4 P’s of GT’s Kombucha

Unlike my early twenties, I'm not a huge drinker anymore. There is no significant reason other than the fact that I genuinely enjoy feeling my best. So when there are times I want something more than water, I reach for GT's Kombucha. I find the taste incredibly refreshing and thirst-quenching. It's interesting to apply the 4 P's to their product, too.

Product 

By definition, kombucha is fermented tea. But GT's sells it as a wellness beverage that promotes gut health. They have many flavors (my favorite is Guava Goddess) and a few different product lines. 

Price 

Their kombucha sure isn't cheap! They use a value-add price strategy. For a 16oz bottle, you're spending around $3.59. But hey, it is still less expensive than alcohol, so I can easily justify it. 

Place

Initially, the only place you could find kombucha was Whole Foods and select grocery stores. But they have since expanded, and now you can find GT's at nearly all grocery stores and even in gas stations. 

Promotion

What started as a family-owned business that made its start by offering samples has grown tremendously. They do a lot of influencer marketing by partnering with food bloggers who focus on a healthy lifestyle. 

What I think made GT's a success is that they did not overcomplicate any of the 4 P's. They stayed authentic to who they are while offering a delicious drink to consumers.

Hi everyone! I'm Dana Podgurski!

I'm a foot in the mouth, tongue in cheek, head in the clouds, and heart on the sleeve kind of gal. I live for new experiences, but am a total sucker for nostalgia at the same time. I'm tough as nails, but am a complete softie for all things kids and animal-related. I fly by the seat of my pants, and live for adventure. But I firmly believe that adventure is a mindset that one's self determines.

For work, I am a marketer through and through. Bringing brands to life, and content marketing are passions of mine. Many would consider what I do as nerdy, but I seriously dig it. I have been doing marketing contract work for years, and appreciate the variety it brings, and the relationships I've developed with my clients. If you're interested in a partnership, click here.

For fun, I love to create - writing/blogging, photography, and painting are my main three mediums of doing so. Feeling good and healthy is also high on my list, as it really lends itself to making everything more enjoyable. So I maintain a very active lifestyle, eat pretty healthy, and am outdoors as much as I can be. And if my blog didn't make it abundantly clear, I absolutely LOVE to travel (near and far) and go on adventures. I spend any extra money I have on tickets and feel so fortunate to have been to several amazing destinations both domestically and internationally. There's nothing more fulfilling than coming home from a trip and adding a been-there-pin to my map.

Cheers!

Dana
