Grafica, Inc.: Winning the New Jersey Lottery (A)
Abstract
Debra Taeschler, CEO of Grafica, is considering how to structure her agency's bid for the New Jersey Lottery account. The Lottery is facing declining sales in all major categories and plans to slash its 1999 marketing budget by 32%. Taeschler is debating whether to take a conservative approach and submit a bid that builds on the Lottery's current product-focused marketing strategy or take a riskier approach and advocate an entirely new umbrella branding campaign.
