BACKGROUND:

The KYOTA Marketing team has marketed the KYOTO brand very successfully in Korea since the mid 90's. It had only recently been the last 5 years that they began the analysis and research to infiltrate the American market. KYOTA understands customers interested in economically being able to afford a vehicle that will show luxury for a minimal investment. The owner, Bob Loblaw (Kusuki), had invented a new automobile that appears as a luxury car but at the price of an economy car. His mission is to provide a product to People that looks like a million bucks but cost less than $22,000.00 with top line speakers and stereo system that the music melts as it is delivered. KYOTA tirelessly worked with customers and fellow Korean distributors to understand the best approach for Mr. Loblaw (Kusuki) to introduce his new LANCEL 4000 to the market. With help from Marketing Solutions, Loblaw (Kusuki) has grown and become one of the largest distributors of automobiles throughout Korea. KYOTA uses their focus on hard work, communication and developed partnerships with clients to play a competitive role in the marketing needs of an affordable car that appears as a luxury car.

POSITIONING:

Our position is that we are going to provide a beautiful cost effective vehicle, that appeals to all of the targets. It will provide front disc brakes, crash shields that can be compared to the safest make in the US. The "VOLVO". It has the luxury appearance of the more expensive model, the 4 door support for a family and the sporty look that anyone will be proud to drive. It also has an advantage that most Sedans do not. The average Sedan is 12 inches from the ground making them hard for baby boomers to enter and exit. The LANCEL 4000 is 15 inches from the ground and is easy to enter and exit. Another advantage of the LANCEL 4000, unlike most Sports Sedans that has minimal head space the LANCEL has excellent head space for anyone who is 5' 10- 6'4". These unique features are what will give the LANCEL 4000 the competitive advantage against other Sedans. Our target market will respond well to these features and find it easy to join the fast growing number of customers that are falling in love with the LANCEL 4000 2013.
