Abstract:
The case discusses the marketing strategies of the US-based motorcycle
manufacturer Harley-Davidson Motor Company (H-D). It details the marketing mix
elements of H-D including product, price, distribution and promotion strategies
of the company.
Notwithstanding the success of H-D's marketing strategies, some critics were of
the opinion that H-D was not focusing on its core competency, i.e. motorcycles,
and said that by putting its logo on several products, the company was diluting
its brand. Analysts also criticized H-D's dealers, saying they still had a long
way to go in maintaining good relationships with the company's customers.
