Roger Federer’s TEAM8: Launching the Laver Cup

Anita Elberse

Roger Federer, widely regarded as the best tennis player in the history of the sport, walked onto the court to thunderous applause during in the second edition of the Laver Cup in September 2018. Named after tennis legend Rod Laver, the Cup pitted many of the greatest players from Europe against those from the rest of the world. Federer was more than one of the Laver Cup’s main stars—he was an owner and co-creator. In fact, the idea for the event had originated in his boutique company TEAM8, which he co-founded in 2013 with his agent and business partner Tony Godsick. The Laver Cup’s success had not gone unnoticed in the world of tennis. With traditional tennis tournaments such as the Davis Cup attracting new investors and with governing bodies such as the Association of Tennis Professionals planning to relaunch their team event, the competition for top players and for desirable slots on an already very full tennis calendar was stronger than ever before. Was TEAM8’s Laver Cup well-positioned for long-term success?

Whiskey and Cheddar: Ingredient Branding at the Caesan Cheese Cooperative (Brief Case)

John A. Quelch and Katherine B. Hartman

The Caesan Cheese Cooperative is considering introducing a new high-quality, high-margin artisan whiskey cheddar cheese. Deidra Kelly, vice president of marketing and product development at Caesan, must recommend to the Board of Directors whether to launch the product using Jameson® whiskey as a branded ingredient or using a generically branded whiskey. Use of the branded ingredient would involve a licensing agreement with a leading spirits and wine distributor, Pernod Ricard USA (PR-U). Evaluation of the options requires an assessment of the product-company fit, product-market fit, marketing program, licensing agreement, breakeven sales volume, and achievement of the targeted sales goal. The case focuses on evaluating new product opportunities, specifically regarding product-company fit and product-market fit. In addition, the case allows students to discuss the power of branding and entering strategic partnerships to drive revenue. Students must also use their quantitative skills, such as conducting breakeven analyses and understanding the impact of licensing costs on gross profit margins. The case can be used to discuss product strategy, positioning, branding, and partnerships. It is recommended for upper-level undergraduate students or MBA students in courses focused on marketing strategy, product development and management, or branding.
