SUMMARY
In 2008, Gatorade launched G2, a low-calorie version of Gatorade. G2 first announced itself as an "Off-Field Lifestyle" beverage for leisure drinking occasions. But this positioning wasn't resonating and older athletes were leaving the brand. In 2010, we borrowed the words of Muhammad Ali to reposition G2. Ali's legendary quote, "Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee", communicated the dual product proposition of not filing you up, yet still providing you what you need to perform. As a result, low-calorie awareness increased 75%, driving a year-on-year sales increase of 23%.
