...Josiah Wedgwood was an extraordinary, ambitious man and anything he did reflected his personality. Wedgwood was 1st mover because he transformed primitive pottery industry to the state of art. He always looked for new techniques to improve production process, design of the product, and marketing methods. From the start, Wedgwood’s goal was to cater to aristocrats, nobles, and middle upper class, which had a great spending ability. Wedgwood differentiated himself from other pottery manufacturers as a producer of high quality, fashionable products and was able to charge premium for his products. Wedgwood was the first entrepreneur who offered to his customers “free shipping, compensation for damage that occurred during transportation, and a satisfaction-or- money back guarantee.” When domestic demand for Wedgwood’s pottery decreased Wedgwood sent unsolicited pottery goods to a thousand German aristocrats, and gave them choice to buy or to return items at no cost. Wedgwood took great financial risk, but his marketing ploy was successful as the majority German customers purchased his pottery ware. In addition, Wedgwood used British diplomats and their spouses because they traveled throughout Europe and had a lot of valuable contacts that could spread a word about his products. Bentley and Wedgwood tirelessly networked with aristocrats and noblemen in France, Italy, Germany Portugal, Italy and China. When he produced a breakfast set for Queen Charlotte or dinner set for Catherine...

...Josiah Doncaster Ltd. On the 4th of March, the Board of Josiah Doncaster met for the second time in three weeks. The main item on the agenda, as before, was what decision to take on the proposed New Product Strategy, which arose out of the Consultant's Report commissioned by the Marketing Director. Established in 1740, the company had built up a worldwide reputation for fine household china. Its management was paternalistic, very conservative financially, and committed to preserving company traditions. Yet over the last 10 years the company had extended its product range into industrial porcelains for high-voltage insulation, and it had been very successful. Bill Hawkins, the newly appointed Marketing Director, opened the meeting with an aggressive presentation. At 35, he was a good 20 years younger than anyone else on the Board; and with a Harvard M.B.A., he was the only member of the Board with formal management training. 'I hope that certain members of the Board have reconsidered their positions since our last meeting. As far as 1 am concerned, my recommendations of three weeks ago still stand. Let's go through them once again, shall we? What are the main facts from the Consultant's Report? Let's take them one by one, shall we? (a) At a £4.50 selling price per filter unit, and a market size of 1 million units, the present market size is £4.5 million. (b) One company, Western Ltd, has an estimated 85% market share. (c) The market does not like working under a monopoly...
