The product would be positioned as a fun, fast, premium, adult beverage. To better understand the market potential of this product, Coke conducted a test market. The test market data combined with other data indicate the following facts:

• Of the men and women who drink alcoholic beverages, 15% of men and 10% of women will try this new beverage over a two-year period (assume this the trial rate is divided equally across years).

  • 25% of men and 10% of women who try the product will become repeat buyers
  • There are 60,000,000 men in the U.S. ages 21-60.
  • There are 65,000,000 women in the U.S. ages 21-60.
  • 50% of men and 30% of women drink alcoholic beverages
  • Of men and women who drink, 30% of men and 10% of women earn >$40,000


Coke planned to offer Rum&Coke in a 4-pack package with a retail price of $10.00. Coke knew from experience that, on average, anyone interested in trying the product would buy a total of 2 packages. Repeat buyers would ultimately buy an average of 10 packages per year.
