About this deal

Attar had originally tried to get in on that settlement, but was turned down because he was Canadian. So he filed his own lawsuit, citing studies debunking the purported benefits of taurine, a chemical in many energy drinks. (Taurine also occurs naturally in fish and beef.) The cookie is set by the GDPR Cookie Consent plugin and is used to store the summary of the consent given for cookie usage. It does not store any personal data. By using such vague terms as "shall provide . . . the trademark" or "[t]he trademark is part of the assets of the company", to describe its investment in the joint venture, Tencel opened the door for the joint venture to argue that the ownership of the trademark had, in fact, been transferred.

This argument was, of course, groundless, but precise wording in the joint venture agreement would have avoided the litigation altogether. So, when Red Bull said it "gives you wings", what it basically meant was that it stimulates your nervous system, reduces drowsiness, and makes you feel so cool and active. Thus, you feel light and energetic. And it does, isn't it? Many even take it as a lite version of hard drinks! Gosh! So, now you know, it didn't literally give you wings'. Rather, it is a metaphor (a word that carries a different underlying meaning and not its literal interpretation). And what did Red Bull plan to achieve, you ask? See, Red Bull's niche target market is the youth, and the youth wants mystery and vigour in all endeavours. Therefore, in a bid to entice the youth, they came up with this brilliant ad. As intended, the plane took off and the result... Red Bull became the most consumed energy drink in the world.From leveraging TikTok, the most popular social media platform of the moment, to ingeniously using influencer marketing, moving forward, we’ll deconstruct and dive into some of Red Bull’s most successful marketing strategies.

What is fascinating about Red Bull's video marketing strategy is that although the main video concept remains the same for all platforms used, the brand's content is unique on all three channels. Litigation relating to joint investment and trademark licensing can be complex and costly, particularly if the parties' agreement did not foresee and carefully describe what would happen upon the termination of their relationship. Two famous cases concerning soft drinks in China provide an interesting illustration: In 2006, Tencel transferred all its shares in the joint venture and decided not to renew the trademark licence. Red Bull China tried to force the renewal of the licence, but failed. Then, realising that it would be impossible to force Tencel to renew the trademark licence, Red Bull China shifted its strategy. Relying on the terms of the 1995 joint venture agreement, it claimed that the trademark had been transferred to the joint venture. Though Red Bull stood up to the claim settlement, it didn't admit its wrongdoing. Or so to say, Red Bull still believed in its' wings'. This is what the company officially stated -- "Red Bull settled the lawsuit to avoid the cost and distraction of litigation. However, Red Bull maintains that its marketing and labelling have always been truthful and accurate, and denies any and all wrongdoing or liability."Judging by the number of views each of Red Bull's YouTube Shorts has recorded and by the brand's overall YouTube performance, integrating this type of content seems to have been a smart move. However, when conducting a competitive analysis, it's equally important to keep in mind that different businesses can have different objectives for the same social media channel. JDB proceeded to register and use a different Chinese trademark, JIA DUO BAO, and sell the herbal tea under the JIA DUO BAO trademark affixed on the red can. In August 1997, Yangcheng Tonic Factory assigned the WANG LAO JI trademark to Guangzhou Pharmaceutical Holding (GPH), which continued the production and sale of the herbal tea in the green container. Red Bull is in it to win it when it comes to getting the brand's targeted audience's attention by capitalizing on all the major video networks' viewership potential.

The agreement provided, in general terms, that "Tencel shall provide . . . the trademark" and "[t]he trademark is part of the assets of the company". However, the Chinese trademark was never assigned by Tencel to Red Bull China, which operated under a trademark licence. This leads to the same conclusion as in the Red Bull case: if the owner of the WANG LAO JI trademark, when signing the licence agreement, had specified that all rights attached to the trademark, including the red can, were to return to the licensor at the termination of the agreement, litigation might have been avoided. He claimed Red Bull violated the Quebec Consumer Protection Act by claiming it was more effective than a lower-priced offering, like a cup of coffee. The brand puts its audience first - by creating content with which its followers and communities could resonate;In 1998, Hung To set up a wholly owned subsidiary called Dongguan Jia Duo Bao Drink & Food Co, Ltd (JDB), which carried on the production and sale of the herbal tea using the red can. Written by Misum Hossain, Founder, & Reshmi Hossain, IP & Commercial Law Specialist, of Lincoln Legal Chambers Through its combined marketing campaigns - some more unconventional than others - Red Bull has succeeded in becoming the top-of-mind brand for its core audience - young adults who are looking for an energy boost. In May 2012, GPH licensed the WANG LAO JI mark to its subsidiary Guangdong Wanglaoji Grand Health Co, Ltd, which started using the trademark with the red can.

And like Bill Gates says, "Your most unhappy customers are your greatest source of learning." This time, they realised and were cautioned. And thus, they changed their ad slogan to "Red Bull gives you wiiings." This was another clever shot, whereby this time, none could sue Red Bull because there won't be any dictionary meaning of 'wiiings' (with 3 i's), while it would still sound like 'wings'! A superb idea, indeed. dunnhumby’s customer knowledge capabilities, science and tools, empowered Red Bull to become a partner to the retailer and make customer-centric assortment decisions. This data-driven approach also helped to increase the retailer’s commitment, who agreed to test the recommendations in several stores.Red Bull is an energy drink offered by Red Bull GmbH, an Austrian private company founded in 1984. It's the brainchild of Austrian entrepreneur Dietrich Mateschitz (it's okay, we also couldn't pronounce) and Thai businessman Chaleo Yoovidhya. Also, just so you know, the founders are among the top two richest persons of their respective countries. The brand creates dedicated content for each short-form video platform leveraged to reach multiple audiences Apart from being about soft drinks, the Wang Lao Ji and Red Bull cases share an important commonality: the plaintiff, the ex-licensee, claimed that even if the licence was terminated, the success of the brand was due to its efforts and should, therefore, be rewarded. All in all, the numbers can indicate the more successful social media strategy only up to some extent.
