  3. Understand Investigate Understanding the Problem Analysis Findings STARBUCKS BACKGROUND • Owns close to 1/3 of America’s coffee bars, more than its next 5 biggest competitors combined • Serves 20 million unique customers in well over 5000 stores around the globe and is opening on average 3 new stores per day • Spends almost nothing on advertising with North American marketing consisting primarily of point-of-sale materials and local-store marketing • 11 consecutive years of 5% or higher comparable store sales growth • Value Proposition: highest quality coffee, “customer intimacy” service, and ambient lounging environment • Believes “Partner satisfaction leads to customer satisfaction” • Has the lowest partner turnover rate of 70% compared to industry average of 300% • Partner satisfaction rate consistently in the range of 80% to 90% range • Controls as much of the supply chain as possible - works directly with growers, oversees custom-roasting process, and controls distribution to retail stores around the world Financials Summary Recommendations Timeline

  4. Understand Investigate Analysis Findings PROBLEMS • Decreasing customer satisfaction • Falling perception of Value Proposition • Not the highest quality coffee • Only 34% of new customers and 51% of established customers believe Starbucks is a high quality brand • Very little image and product differentiation between Starbucks and smaller coffee chains • Lack of strategic marketing group • Market- and customer- related trends/data are not used in marketing decisions • Lack of product consistency • Inconsistent “customer intimacy” service • Lack of service consistency • No CRM database, manages CR one customer at a time • Lost value in ambient lounging environment • Dramatic expansion of its customer base to now include new customers not in its original target market • Current Perception: • Increasing perception, 53% to 61%, that Starbucks only cares about money • Increasing perception, 48% to 55%, that Starbucks only cares about building more stores • Self-cannibalization of at least 1/3 of Starbucks stores everyday due to expansion strategy Financials Summary Recommendations Timeline

  5. Understand Investigate Investigative Approach Analysis "Whenever we have a problem store, we almost always find either an inexperienced store manager or inexperienced baristas. Manager stability is key - it not only decreases partner turnover, but it also enables the store to do a much better job recognizing regular customers and providing personalized services. So our goal is to make the position a lifetime job.“ Findings Financials Summary Recommendations Timeline

  9. Understand Investigate Analysis Findings OBSERVATIONAL DATA - 4/5 • Overall Environment: very pleasant • Pleasant background music • AC at appropriate temperature • Internet access easy to gain • Store, counter and restrooms are clean • Tables are not cleaned after a customer leaves • Open room causes conversations to travel - need headset to block out noise • Lack of Consistency: • Baristas - Some baristas are very friendly and knowledgeable while others are indifferent, unknowledgeable and not customer-oriented • Non-machine drinks - Some drinks are too strong, too weak, too hot, not warm enough, have less ice, taste different, etc. • Drive-thru orders - not always accurate • 3 minute standard - not always met • Condiment Counter- some locations leave condiments on the counter while other locations do not. Not enough milk dispensers during rush hour • Location-oriented issues– see next slide Financials Summary Recommendations Timeline

  23. Understand Investigate Summary Analysis Findings Former Positioning • Starbucks competitive positioning focused on its Value Proposition of highest quality coffee, customer intimacy service and ambient lounging environment. Starbucks was the “third place” separate from home and work. Re-evaluated Positioning • Due to the dramatic expansion of the customer base, Starbucks needs to re-evaluate its positioning to focus on the more important of the three aspects: highest quality coffee. In addition to highest quality coffee, the new target market seeks new technology, a meeting place, and a place to study. There is an added emphasis on quick and accurate service versus intimacy and an ambient lounging environment. Financials Summary Recommendations Timeline
