TARGET
MARKETING
|
| |
RJR cancelled a planned
test market of Uptown following a surge
of protest from the African-American community
in Philadelphia and protests from the
Secretary of the Department of Health
and Human Services, Louis W. Sullivan,
M.D. Uptown was never put on the market.
A unique feature of its packaging was
that the filters were placed at the bottom
of the pack. (1990)
RJR developed Dakota for "virile
females". It was test marketed
in Houston. (1990) (Alan Blum, M.D.) |
