Then, TMTG developed a phone-base survey to interview 80 decision makers across 8 countries in Europe quantifying the percentage of customers who preferred diagnostic versus non-diagnostic CT, as well as measure perception by type of product and brand. The study revealed that a segment of the market was in favour of diagnostic solutions regardless of price. Based on the in-depth analysis provided by TMTG, the Client was able to identify the larger segment to target the non-diagnostic device at the appropriate price using appropriate messaging.

CHALLENGE

IMPACT

The Client, a prominent international medical company specializing in SPECT-CT technol-ogy, was interested in an analysis to better understand customers’ preferences in the non-diagnostic and diagnostic SPECT-CT market. More specifically, the Client wanted to understand why customers preferred higher-end diagnostic CT SPECT-CT models with marginal added clinical value over the more economical non-diagnostic CT product version.

The Client needed to understand the key factors driving the purchases of the more expensive diagnostic SPECT-CT devices over non-diagnostic devices in Europe. Addition-ally, the Client wanted to know how the customers perceived its brand and models and how it compared to the competitors’.

SOLUTIONThe MarkeTech Group (TMTG) developed a two pronged approach. First, In-Depth Interviews (IDIs) were conducted with 12 nuclear department decision makers (physicists/nuclear physicians) to understand any personal or institutional preferences on the CT component. Then, TMTG developed a phone-base survey to interview 80 decision makers across 8 countries in Europe quantifying the percentage of customers who preferred diagnostic versus non-diagnostic CT, as well as measure perception by type of product and brand.

The study revealed that a segment of the market was in favour of diagnostic solutions regardless of price. Based on the in-depth analysis provided by TMTG, the Client was able to identify the larger segment to target the non-diagnostic device at the appropriate price using appropriate messaging.
