How was vegemite marketed in Australian public?
Part of Vegemite's marketing involved a competition, involving the public, to choose a suitable name for the new spread when it was first developed. A trade name competition was held to find a name for the new product, and the winning name of Vegemite was chosen from the entries by Walker's daughter Sheilah, by being picked at random out of a hat. Initially, sales were slow and, because of the competition from rival product Marmite, Vegemite underwent a temporary name change to "Parwill", under the slogan "If Marmite ... then Parwill". That, too, was unsuccessful. In 1937, another competition was launched to create interest. This was a limerick contest in which large prizes were offered, including a Pontiac car. This was a successful promotion, and enough to launch Vegemite's success.
