Seminar paper from the year 2010 in the subject Business economics - Offline Marketing and Online Marketing, , course: Marketing, language: English, abstract: Starbucks is known for the qualitative variety of its products, the exclusive and friendly environment, the helpful and very polite personnel, the information and training on the products and the participation of management in building relationships with customers. Starbucks offers more than 16 blends and types of coffee made of coffee beans Arabica, a large variety of beverages prepared instantly, teas, freshly baked pastries, chocolates, savoury delicacies, sandwiches, salads, etc. Also, at Starbucks a customer can buy coffee specialty products such as coffee machines espresso, coffee grinding machines, mugs and other items related to coffee and tea and CDs, which are original proposal gifts. Despite this wide array of products, Starbucks founder Howard Schultz, in February 2007, decided to close 600 Starbucks stores. This paper examines several reasons that may be advanced for the company's decline, concluding that it would not have happened if Starbucks had stayed in their original form of combining the exclusive cafe with the friendly atmosphere and staff, and above all, good quality coffee. The paper then goes on to explore the changes that the company has made in its marketing strategy since the decline in 2007 as well as the risks and potential benefits from competition, such as best practice examples of marketing in other countries, specifically in Greece.

Book Description
Key Topics Marketing Strategy Retailing Corporate Social Responsibility Globalisation Starbucks is the essential success story of the American capitalist dream. From humble beginnings in 1971 as a Seattle coffee store, it's become a multinational with over 21,000 outlets in 63 countries. Its brand is universally known. How did they do it? Starbucks' success owes a lot to the vision of its guiding light, CEO Howard Schultz, who preaches an almost evangelical brand of caring capitalism, at the same time focusing relentlessly on the customer experience. Acquisition, brand-stretching, social media, and new channel development have all played a part. They put a lot of stress on caring for their staff and the in-store atmosphere. They want customers to feel it's their Starbucks. Good Citizen? CEO Howard Schultz talks about creating a philosophically different business but is it really? Critics point to low pay and scheduling pressures for staff, tax avoidance and, above all, the pittance developing world farmers receive for the coffee beans.
