For teenagers, pizza is considered one of the main four food groups (especially for college students.) Dominos Pizza has not become acceptable to the average teenager’s eye; instead, it is perceived as being un-cool. Everyday men and women are becoming increasingly more health conscious. The inclination towards a healthier life style or dietary preferences has created a demand for healthy and nutritious foods. However, Dominos Pizza has become more dependent on its pizza product. Any decrease in demand would have an adverse affect on the business. Growing health conscious, in the minds of the people, may result in lower sales of fast food such as pizza, which would affect the revenues of growth within the company.

Even though Dominos is rated one of the top pizza deliverers, their market shares have declined from 55% to 43 % and profits have fallen from 2.65 billon- 2.5 billon. Dominos Pizza Vice-president blames the recent decline on advertising. Dominos Pizza decided that they needed a new identity to appeal to the teen segment. Grays’ advertising decided that a good step for Dominos Pizza is to show their quality ingredients and their fast free delivery but in a cool upbeat way that would attract the teen’s attention.

Dominos has a pretty polished online system of operation. Online ordering is set up to be quick and easy. Customers have the option to register on the site, track their order, get nutritional information and be able to create a unique pizza by using the pizza creation interface and are able to send it to the closest Dominos without having to look up the phone number.

Dominos decided to come up with a fun and exciting advertising campaign targeted to teens that would strengthen the company’s image. It would show the quality of goods and fast free delivery to be promoted in a new cool appealing way to the teens. Dominos felt that offering a “freebie” would be a great start to attract the teen’s attention; so they came up with a slogan “Something for nothing”. After picking the slogan, they hired music companies to come up with a catchy way to sing about it. After they picked a cool song, they decided to have a Domino character of a 17 year old boy that is dressed up in high fashion wearing ray bans, expensive clothing. They gave him an attitude that made him appear cool to the teenage eye. This ad ended up containing all ages, races and sex. The ad campaign confused the audiences when a girl walked on eating a salad– a new domino product that would be the first nothing for something giveaway. At that moment, when the commercial switched to the girl, the singer sings “really something”. Bob Skoller, Dominos vice president, said that they meant to have four meanings all combined into one. This advertising was originally only meant to target teens and ended up not having a very comprehensible and clear image to the targeted consumer.
