Understanding Customers

Customer analysis

What are the customer’s needs and wants?

What are the sources of value for the customer from our product?

How do they make decisions and shop?

What consumer research do we have that informs us about our customers?

Major questions

What motivates your customer? What is the product’s primary source of value to him or her?

What does the product say about you?Based on intangible, psychosocial attributes: the “augmented product”

How does the product make you feel?Based on intangible or aesthetic attributes

Customer analysis

• Surveys can be done in a broad array of ways:– Unstructured, one‐on‐one, phone or in‐person

– Online questions  ‐more structured

– Conjoint – highly structured!

• Survey everyone! Administrators, doctors, patients, regulators (if you can find them)

• Consider surveying competitors! And if you don’t, perhaps use a third party to do so as long as they disclose their client.

OLD‐FASHIONED SURVEYS ARE BEST FOR MOST B‐TO‐B SITUATIONS!

Conjoint

• Conjoint is easily one of the most powerful tools in the marketer’s toolbox.

• While it can be expensive, the rewards can be huge.

• Use it when very close to going to market

Simply Spending More on R&D May Not Work

• Booz, Allen study looked at six years of data for 1,000 publicly traded companies

• R&D spending (top 10%, mid 80%, bottom 10%)

• Six years financial results

• Mid 80% spenders did as well as top 10% spenders (bottom 10% did worse)

• Study found that better oversight and culture were most important in predicting financial results

• “It is the culture, the skills and the process more than the absolute amount of money available.” – Barry Jaruzelski, Booz, Allen

Crossing the chasmIs there a chasm between the early 

adopters and the early majority?

– Different motivations for purchase• Early adopters are visionaries, willing to take risks with untested products to gain competitive advantage; willing to help publicize innovation

• Early majority are pragmatists who want to be sure product works before adopting; only buy from category leader

– Require different positionings and strategies• Key approach: target a single early majority member, make them happy, and use that customer as a “beachhead” to attract others

Applying the Bass Model

• The Bass model tracks adoption.

• This is easy for durables (e.g. Blu‐ray players) in the early years, as purchase = adoption. 

• One caveat: beware of replacement sales in later years; model can be adjusted for this

• For consumables and package goods where repeat purchase is critical, the Bass Model may help predict first‐time trial, but would need to be extended to capture repurchase rates, etc.

Wait until you have early sales data and use regression, 

OR work by analogy:

• Select similar products for which a fairly complete diffusion history is available 

• Obtain the diffusion model parameters for innovation and imitation for these products

• Estimate market potential m for the new innovation through management judgment or survey research

• Conduct scenario analysis

ACCORD

Product lifecycle

Other factors influencing diffusion

Characteristics of Innovation (Roger’s ACCORD):

• Relative Advantage

• Compatibility with current behaviors

• Complexity in communicating the benefits

• Observability of the product’s benefits

• Riskiness (What if the product fails to work?)

• Divisibility (Sometimes called trialability)

ACCORD Example

• Relative Advantage?

– Not much of an advantage over regular butter. May go on more easily, but might have different texture and taste. Not useful for cooking.

• Compatibility with current behaviors?

– Very similar to current behavior

• Complexity in communicating the benefits?

– Not complex; easy to explain

• Observability of benefits?

– Immediate observability in use

• Riskiness (What if the product fails to work?)

– Might not taste good. Waste of money if not useful. Does it make you look silly?

• Divisibility (trialability)?

– Easy to purchase a single unit for trial

Applying ACCORD

If several of the characteristics are negative, adoption may be slower than average 

Make adjustments to Bass Model parameters accordingly

Identification of negative characteristics provides guidance for changes to the marketing mix

For example, high financial risk may suggestthe need for 30‐day free returns or other guarantees

Low divisibility may suggest that consumers need a better way to trial the product
