apology that one made to another. For instance, fixing a mate’s car was equivalent to 6 beers or apologizing for sending an inappropriate text to a mate’s girlfriend was equal to one case of beer.

Therefore, I would recommend that our company should direct its marketing strategies towards achieving the psychological needs of individuals and communities in general. From the ‘Tooheys New Beer Economy Campaign’ I learned that it is the little things or concerns that attract consumers towards your products. Hence, to foster a much successful future for our company, we need to strategize more on meeting the community needs.
