This episode discusses the marketing strategy behind Ajinomoto's "Cook Do Oyster Sauce Genkai-men" (Limit Noodles) campaign, which aims to expand the use of oyster sauce beyond traditional stir-fries.

It introduces two key marketing concepts: Category Entry Points (CEP), which refer to the moments consumers realize they need a certain product category, and Brand Entry Points (BEP), the subsequent stage where consumers decide which specific brand to choose.

The "Genkai-men" pop-up restaurant, offering cheap meals, targeted consumers experiencing financial and time constraints, serving as a CEP by addressing their need for affordable and easy home cooking. Furthermore, the campaign's low price point and positive brand experience worked as a BEP by encouraging trials and fostering a favorable image of Cook Do Oyster Sauce, increasing its market share by connecting these two entry points.
