It identifies target demographics and psychographic characteristics for popular toothpaste brands like Sensodyne, Pepsodent G+, Close Up, Colgate, and Meswak.

Brand positioning is analyzed based on benefit sought, demographic traits, behavioral characteristics, and psychographic characteristics. Findings show Colgate, Pepsodent, and Close Up are commonly used, while consumer preferences are driven by cleaning power, habit, brand loyalty, taste, preventative qualities, and packaging attributes.
