The company already has 2 brands in the performance segment and their market share in the performance segment is almost 75%. We feel that a new brand in the performance segment will cannibalize the market share of the existing products.
We would target the mildness segment since this is a growing market and also there is a room for improvement in the segment.
We propose launching a new product in Mildness segment.
Initial cost Capital : $20 Million
Marketing Cost : $60 Million
Assuming that the new product can gain 60% market share of the competitor, we would like to predict the sales in the first year.
The market share that the new product is likely to grab from the competitors
Total Market = 59.1 Million cases
Mildness Segment = .37 * 59.1 = 21.867 Million Cases
Competitors Share = 59.1 * (.37 - .155) = 9.1 Million Cases.
