Describe how Red Bull's creator trusted his entrepreneurial instincts instead of relying on traditional marketing research to make it so globally successful

What will be an ideal response?

Dietrich Mateschitz, Red Bull's creator, trusted his entrepreneurial instincts instead of relying on traditional marketing research. As Mateschitz recalls, "When we first started, we said that there is not an existing market for Red Bull, but Red Bull will create it. And this is what finally became true." In other words, Mateschitz succeeded at accomplishing one of the most basic goals in marketing: He discovered a market segment with needs that weren't being met by any existing product. Today, Red Bull's blue-and-silver cans emblazoned with the iconic charging bulls logo are recognized around the globe. With typical entrepreneurial flair, Mateschitz pursues alternatives to orthodox advertising strategies and tactics. The Red Bulletin is a monthly magazine produced by Red Bull Media House. Red Bull distributes more than 3 million copies of each issue through newsstand sales, subscriptions, and as a free iPad app. The magazine is available in Austria, Germany, Great Britain, Kuwait, New Zealand, Poland, and South Africa. In 2011, The Red Bulletin was launched in the United States; 1.2 million free copies were distributed in major newspapers such as The Los Angeles Times, The Chicago Tribune, and The New York Daily News. The first U.S. issue featured San Francisco Giants pitcher Tim Lincecum, one of hundreds of athletes who are sponsored by Red Bull. Since 1998, Red Bull has been involved in another high-profile initiative. The Red Bull Music Academy is a series of concerts, workshops, art installations, and other cultural events that rotate from year to year among different international cities. Red Bull Music Academy also sponsors stages at international music festivals such as Montreaux Jazz; RBMA Radio is a Web resource where listeners can access new music, live concerts, interviews, and other content. Needless to say, the Red Bull logo is visible everywhere, and coolers filled with the drink are placed in strategic locations.
