Marketing Strategy

Red Delicious
We recommend marketing quart-sized, premixed paint in the Glidden Brilliance Collection interior and exterior finishes in the “Top Ten Accent Colors” as defined by Glidden’s website and promotional materials. This strategy is aligned with Glidden’s newly released “Glidden® High Endurance™ Grab-N-Go” premixed gallons.
Give It a TryThis marketing strategy directly connects to the lifestyle habits of Glidden’s target markets, because they shop at Walmart and are interested in taking on small DIY projects. Offering premixed quarts allows them to try Glidden paint without making a large purchase.
Our strategy makes quarts a gateway to the gallon. Once the target audiences see the powerful change a small amount of paint makes in their lives, they will feel more confident purchasing Glidden at Walmart for their gallon-sized projects.
Building TrustGlidden’s target markets want paint department employees with experience. They are concerned about Walmart employees’ ability to properly mix paint. The premixed quarts strategy eliminates the risk of operator error, leading to an increased level of trust not previously associated with purchasing paint at Walmart.
Drive awareness and consideration of the Glidden Brilliance Collection through the addition of a quart-sized premixed paint line sold exclusively at Walmart.
Color without the CostThe most important factor when purchasing paint for the target audiences is color. Glidden’s new collection offers the most popular accent colors and gives the target a variety of premixed paint to choose from. When making purchases, the target audiences also value price. Glidden quarts reduce the cost for customers because they are less expensive than a gallon.
Completing the ProjectThe target’s painting experiences focus mainly around DIY projects because either they enjoy the simplicity of smaller projects or are restricted from undertaking larger endeavors. The quart-sized can of paint more easily accommodates less extensive DIY and wall painting projects. The ease of purchasing the product also encourages the target audiences to return to Walmart when they decide to purchase gallons.

DIYer Information • DIYers are generalists and desire a mixture of renovation and maintenance projects. • They value courses to update their skills with new techniques.
Who Takes on Projects? • Men are substantially more likely than women to take on projects including electrical, plumbing and construction. • Women are four times more likely than men to NOT undertake DIY projects because someone else in their household does the repairs and improvement. • Women are more likely to feel physically incapable of DIY tasks. • Women are more likely than men to shop at DIY retailers for smaller projects. • 25% of those age 18-24 do not undertake DIY projects because they do not feel physically capable of doing so. • Nine out of ten of those age 55+ do feel physically capable of doing DIY projects.
DIYers and Their PreferencesWe used primary and secondary research to learn about the target audience and the paint industry. Through our efforts, we gained insight into how the target feels about paint, DIY
projects and social media.
Surveyed States

Blog InfluenceThe target audience gets inspiration, ideas and knowledge for their own small projects from DIY bloggers. • Paint selections are based on color. • Bloggers try to match the paint color they use to furniture and other accents in their homes. • Unless they are sponsored by Glidden, very few bloggers mention the use of Glidden for their projects.
Walmart shoppers • 59.9% of Walmart shoppers are women. • 62.6% of Walmart shoppers are married. • 21.2% of Walmart shoppers are age 45-54. • 27.6% of Walmart shoppers have an income of $50,000-$74,999.
Quart Competition • Quart prices range from $9.27-$21.99. • RUST-OLEUM is the only other brand with premixed paint and primer quarts sold for $8.48. • Martha Stewart carries a finish-only line of premixed quarts sold for $21.99.
CompetitionHome improvement stores hold the largest share of the market in paint sales, creating low consideration for paint purchases at Walmart.
The target audience finds the employees at home improvement stores more credible and more knowledgeable about paint products than Walmart employees.
Top 15 Priority CitiesStatistics on paint sales, Walmart locations and population were cross-referenced to produce the top 15 priority cities where the campaign will be most successful. Some efforts will focus solely on these cities.

the personal impact a quart can make. The introduction of premixed quarts in Walmart stores meets the needs and expectations of the target audience while eliminating the intimidation often associated with DIY
projects. The quart may be small in size, but its statement is bold.

Measuring SuccessUse metrics such as impressions, engagement on social media and quart sales to measure the effectiveness of the campaign to increase awareness and consideration of Glidden’s brand. We
recommend using analytic software and social media analytics to determine the campaign’s influence.“ ”Since the campaign focuses on increasing awareness and consideration, Glidden should measure return on investment based on those factors. We recommend Glidden conduct two surveys, one before the campaign and one after to measure the success of reaching the awareness and consideration goals. We have also calculated a financial return on investment, based solely on the sale of quarts, resulting in a 205.91% ROI. We are confident it will also increase sales of gallons; however, these sales are not included in our ROI calculations.

The traditional and nontraditional media buying, public relations and social media tactics stem from the marketing and creative strategies allowing the campaign to constantly reinforce the message that Glidden’s quarts make a bold statement.
Quarts to GallonsWe recommend following these strategies to improve the target audience’s awareness of Glidden and increase their confidence when buying the product at Walmart.
