II. BASIC CONCEPT AND THEORY The orbital cavity of analysis of Adu Segar Larutan Penyegar Cap Badak vs. Kaki Tiga case is focused on Consumers Product Knowledge and Involvement image. Consumers beget varied levels of product friendship, which they can use to interpret new information and make purchase choices. Levels of knowledge are formed when people acquire separate meaning concepts (a ccretion process) and approve them into larger, more abstract categories of knowledge (tuning).The levels of product knowledge are classified based on below spectrum More vellicate Less Abstract Product Class Product Form Brand Model/Features Larutan Penyegar Ready-To- crapulence Cap Kaki Tiga Original(Bottled , 200ml 500ml)Fruity taste(Canned, 330ml, available in 7 variants) Because consumers are liable(predicate) to make separate purchase decisions at each level of knowledge, marketers make to understand how consumers organize their product knowledge in terms of these different levels.Thus, based on this concept, the basic questions that might arise are What are the levels of product knowledge for Larutan Penyegar? and Which are the dominant factors that influencing consumers purchase decision? The knowledge of consumers is organized into means-end chain concept. In this concept, consumers can have ternary types of product knowledge * knowledge well-nigh the attributes or characteristics of products, * the positive consequences or benefits of using products, * the determine the product helps consumers satisfy or achieve Products as Bundles of AttributesThe simplest line to describe Products as Bundles of Attributes is that it is the physical characteristic of the product itself. From a cognitive processing perspective, we might wonder if consumers really have knowledge in memory about all of these attributes and whether consumers actually activate and use this knowledge when deciding which products and brands to buy. To evaluate whether consumer sense of product attributes of Larutan Penyegar , we might get the figure by asking Do you know the basic ingredients being used in this product? or Would you compare the ingredients of each brand? Products as Bundles of Benefits Marketers also recognize that consumers often think about products and brands in terms of their consequences rather than their attributes. Consumers can have knowledge about two types of product consequences functional and psychosocial. Functional consequences are tangible outcomes of using a product that consumers experience rather directly while psychological consequences of product use are internal, personal outcomes, such as how the product makes you feel. Products as Value SatisfiersConsumers also have knowledge about the personal, symbolic values that products and brands help them satisfy or achieve. Values often involve the stimulated affect associated with such goals and needs (the fortified feelings and emotions that accompany success). In secern meansend chain links consumers knowledge about product attributes with their knowledge about consequences and values. In other words, consumers see most product attributes as a means to some end. The end could be a consequence (a benefit or a risk) or a more abstract value. A common representation of a meansend chain has four levelsBrand Attributes Functional Consequences Psychosocial Consequences V alue Larutan Penyegar Cap Kaki Tiga Mixture of medicinal ingredients Help relieve sore throat I feel better / healthy - Based on above figure, the means end chain of Larutan Penyegar Cap Kaki Tiga ends at the level of psychosocial consequences. III. CONSUMER analysis Having all the questions behind the basic concept, we must get the answer in order to understand the levels of consumer product knowledge, the means-end chain of Larutan Penyegar Cap Kaki Tiga and whether consumers aware of the competition of Cap Badak vs. Cap Kaki Tiga and if the subjected case influences the purchasing behavior. Therefore, a small research was conducted with the follo benefitg design Methods Quantitative, Face to Face reference Geographic location Jakarta, Bogor Sample criteria Consumer of Larutan Penyegar with the following constraints * 18+ years venerable * Purchase decision maker for Larutan Penyegar RTD * Purchase Larutan Penyegar RTD in perish 6 months Sample size 21 samples Research findings 1. Cap Kaki Tiga remark dominates the Top of judicial decision awareness by 90%, left Cap Badak with only 10% TOM. Cap Kaki Tiga Cap BadakTop of Mind sureness 90% 10% Q Thinking about Larutan Penyegar brands, what brand name do you think first of all? 2. 90% of respondents take their last purchase of Larutan Penyegar brand is Cap Kaki Tiga Cap Kaki Tiga Cap Badak Last Purchase 90% 10% Q What was the brand(s) have you bought in medieval 6 months? 3. Interestingly, from 90% respondent who mentioned that their last purchase was Cap Kaki Tiga, only 19% who can distinguish the new packaging of Larutan Penyegar Cap Kaki Tiga and chose it, while 62% of the respondent most likely recall visual imagery of Badak and chose Cap Badak brand.The rest 19% didnt recollect which nursing feeding bottle that they bought. Cap Kaki Tiga Cap Badak Dont Remember Visual imaging 19% 62% 19% Q Now I would like to know how familiar you are with the Larutan Penyegar product. 1 set bottles of Larutan Penyegar Cap Kaki Tiga vs. Cap Badak, and point which bottle they bought the last time 4. 90% of the respondent does non aware about the competition about the product Not Aware Aware Awareness about the case 90% 10% Q Do you know that currently there are two different products? 