The baking set can be pre-purchased for holidays. Could be a financial loss: 52% of our respondents thought that this product doesnt offer any added benefit Grows brand: This brand extends the consumers idea of what Sprinkles in know for. Allows Sprinkles to engage in new markets. This new brand could dilute the existing brand by causing confusion in the mind of the consumer. New sources of revenue: New markets are viable sources of new revenue for the company. If a failure it could hinder peoples image of the parent brand. Sprinkles should launch the banking set as a limited time holiday product. We recommend this due to its overwhelming desire to be given as a gift. It allows Sprinkles to temporarily expand its portfolio and to generate revenue without bringing negativity to the parent. Our concern for a permanent launch is that our many of our respondents did not see an added benefit. With a short term launch its giftablity is its benefit.
