Harley-Davidson was at the brink in 1985 -- days from bankruptcy.
New financing stemmed the tide. But to turn around its operations, Harley had to get back to basics. Its efforts over the past decade come right from Marketing 101 and the so-called four P's.

Product: Quality, branding and packaging play a part.
Price: Includes discounts and credit terms.
Place: Where the product is sold and how distribution channels work.
