EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

Victoria’s Secret was originally launched in 1997 by Roy and Gaye Raymond. The brand started up when Roy wanted to buy his wife some sexy lingerie as a present without coming across suspicious for purchasing women’s underwear. He then had the idea to begin this company in order for men to feel comfortable buying underwear as gifts for their significant others.  Victoria’s Secret sales are targeted at both men and women to shop, and for middle class women of ages 16-49 to wear.

For example, Ann Summers, Boux Avenue, Primark and H&M. There are a large amount of competitors that consumers would lean towards rather than Victoria’s Secret because they are cheaper, better quality and have better ethics/morals and therefore customers have more respect for those brands. Even though Victoria’s Secret is a successful business, alternative brands have many features buyers worship that Victoria’s Secret do not have, resulting in a loss of sales for the company.

BRAND POSITIONING MAP

This is my brand positioning map/first attempt of the one I will be submitting; I may add/change some of the brand around once even more research has been conducted. The points I decided to go for in this brand positioning map is 'HIGH PRICE', 'LOW PRICE', 'HIGH QUALITY' AND 'LOW QUALITY'. I believe these are good points as it shows if the price of the products matches up to the quality and portrays whether you actually get for what you pay for. These brands on the map are all of different levels of quality and price and I have placed them according to where I believe they should go.