5.After the respondents are told about the brief description whether the old Cap Kaki Tiga is currently produced by different manufacturer (PT Kinocare), and the manufacturer of old Cap Kaki Tiga is now producing Cap Badak, only 10% of respondent who prefer Cap Kaki Tiga, 52% prefer Cap Badak and 38% would choose any products that is available in the store. Cap Kaki Tiga Cap Badak Anything Brand gustatory modality 10% 52% 38% Q After you have the knowledge that currently there are 2 brands, which product(s) that you would choose?To summarize, based on the research above, the insights are 1. Most of the respondents (90%) do not aware about the competition of Larutan Penyegar products from the t wo brands (Cap Badak vs. Cap Kaki Tiga). 2. Inconsistency happened on brand name and product recollection. The high respondent mind share on Cap Kaki Tiga name (90%) is not translated into product election (19%) callable to people historical memory about the product is anchored in the pie-eyed visual image of the Badak packaging. 3.An interest fact appears when respondents are told about the departure of the brands, ironically most of them (52% vs 10%) prefer to choose Cap Badak instead of Cap Kaki Tiga. However, there is still an opportunity for Cap Kaki Tiga to win the 38% respondent who would choose any brands. Then, based on insights above, we can identify few problems of Cap Kaki Tiga current products, which are 1. Badak logo imagery is very strong in consumers mind. To win over Badak image is quite impossible eventhough consumers have strong awareness on Cap Kaki Tiga name.If both products have to be in head-to head competition, such in display, most likely consumers will eer choose Cap Badak. 2. From interviews, we got few comments about Cap Kaki Tiga logo which is not quite familiar and dont look interesting at all. Some of them think that logo of Cap Kaki Tiga makes the product looks like a fake. Some even thought the logo looks associated with insalubrious mosquito-killer insecticide product logo. IV. RECOMMENDATION RECOVERY/SOLVING AND KEY LEARNINGOur convocation proposes several recommendations for Cap Kaki Tiga brand to be considered 1. Launch new format of Cap Kaki Tiga with totally fresh new all told concepts (packaging design, formats and marketing communications). a. Changes of packaging design should emphasize on the Cap Kaki Tiga name, as its strong point, and minimize the proportion of Cap Kaki Tiga logo, as its weakness point. b. Changes of bottle format with new shapes. We analyzed that with same bottle format as Cap Badak, it wont be practiced for Cap Kaki Tiga.The reason for that is the consumer will always associate the bottle format with Badak painting in it and they would most likely prefer it and fool the Cap Kaki Tiga current same format as a fake. c. To support the changes in design and bottle format, we have to give strong marketing communications emphasizing on historical journey of professional Cap Kaki Tiga brand product. This approach has the ultimate goal to emphasize the originality of the brand with Cap Kaki Tiga as the holder of official license from Wen Ken Drugs since the very beginning and create consumer confidence that the product is not a fake. . In order to increase consumer involvement, we recommend Cap Kaki Tiga to tap into younger segment through its flavored variant product line by communicating Larutan penyegar as daily beverage. Through this strategy, it is anticipate to create a new image and perception that a consumer does not have to wait until he feels sore throat to consume Larutan Penyegar. To support this strategy, Cap Kaki Tiga might conduct a marketing event that pr omote consumers involvement in the usage of the product, for example conducting 10K hurry Competition for charity, sponsorship in sports competition (e. IBL) as the official beverage, sponsorship in tame annual music festival, and so on. 3. Strengthen distribution channel is also key fruit strategy Cap Kaki Tiga have to explore to win the competition. To target indifferent consumers, availability of the product is a must. Kino should have expertise on this area, since other Kinos products are already strong in distributions. 4. Have further research (ZMET Study) in order to get further insights on d. The brand and logo association, how Cap Kaki Tiga brand and logo can affect the consumer purchase decision. e.To understand the key reason for purchase and also the influential touch point so we are able to develop effective marketing campaign on the new concept launch Key learnings from our study on Cap Kaki Tiga brand, stated as following 1. Top of mind awareness of brand is not n ecessarily translated into consumers decision to purchase (share of market) for the case of Larutan Penyegar competition. Therefore, an effective marketing strategy is needed to drive consumer purchase furthermore. 2. senior high brands awareness means nothing if the consumers dont aware about the product itself.A product must have a uniqueness to be able to distinguish itself from the crowd and chosen by the consumers. 3. Cap Kaki Tiga has to try to go out from Red Ocean competition with Cap Badak. The more they are trying to compete head-to head with similar concept as Cap Badak, the less opportunity for Cap Kaki Tiga to win Larutan Penyegar competition. 4. It worth to have a shot on going to the market with fresh new whole concepts, because Cap Kaki Tiga has opportunity to be the offense side, rather than Cap Badak as defense side. Offense as to grab the indifferent market as mentioned before on the short basis, and to grab the current market share from Cap Badak on drawn-out term period. V. REFERENCE 1. Peter, J.
