Implications

Page 40: Doritos Final Presentation

ImplicationsResults ImplicationsDoritos ranked second in unaided awareness and was part of a four way tie for first in aided awareness.

Doritos ranking being so high for both aided and unaided awareness is due to its perceived great taste as well as good advertising. Consumers see the brand as a great tasting snack food with it being ranked first in taste. Also, the advertising for the brand has been affected in a positive manner due to the popular Super Bowl ads they produce every year.

Doritos ranked third in affordable cost. Utz was first in affordable cost when compared to the other brands with Cheetos being second. Since Doritos was ranked third they should keep the price as it is since it only opposes a brand that is perceived to have the worst taste out of all the brands. Since Doritos is perceived to have the best taste, they should not and change their image to look like a cheaper product.

Page 41: Doritos Final Presentation

ImplicationsResults Implications Lays is considered a top competitor of Doritos. For Lays, the brand was scored highest in both

qualitative and quantitative data when asked for the participants favorite snack food. Although Doritos was ranked second for unaided and was ranked high in category motivators, they should pursue different options such as a resalable bag or bigger portion size to compete with Lays for the favorite snack food.

Doritos was last when asked to rank the brands from favorite to least favorite.

When asked to rank the following brands, Doritos average was last compared to all the other brands given. Although they had a 4.38 out of 5 ranking average in satisfaction, they should try to improve their scores with other category motivators such as healthy and portion size to boost their overall ranks when compared to the other brands.

Page 42: Doritos Final Presentation

ImplicationsResults Implications

Doritos lowest ranking in category motivators was healthy.

Doritos is seen by the sampled surveyed as a unhealthy snack, scoring a 1.91 out of 5. although it is high in the other factors, Doritos should explore trying to create healthy alternatives such as a veggie chip to try and boost the perception of healthy to the public.
