Given the addition of ice cream/ chocolate/ whipped cream in all the 4
flavors:
1. This product should be aimed at anybody who wants a fun filled coffee
experience
2. This eliminates the serious coffee enthusiast, who may not want the
above additives in his cup of coffee
3. Age group would be from 5 to 35
So the target consumers could be
1. college going kids who want to try something new (i.e. other than ice
cream) OR those who frequent cafes & prefer creamy coffees in general
hence the above offering feels tailor made for them
2. Kids having their first taste of an adult drink minus the bitterness
3. Parents who frequent HP with their kids
4. The Fragola Frapuccino should be popular choice from the ladies & in
general the Gujarati crowd of Mumbai who are always on the lookout for
new flavors to try out

Youngsters may find it hard to pronounce “Cofficionados” & this may
make it difficult to identify themselves with the brand
On the other hand the name “Cofficionados” OR Coffee Aficionados
epitomizes people who are fans of the type of coffee that HP serves.
Our suggestion is to retain the meaning while making the wording
simpler. How about Koffee Nados, with the tag line Fans of rich frothy
coffee
Cofficionados - treat yourself !
Looking at the outlet location, print & outdoor media would be the perfect
medium to promote the offering - Cofficionados.
Since we have 7 locations spread across the city, the advertising ideas are
generic and not relevant only to one particular idea.
It could be placed on the table as a small standee (made out of cardboard etc, e.g.:
which we usually see for McDonalds at their stores)

The Hokey Pokey brand name is not limited to only Ice creams. It can be
extended to other products as well. The brand name is not specific to any
culture or country and can be extended across geographical boundaries. It is
not something which will appeal to only a particular segment. The appeal
extends from kids to adults.
Adaptability
A brand has to adapt with time. Although Hokey Pokey is only an year old it
has already adapted by introducing ‘Cofficionados’ by identifying the trend of
increasing coffee consumption by the youth. It is difficult to predict what the
future entails but Hokey Pokey can adapt quickly to changing consumer needs
as the brand is not only associated with ice creams in the minds of the
consumers.
Protectability
Brand name of Hokey Pokey is such that the brand recall is more among
the mind of the consumers. The logo and the jingle create a niche’ for the
brand. The packaging is also in such a way that the brand name is clearly
visible on the products.
Meaningfulness
The brand evokes the verbal imagery of thoughts. You think of coffee and
what pops up is the name of the brand. The visual appeal of the logo
tempts you to go and grab a cup of coffee for yourself. It creates value for
the consumers by the prima facie looks of it.
