The systematic search for new-product ideas.y Internal Idea source
y External Idea Source
y The purpose of idea generation is to create a largenumber of ideas.
y
y The purpose of the screening stages is to reduce that
number.
y Product development costs rise greatly in later stages, sothat the company wants to go ahead only with theproduct ideas that will turn into profitable products.
Stage 1: Idea Generation
8/3/2019 MKT 201 - Lect 5 - Part 2 -New Prod Dev
14/42
Stage 1: Idea Screening
y Screening new-product ideas in order to spot goodideas and drop poor ones as soon as possible
y Many companies require their executives to writeup new-product ideas on a standard form that can
be reviewed by a new-product committee.
8/3/2019 MKT 201 - Lect 5 - Part 2 -New Prod Dev

Stage1:Idea screening
y The write-up describes:
The product
The target market The competition
Rough estimates of market size,
-product price,
- development time and costs,- manufacturing costs and rate of return.
The company then evaluates the idea against a set of general criteria.

Stage 2Market Strategy Development
y Is defined as designing an initial marketing strategy for a newproduct based on the product concept and for introduction tothe market. The marketing strategy statement consists ofthree parts:
I. The first part describes the target market; the plannedproduct positioning; and the sales, market share, and profitgoals for the next two years.
II. The second part outlines the products planned price,distribution, and marketing budget for the first year.
III. The third part of the marketing strategy describes theplanned long-run sales, profit goals, and marketing mixstrategy.

Stage 2 Business Analysis
y Once management has decided on its product conceptand marketing strategy, it can evaluate the businessattractiveness of the proposal.
y Business analysis involves a review of the sales, costs,and profit projections for a new product to find out
whether they satisfy the companys objectives.
y If they do, the company can move to the productdevelopment stage.
y To estimate sales, the company might look at the saleshistory of similar products and conduct surveys of market opinion.
8/3/2019 MKT 201 - Lect 5 - Part 2 -New Prod Dev
20/42
Stage 2 - Business Analysis
After preparing the sales forecast, managementestimates the expected costs and profits for the productincluding:
marketing, R&D, operations, accounting, and financecosts.
The company then uses the sales and costs figures toanalyze the new products financial attractiveness.
Management needs to estimate whether sales will behigh enough to return a satisfactory profit to the firm.

Product Developmenty So far, for many new-product concepts, the product may have
existed only as aword, description, a drawing, or perhaps acrude mock-up.
y If the product concept passes the business test, it moves into
product development.
y At this stage, R & D or engineering develops the productconcept into a physical product.
y
y This step calls for a large jump in investment. It will show whether the product idea can be turned into a workableproduct.
This stage will answer whether the product idea can be
translated into a technically and commercially feasible product.
8/3/2019 MKT 201 - Lect 5 - Part 2 -New Prod Dev

Product Development
The R&D department will develop and test one or morephysical versions of the product concept.
R&D hopes to find a prototype that will satisfy and excite
consumers and that can be produced quickly and at budgetedcosts. It must meet the following criteria:
Consumers see it as embodying the key attributes described inthe product-concept statement.
The prototype performs safely under normal use andconditions.
The prototype can be produced for the budgetedmanufacturing costs.

Stage 3Stage 3 Market TestingMarket Testing
The amount of test marketing needed varies with eachproduct.
Test marketing costs can be high, and it takes time thatmay allow competitors to gain advantages.
When the costs of developing and introducing the
product are low, or when management is already confident about the new product, the company may dolittle or no test marketing.
8/3/2019 MKT 201 - Lect 5 - Part 2 -New Prod Dev
26/42
y However, when introducing a new productrequires a big investment, or when management isnot sure of the product or marketing program, a
company may do a lot more test marketing.

