Having an international business perspective is important to them and they aim to get to the very top of their career. They are more likely to use smart phones such as iPhone and Blackberry . They like to follow the stock market and tend to read the financial pages of their newspaper and think the economy is more important than the environment They tend to use their credit cards mainly for business. They say they don’t have enough time for their family.
  3. Quality and the Finer Things They consider themselves in-the-know and say they are the first amongst their friends to know what’s going on. They like taking risks and spend money without thinking. They are prepared to pay more for quality wine as well as luxury cosmetics and toiletries. They say they consider themselves connoisseurs of wine . There are some luxuries that they just cannot do without. Needless to say, they like to stand out from the crowd!
  4. Image Conscious They think it’s important to look attractive to the opposite sex and like to be well dressed. Designer labels are considered to improve a person’s image.

Notes de l'éditeur

  1. Product integrity is important (e.g Burberry actually didn’t suffer) - Burberry NEVER suffered from the chav thing (balance sheet) BECAUSE they maintained product integrity via Chris Bailey’s designs
  2. Logic – business has got to be the best in market – distribution needs to be best in market, have the best quality suppliers, point of sale standards extremely high, technical superiority – etc. Magic – harder to define how this is attained, can come largely from product and brand stories, the company it keeps etc. 0
  3. Logic point at end: e.g. Sailing / skiing gear worn by world’s best sailors and skiiers / Quality is paramount Move from a niche offering to a broader one without losing product/brand integrity
  4. (‘Selfridges-appeal’ the premium megastore) More contemporary than Prada’s classic offering High end Fast fashion offered via Miu Miu rather than dilute Prada’s integral brand values Younger, flirtier, more approachable brand
  5. New store openings using cutting edge architects to create a store ‘experience’ that is vastly different from the traditional maroquinerie stores in Italy Reflects brand values of contemporary design
  6. Just because they are a brand with a century of heritage, doesn’t mean they can’t step into the mass trends area in consumer purchasing habits One –off online auction to sell off ‘samples’ from current collection Used Ebay style auction approach but given exclusivity of items it reinforced, rather than undermined, the brand’s premium-ness Adopting current consumer trends without compromising their brand positioning.
  7. Trends presentation Stores are offering this bespoke, indulgent shopping experience to consumers because they are shopping for luxury online and therefore the maison is a go-to destination not just a store to browse as they can browse items online.
  8. Consumer feels like they’re buying into a rare product – emotional connection by enhancing the magic Smythson,
  9. Use an axis and state – terminology from their research
  10. The Know group is more valuable to BB&R than the Show group – advocacy, long term use vs. fashion

  18. Retain core values in everything you do Further stretches require whole new diffusion/new brands/segmented brands Operate at the extremes of Logic & Magic Technical brilliance in performance Confer status via brand ‘specialness’ Consumers want a story to tell others, products that say something about them Partnerships: deploying low-cost models of reaching HVCs with something new and richer The BB&R audience is valuable They are knowledgeable and they are advocates (of food & drink) They won’t or can’t do without Luxuries Career focused, frequent travellers, commuters – time is precious They ‘live’ online The recession has affected their attitudes more than their behaviour Still spending, just thinking twice about it first – and then buying it anyway
