Today, she puts on her trendy Lacoste Polo and Diesel Jeans, and of course, she always has her Nike shoes on. After having called her friends with her new Samsung camera phone, she leaves her apartment and goes to her gym by motorbike, while listening to her favorite music that she downloaded to her iPod. Trinh usually likes to work out before she has to head to University.On her way to school, Trinh knows she is thirsty and she feels the need for something very refreshing.
She stops at a convenience store next to the gym. Standing in front of all the choices in the beverages aisle, one particular bottle catches her sight. And she instantly recognizes the brand. She knows that this is a bottle of Khong Do Green Tea, because not only does her other friend often drink it, but she also heard them talk about this brand new product that THP Group Co. just launched. She also previously saw Khong Do Green Tea ads when she surfed on her favorite websites and on TV as well.
She grabs a bottle, and takes a closer look at the nutritive information label. She is very pleased to see that the new drink is more nutritive and definitely healthier than the other soft drinks that were available on the shelves next to it. The higher price of the productdoesn't bother him, since she perceives "Khong Do Green Tea" as a high-quality, functional product, which is manufactured by a well-known company. Plus, she did not feel like simply buying bottled water, or carbonated soft drinks. Because of her inclination towards more sophisticated tastes, and because she likes to try new products on her own, she thinks this bottle is worth the price.
Because of her busy schedule, Trinh prefers to save time as much as she can.Thus, she decides to buy two bottles. One to quench her immediate thirst, and another one that she wants to save for later in the day. She sees that the packaging is so convenient and easy to carry, and so when she exits the store, she puts the second bottle in her backpack. She attends all of her classes. During her break, she always hangs out with her friends.
A lot of them are drinking from different "Khong Do Green Tea" flavors. She opens her second bottle, since she had such a great experience with the first one. She liked that the beverage was so unusual, yet refreshing. The drink surpassed many of her expectations. She has no doubt about it.
Trinh will continue to buy Khong Do Green Tea for its good taste, and also because at her age, she sees it is the coolest trend right now.
