Question
Read the article about Converse on Boston Magazine “Sneaker Wars: Converse vs. New Balance”
Do further related research and answer the following:
https://www.bostonmagazine.com/news/article/2015/11/24/converse-sneaker-wars/
1. Will changing “The Chuck” and introducing the Chuck II be considered a smart marketing move over time? Why or why not? Use examples of other companies who have changed iconic products to support your position.
2. Is the Converse lawsuit vs. key competitors a good marketing tactic whether or not they win or lose in court or do they need to win? Why?
3. The article quotes a famous line of Coco Chanel’s “Only those with no memory insist on their originality”. How is this quote relevant to the marketing tactics of both Converse and its key competitors?
4. Clearly the fact that “Children take their first steps in them, teens wear them to prom and to graduate, adults get married in them” is a strength, but does this also create challenges in marketing that many other products do not face? How can Converse stay relevant to all these very different target customers and should they even try to do so? Your answer here should address both risks and benefits.
5. Is the fact that they are so imitated necessarily a bad thing? How do companies that have popular products like Converse use the 4 P’s to successfully compete with imitators in the marketplace? Find specific examples.
6. How does Converse differ from most all competing companies and products who constantly need to create new and unique styles to grow their business?
7. Name another company that has a product or style that has survived for decades like the Chuck Taylor All Star. This does not have to be footwear. Are there similarities in marketing tactics employed by the two companies that you can identify? Have they survived just by random luck (right place, right time kind of thing) or have they done specific things that have created their ongoing success?

I was finding it very hard to deal with the object oriented languages in the form of C++ and Java. I did well with C programming but in the latter semester I needed constant assistance from HwA and they had helped me tremendously.
After I moved to Australia to study Computer Science and Engineering, I found out that the things are quite different than what it used to be in the Indian universities. The course structure is much more practical oriented and thus the numbers of assignments are also more. I was clueless and was struggling to cope when I came across HwA. Thanks to them I got through my first two semesters with good grades and that boosted my confidence. Now I am pursuing my post-graduation from a Queensland based reputed technology university and still taking help from HwA.
When I saw the prices of TheReliableTutor law assignment help for New Zealand students I was very skeptical of the quality. But I still gave them a try and lets just say that the quality has been even better than what I had expected. Since the legal assignment experts are practicing professionals from New Zealand they know exactly what is happening in the New Zealand legal world at the moment and help incorporate those into your law assignment and law homework.
Concepts like diffusion between phases often confused me in the past. I used to stumble at each given assignment. However, when I came across HwA, they took time to make me understand and solved all the critical problems, thereby helping me get excellent grades.
Higher order simultaneous equation where I needed to find out values for 5 or 6 variables forming appropriate equations from a given problem, was really my weak area. However, when I came across HwA they helped me and also assisted me to understand how exactly from a problem statement, the equations can be formed and how they can be evaluated.

Hello Allison,I love the 2nd image that you did! I also, had never heard of SumoPaint, is something that I will have to exolpre a bit! I understand completely the 52 (or so) youtube videos that you probably watched. Sometimes they have what you want, sometimes they don't! However, it is always satisfying when you are able to produce something that you have taught yourself. Great job!Debra 0 likes
