Brand Strategy Helps A Personal Grooming Kit Manufacturer Improve Customer Reach and Assess Their Perception of the Brand

Mar 22, 2018

Over the past few years, the global CPG industry has started witnessing a transition from offline to online channels and is mostly affected by factors such as waning currency values and slowing GDP growth. As a result, CPG industry players have started thinking beyond the conventional shopping techniques to develop and boost the shopping experience for customers. Also, due to the changing consumer behavior and needs, firms are embracing technologies to meet the ever-growing array of demands.

The personal grooming industry is one which produces consumer products that are used for personal hygiene and beautification. Some of the products that are included in this category include wet wipes, toilet paper, toothpaste, talcum powder, shaving cream, razors, moisturizer, perfumes, pomade, makeup, lotion, lipstick, lip gloss, deodorant, and colognes. The global market for personal grooming is expected to witness substantial growth over the coming years owing to the rising disposable income of individuals across the globe; thus, enabling them to spend on luxury personal care products. Additionally, while the personal care products segment for women is a prominent category, the introduction of the men’s product line for personal grooming has bolstered the growth of the market.

However, our recent analysis shows that personal grooming companies across the CPG industry are facing challenges in terms of:

  • Move towards digital marketing: The global emergency of e-commerce sites and the migration of the customers to online platforms are forcing companies in the personal grooming space to re-strategize their marketing campaigns to retain and acquire new customers.
  • Highly competitive market: In matters of brand variety, size, international establishment, the personal grooming industry has reached saturation. As a result, the growth margin will decrease as big players try to expand their market share.
