  • Publication number: 20070156515
    Abstract: A method and system for marketing a consumer product is disclosed. According to the method, attitudinal information and purchase behavioral information is obtained from a plurality of consumers. For instance, consumers may be surveyed regarding their attitudes about purchasing a product category and about the amount of product contained in the product category that they purchase over a given length of time. The attitudinal data and the purchase behavioral data is then integrated together creating a plurality of consumer segments. The consumer segments are grouped together based upon commonalities. Based upon loyalty to a particular brand and a volume sales objective for the brand, increased penetration into the consumer segments may be calculated in order to meet the volume objectives. One of the consumer segments may then be targeted for marketing purposes.

  • Patent number: 6896379
    Abstract: A mirror assembly has a pair of telescoping tubular supports extending between a support base and a mirror head to provide adjustment of the mirror head toward and away from the support base. Friction shoes within the tubular supports releasably hold such supports against unintentional telescoping movement. Cooperating stops on the telescoping supports limit outward movement of the mirror head and prevent complete separation of the telescoping supports. The tubular supports are hingedly attached to the support base for rotation about a vertical axis, and cooperating detents and spring elements on the supports and support base releasably hold the supports against rotation.

  • Patent number: 4738847
    Abstract: A multi-ply absorbent product, such as a facial tissue, comprising a virucidal composition substantially confined to the middle of the product reduces or eliminates any stinging response associated with contacting the virucidal composition with certain sensitive parts of the body, such as the eyes and nose, yet simultaneously retains virucidal efficacy.
