Walmart, where millions of consumers shop, is well known for creating everyday specials for items ranging from groceries and clothing to housewares and electronics. However, paint is not typically on this list. This is the opportunity. Consumers believe that home improvement and specialty paint stores are the best source for all their painting needs, and the market has reinforced this idea. Our plan is to change this perception by positioning and promoting Glidden as an everyday ingredient that makes the everyday special – from an everyday life event to an everyday occasion. Glidden becomes the everyday paint that consumers use anytime. Any home refresh project can be accomplished with everyday Walmart products, turning inspiration into instant achievement. Just add Glidden. Suddenly, the everyday Walmart shopper becomes the everyday Glidden buyer. Here’s how we, at the Valenti Group, will do it.

Building Glidden brand awareness... Our plan is to increase Glidden sales at Walmart by 35% just as “Glidden gets you going” did for Glidden sales at Home Depot in 2010. To achieve this, we have devised a plan to increase Glidden awareness at Walmart from 66% to 89%, which will increase market share from 9% to 12%, making Glidden a $1 billion brand at Walmart.
SWOT ANALYSIS
STRENGTHS • Walmart’s convenience as a one-stop shop • Walmart’s everyday low prices • Glidden’s history of innovation • Glidden’s DIY legacy
WEAKNESSES • Walmart’s poor customer service and employees’ lack of paint knowledge • Consumers’ lack of Glidden brand awareness • Association of Walmart’s low prices with low quality
OPPORTUNITIES • Use new media to reach the target market • Low awareness of small everyday projects • Technology that impacts the paint purchase process
THREATS • Strong competition from hardware, home improvement and paint specialty stores • Category with nearly identical deliverables • Consumer perception that painting is difficult
