...Nike: The athletic footwear industry History Nike started out just as plan developed in order to satisfy course work at Stanford University. Mr. Phil Knight a graduate student at Stanford University and a long-distance runner decided that he would make low cost running shoes in Japan and then sell them in the US. Knight solicited the assistance of a past coach Bill Bower man to assist him in his business venture and in 1964 they started Blue Ribbon Sports. Knight called his first shoe Tiger and began distribution at track meets. Blue Ribbon in 1971 earned it's "swoosh" and Knight introduced the first Nike brand line. In 1978 the Blue Ribbon became Nike and each year their profits grew steadily. Due to Nikes concentration in casual shoes in the 1980's, they missed the trend to aerobic shoes and fell behind allowing Reebok to control the market. Due to poor management in the years following and proceeding Reebok's take over things fell apart. Phil Knight repositioned and reestablished Nike following the bumpy years in the 80's. In 1988 Nike purchased Cole Haan for $64 million which allowed them to increase casual footwear sales by 16%, they also purchased the accessories company in 1990. Nike even expanded by opening their own retail store "Nike Town" in 1990. Nike distributes to 123 retail stores in the US and also in 52 retail stores in countries such as, the UK, Japan, France, Italy, Spain, Germany, and Canada. Ribbon Sports officially...

...different perception of marketers on Facebook, but the essay mostly provides general views relating to the current marketing issue. Brand relationship is illuminated from the marketing practitioners. It is probably interesting that over half of the social networking introspective people had become a fan of at least one brand. It happens in these forums that conversation commonly takes place between customer and customer or between customer and brand manager. In the more outstanding scheme of a consumer's life might seem relatively unimportant, but it is crucial in classifying and categorizing customer distrust and building sincere relationships for marketers (Patterson, 2011). For instance, Patterson has become a fan of a lot of brands like Nike, Ryanair, Mariah and Coke. This allows him to keep updated products, promotions or contests because he is one of consumers who enjoy catching up with promotions. Moreover, how Facebook places means for marketers (Lazerow, 2010). For those of who often...

...Module Title: Business Ethics and Social Responsibility Question 1: Set out the main criticisms that have been levelled at the above three MNC's In the case of Nestle, it became evident that no formal research into the emerging market was carried out. No approached to local authorities or government agencies was made; who may have had great knowledge/insight into feeding practice within the region or problems/issues that Nestle may be faced with. They simply tried to implement existing 'western' aspirational marketing practice into a region that they knew nothing about. Their communications with the target market were poor & unclear which led to the misconception that formula was a good way to replace breast milk and other forms of nutrition vital to child development. The company did not play its role in educating the public as to the proper methods of using the product and indeed the danger of it's misuse, and also did not consider the different living conditions as a factor in which could lead to such misuse. Their aggressive marketing approach ignored or de-emphasized breast feeding & much of their promotional efforts were misleading in encouraging poor & illiterate mothers to bottle-feed rather than breast feed their infants. Advertising portrayed breast-feeding as primitive and inconvenient. Free gifts & samples were supplied by sales reps dressed as quasi-medical staff known as 'milk nurses'; which were viewed as 'endorsements by association'. Quality control...
