Eric Clucas is a doctor of sorts, He diagnoses com- mercials and works with the three major breweries — Molson’s, Labatts and Car- ling O'Keefe, spotting weak; nesses in their advertising’ and offering cures. And he says the fact drinkers can’t tell the beers apart is.the most important thing the breweries should 4 remember. “You will find some peo- ple who can tell the dif- ference between an ale and a lager, but even they will make mistakes," he says. © “We've taken four brands of beer with no labels or identification showing and taste-tested them with, let's *E say abou ‘in’ people; asking thom thely preference.

But Cartier, the Paris-based designer for jet setters, isn’t flattered. In the last 12 years, Cartier has developed a startling record for selling high-quality — and high- priced — consumer goods ranging ‘from watches and lighters to leather goods and _ Scarves. From an estimated 4,000 before capitalizing on real _ opportunities for expanding trade with fast-growing Pac- ifie markets, experienced customers a year in 1968, Les Must de Cartier has grown to one million, says president Alain Perrin. Worldwide sales this year will total $215 million. Perrin, 38, makes no bones about the snob appeal - of his firm's goods, or the elite social circle where he finds customers. Canadian business spokes- men in Hong Kong agree. “Asia is Japan’s back- yard,” says Pat Noonan, “You wort find a plastic ease bearing, the Cartier name, just so we could sell it at Woolworths.” The problem is, how- — ever, that the, Cartier name has become sq ‘successful it has attracted tu host of cheap imitations, ranging from products that try to look similar to Cartier's to out- + right counterfeits. “People look to Cartier for quality and reputation,” he says. “We have provided both for 150 years and we are not going to change. FIGHTS IMITATIONS Perrin says Cartier will spend $3 million this year fighting imitations.

TORONTO (GP) }©Small retailers are in grow- } Zing danger of being squeezed iZout of shopping malls by H rising costs, industry spokes- . men say. H A recent market survey ifby A. EB. LePage Ltd. of ifToronto found that many independent retailers are 'glikely to be driven out of shopping centres, particular- ly those built in the 1960s and ‘70s and in need of reno- vation. Increasing costs “could prove the death knell for those tenants unable to pro- duce sales in excess of $200 per square foot,” LePage said. . The Canadian Federa- tion of Independent Business is about to conduct a survey of its members on the topic. An official of the feder- ation said retailers are be- wildered by the number and variety of cost increases passed on by landlords on top of ‘rent, including advertis- ing, maintenance and admin- istrative costs. “The uncertainty makes : it impossible for retailers to i budget,” the official said. : The Retail Council of }Canada has formed a com- feeling squeeze , Goulais said the com- mittee is trying to smooth out some of the wrinkles in the relationship between shopping centre landlords and tenants, partly by de- termining which charges are valid. For example, since land- lords ean rightfully pass on repair and maintenance costs but must finance capital ex- penditures out of profits, it becomes important to figure out which is which. Goulais said shopping centre charges affect his own company severely, even though it is not a small business, with almost 600 re- tail stores in operation across Canada under such names as Fairweather, Tip Top Tailors and Thrifty's. - Castlegar Sunfest 80.

He hopes to have 50 or 60 outlets established across the coun- try by the end of next year, with a total of 100 eventually. Probably the best known Cartier product is its watch, which starts at a price of $1,200. Despite the price, Cartier expects to sell 85,000 of them this year around athe - world. ‘For those, dollars, the customer gets a_ lifetime guarantee of quality, plus the Cartier name. “We control every step of the operation from design to prototypes ‘and final pro- duction,” Perrin says. “Even when we sub- contract some of the work, we keep control of every, + step.

Earlier this week, Air Canada filed for a 9.5-per-cent increase and CP Air has announced, similar plans. Spokesmen say the in- creases are needed to cover rising operating costs as a result of high fuel prices and general inflation. to invest in time, money and * people. Perhaps the greatest barrier cited by Hong Kong spokesmen is the reluctance of Canadian firms to test the trade waters of the Pacific. North America is a pol- tically stable, economically says. : Psychographics, he ex- plains, is the. study of the ‘psychological dimension peo- ple use unconciously when deciding to buy something. The psychologists found that certain kinds of people tend to buy certain beers, DESCRIBES DRINKERS ~ .. Asked to describe drink-. ers of Molson'’s Export Ale, for example, Sinipson read from a report which says: “They tend to be more male oriented, more matter of fact, more practical. They have'a high energy tevel, and most important, realistic and strong friendship needs. They are Joe and the boys and they're the core of the beer market.” Labatt’s and Carling O'Keefe also use psycho- graphics to sell lifestyles and beer, The Labatt’s Grand Prix drinker — or targeted drink- er — for instance is still a student, says David Lewis, the company's marketing dir- ector. This means that Grand Prix is looking for people still in the early stages of their drinking lives, the best time tocement brand loyalties.
