Cadbury Marketing Codes
The ‘marketing mix’ is the term used to describe the combination of different activities necessary for a product to be successful. It is often described as ‘the 4 P’s’ i.e.
PRODUCT = the good or service sold by the organisation;
PRICE = the way in which the selling price is decided;
PROMOTION = how customers are made aware of the product;
PLACE = how the product is sold and ‘delivered’ to the final customer. Cadbury when promoting abides to the following marketing codes:
Copy, sound and visual presentation will accurately represent all material dimensions of products advertised, including taste, size, content and nutrition and health benefits.
All our advertising will be truthful, accurate and well substantiated. Health benefit claims will have a sound nutritional basis and comply with applicable government regulations.
Our advertising will reflect moderation in consumption and portion sizes appropriate to the social and cultural setting portrayed.
Our advertising will never portray or endorse inappropriate or over consumption. Unless a food product has been nutritionally designed as a meal replacement, it will not be portrayed as such.
In every country where we advertise we will be attentive to local, cultural, political and religious sensitivities and always market within the highest common denominator of any existing regulatory, advertiser, agency and broadcaster guidelines.
We will apply these guidelines to all forms of media including print, broadcast and cable television, radio, video, telephone, point-of-sale, online advertising, other internet activities and packaging. This code is reviewed annually by the group's President of

Prior to release, all advertisements and promotions to children will be reviewed at an early stage for the appropriateness of the activity and then checked against this code before being signed off by business unit general managers. In addition, there will be a periodic review of business unit activity by regional and global management to ensure that interpretation of the code is aligned locally, regionally and globally.
Adverts often mask foods that are unhealthy by emphasising its positive nutritional features – such as dietary fibre and protein. While at the same time ignoring its negative features – including the high amounts of saturated fat and sugar contents. In some cases, even products that mention any alleged health benefits are usually are outweighed by the health risks associated with consuming the product, that they just fail to
The 4 Ps of the marketing mix are: Product, Promotion, Price, and Place. The marketing mix puts the right products, at the right price point, in the right place, at the right time. The following examines how Claire’s Chocolates optimizes its marketing mix (Yoo, Donthu, & Lee, 2000, 195-196).
Marketing is not just about selling and advertising products and services. In general, marketing is associated with identifying the particular wants and needs of a target market of customers, and then working to satisfy those customers better than the competition. This involves doing market research on customers, analyzing their needs, and then making strategic decisions about product design, pricing, promotion and distribution or place (Bethel, 2007). Understanding ways to identify the target market is crucial in developing market strategy. This paper is intended to define target marketing and examine a market analysis of Stacy's Pita Chip Company.
Imagine yourself wrongly convicted of a crime. You spent years in jail awaiting your release date. It finally comes, and when they let you out, they slap handcuffs around your wrists and tell you every single action you do. In a nutshell, that’s how the Black Codes worked. The southerners wanted control over the blacks after the Civil War, and states created their own Black Codes.
Consumers are now watching what they eat, and want to avoid products that contain ingredients that have become deemed as fattening.
This film shows schizophrenia as a challenging, yet, beatable disease. It shows the very hard aspects of it, but also the glory in the triumph over it. For the most part Russell Crowe delivered a pretty true portrayal of a schizophrenic’s life. Some parts were very “Hollywood”, while most aspects of the film were dead on with the nature of the sickness. A Beautiful Mind is a film that shows the very beautiful effects of unbridled love and support to someone who is afflicted by schizophrenia.
In order to provide a structure upon which a comprehensive marketing plan can be build, Sainsbury's should adopt a SOSTAC model in order to help the development of a logical structure combined with the key elements of a plan.
Although admitting he does not know what is best, he concludes that it is the
“A Beautiful Mind” is a remarkable movie that sheds light on a complicated and debilitating disorder, in which the person seems to have no control over. It is enlightening and heart warming, I would highly recommend this movie. I must admit, the first time I watch the movie, I went into it not knowing anything about schizophrenia and when it was over, I still felt like I didn’t fully understand the disorder; however, the second time I watched with the knowledge of what schizophrenia is and all of the various symptoms and I find it astonishing that Nash was able to overcome the disorder by sheer willpower over his own mind, as he chose to ignore the voices in his head.
Hershey’s and Quaker are two well established brands in the snack food world. The weight of their names carry a specific ethos; a persona that will influence the consumer to buy their product, as it is a name that the customer trusts. Two advertisements are analyzed, both found in a February 2007 edition of People magazine: Hershey’s Extra Dark Chocolate and Quaker True Delight print advertisements. The main connection between these two prints is rather apparent: they are both snack foods, and they contain dark chocolate. However, both prints, as they are introducing a new product line, paint a new image of their merchandise: this snack food is healthy, ergo this creation should be chosen over all other products. Hershey’s Extra Dark Chocolate utilizes a cause-and-effect strategy by outlining that consuming their dark chocolate will improve cardiovascular health, backed by the logic and ethos of a study performed by a well-known university. Quaker’s True Delights, however, emphasizes the fact that their product tastes fantastic and is low in calories, in addition to using their ethos of their brand. Ultimately, both products utilize their established persona to draw

I’m sure you have heard of, or even consumed several other teas such as jasmine tea, chamomile tea, green tea and matcha tea. In the East, tea is consumed as a common beverage with drinkers using it to gain happiness, wisdom and perfect health. Several studies have confirmed the health benefits of tea drinking and encourage it as an alternative to coffee because of its low caffeine percentage.
However, does tea continue to have an impact on the culture in present time? To find the answer to this question we first need to understand four things related to tea, which are its origin, popularity, trade and finally tea culture and ceremonies. As for the subject of tea culture and ceremony because there are many different ones we will only focus on four which will be China, Japan, Tibet and lastly Britain. I myself,
The film A Beautiful Mind tells the story of his life in an impactful way. In the beginning, he appears to be very smart and intuitive, yet also socially awkward. He gets a secret job as a spy against Russian forces. His secrecy and insanity increases as the film progresses to climax. In an abrupt moment, we find out that everything he was doing was fake; it was all just in his mind. By this time, he is already married, and yet, his wife knew nothing about his mental condition. He is diagnosed with schizophrenia, an illness that will forever change his life. He is given serious treatment to combat his symptoms, which eventually begins to work. After some time, he returns to a semi-normal life with his wife and kid, but his struggle was far from over. The people and images he saw that were only in his mind continued to be there, even after the treatment. It culminated when he stopped taking his medications, and the disease took over again. He even went so far as to start to drown his son, because his reality was distorted in such a way that he didn’t see the harm. Nash did recover from this episode and returned to a life full of medication and treatment. He always saw those same people that were in his head, but he just had to choose to ignore them. He even tried to come up with a mathematical cure, and he attempted to reason his way out of the sickness. However, there was no way out. The movie shows the powerful effects schizophrenia can have on the mind, even a great mind like John
