EVOLUTION OF

LOGO

STARBUCKS LOGO (1971-1987) Il GIORNALE LOGO (1986-1987)

A logo based on an old sixteenth-century

Norse woodcut: a two-tailed mermaid, or

siren, encircled by the store’s original

name, Starbucks Coffee, Tea, and Spice.

Logo reflected the emphasis on

speed. The Il Giornale name was

inscribed in a green circle that

surrounded a head of Mercury,

the swift messenger god.”

STARBUCKS LOGO

(1987-1992)

“To symbolize the melding of the two companies [Il

Giornarle and Starbucks] and two cultures, Terry

[Heckler] came up with a design that merged the two

logos.

STARBUCKS LOGO (1992-2011) 2011 – and beyond

“This new evolution of the logo

… embraces and respects our

heritage and at the same time,

evolves us to a point where we

will feel it’s more suitable for

the future”

SEGMENTING

MARKETS

Starbucks uses demographic segmentation

(markets by age, gender, income, ethnic

background , and family life cycle)

as well as geographic segmentation ( markets by

region of a country or the world, market size,

market density or climate).

TARGET

CUSTOMER

Starbucks’ primary target market is men and women aged 25 to 40.

They account for almost half (49 percent) of its total business . Customers tend to be urbanites with relatively high income, professional careers and a focus on social welfare. This target audience grows at a rate of 3 percent annually.

Young adults, aged 18 to 24 :

Starbucks positions itself as a place college

students can hang out, study, write term

papers and meet people. Starbucks appeals to

this consumer directly through introducing

technology as soon as it comes available,

focusing on social networking and actively

cultivating a “cool” image. The young adult

audience grows 4.6 percent each year.

MARKET

POSITIONING

• Starbucks has positioned itself as a highly

respected brand.

• The Starbucks Company has positioned

itself in a way that it can distinguish their

products from competition , which gives

them an advantage

MARKETING

STRATEGIES

• “Perfect cup of coffee”- Their coffee, even if priced

slightly more expensive than expected, is famous

for satisfying customers with rich , delicious taste

and aroma.

• “Customer Satisfaction” – From entrance to the

store to the very last drop of the coffee, it is a must

that customers feel the uniqueness of enjoying

their Starbucks coffee experience.

• “Creating Starbucks Community” – Starbucks

started a community website, My Starbucks

Idea,designed to collect suggestions and feedback

from customers.

• “Innovation” – They’ve added different flavours to their coffee, more food on their menu, free weekly songs or app download from iTunes, free Wi-fiInternet usage, free birthday drink etc.

• “Just say yes “ policy in order to keep the customers happy

• “My Starbucks Reward Program” allows members to earn a free drink after every 15 purchases at participating Starbucks stores

• Starbucks Card – It is a stored value card for customers to use and reload.

• “Adding Value” - That little bit of extra value

beyond the fare of coffees and cakes keeps the

customers going back again and again.

• “Getting personal with Customers” - the staff

always ask your name – which they write on your

cup.

• “Cluster of coffee shops” - Part of Starbucks’

marketing strategy is to hit a new territory hard

and open a few coffee shops there – often in very

relatively close proximity to one another.

• “Third Place” – From the very beginning, the Starbucks marketing

strategy has focused on creating the “third place” for everyone to go

to between home and work. Creating this unique and relaxing

“experience” and “atmosphere” for people has been very important

for the company as they have realized that this is one of the

strongest concepts attached to the company, to which customers

have been strongly attracted.

SOCIAL MEDIA

Their social media strategy is built around

their company web site and 6 additional

social platforms, including Twitter,

Facebook, Pinterest, G+, Youtube, and My

Starbucks Ideas.

Rather, it's focusing on the brand by chronicling a day in the life of Starbucks through a mini-documentary, shot in 59 different stores in 28 countries, using 39 local filmmakers, 10 local photographers and one director coordinating it all at 72 and Sunny, the agency responsible for the work.

• Cities the project was filmed in include New York, Rio de Janeiro, Bogota, Singapore, Beijing, Mumbai, Toronto, Paris and Berlin.