27/42
Stage 3Stage 3 Market TestingMarket Testing
Test marketing does not guarantee success.
When using test marketing, consumer products
companies choose one of three approaches:
i. Standard Test Markets the company finds a smallnumber of representative test cities, conducts a fullmarketing campaign in these cities, and uses storeaudits, consumer and distributor surveys, and other
measures to gauge performance.
The results are used to forecast national sales andprofits, discover potential product problems, and fine-tune the marketing program.
8/3/2019 MKT 201 - Lect 5 - Part 2 -New Prod Dev
28/42
Stage 3Stage 3 Market TestingMarket Testing
Competitors can monitor test market results or eveninterfere with them by cutting their prices in test cities,increasing their promotion, or even buying up theproduct being tested.
Test markets give competitors a look at the companysnew product well before it is introduced nationally.
T
hus competitors may have time to develop defensivestrategies, and may even beat the companys product tothe market.

ii. Controlled Test Markets
Several research firms keepcontrolled panels of stores
that have agreed to carry
New products for a fee.
Controlled test marketing
Systems such as :
the BehaviourScan, - track
individual consumer behaviourfor new products from the
television set to the check out
counter.
In each BehaviourScan market,
Information Resources Inc
(IRI) maintains a panel of
shoppers who report all of their
purchases by showing anidentification card at check-out
in participating stores.
By using a handheld
scanner at home to record
purchases at non -participating
stores.
8/3/2019 MKT 201 - Lect 5 - Part 2 -New Prod Dev
30/42
ii. Controlled Test Markets
1 Within test stores, IRI(international resourceInc) controls such factorsas shelf placement, price,and in-store promotionsfor the product beingtested.
IRI also measures TVviewing in
each panel household andsends special commercialsto panel member televisionsets.
Controlled test markets
usually cost less than standard
test markets.
Because retail distribution is
forced in the first week of the
test, controlled test markets can
be completed much more quickly
than standard test markets.
As in standard test markets,
controlled test markets allow
competitors to get a look at the
companies new product
8/3/2019 MKT 201 - Lect 5 - Part 2 -New Prod Dev
31/42
Simulated Test Markets
Companies can also test new products in asimulated shopping environment.
The company or research firm show ads andpromotions for a variety of products, including the
new product being tested, to a sample ofconsumers.
It gives consumers a small amount of money andinvites them to a real laboratory store where theymay keep the money or use it to buy items.The researcher notes how many consumers buy thenew product and competing brands.
This simulation provides a measure of trial and thecommercials effectiveness against competing
commercials.
8/3/2019 MKT 201 - Lect 5 - Part 2 -New Prod Dev
32/42
iii. Simulated Test Markets
The researchers askconsumers the reasons for
their purchase or non
purchase.
Some weeks later, they
interview the consumers by
phone to determine product
attitudes, usage, satisfaction,and repurchase intentions.
Using sophisticated computermodels, the researchers thenproject national sales fromresults of the simulated test
market.
Simulated test marketsusually cost much less, can berun in 8 weeks, and keep the
new product out ofcompetitors view.

Stage 3 - Commercialization
y Test marketing gives management the information neededto make a final decision about whether to launch the newproduct.
y If the company goes ahead with commercialization introducing the new product into the market it will faceits largest costs to date.
y Costs include building or renting a full-scalemanufacturing facility as well as marketing.
8/3/2019 MKT 201 - Lect 5 - Part 2 -New Prod Dev

Stage 3 - Commercialization
In launching a new product,the company must make fourdecisions. Decisions as to:
When (timing) whether it
is the right time to introducethe new product.
Where - (geographicalstrategy)
T
he company must decidewhether to launch theproduct in a single locality, aregion, several regions, thenational market, or theinternational market.
To Whom - -(Target-MarketProspects) Within the roll-outmarkets, the company musttarget its distribution andpromotion to the best prospectgroups. Presumably the company
has already profiled the primeprospects on the basis of earliermarket testing.
How - (Introductory Market
Strategy) developing an actionplan for introducing the newproduct into the rollout markets.It must allocate the budget amongthe marketing mix elements andsequence the various activities.

Consumer-Adoption Process
c. The consumer-adoption process begins where thefirms innovation process leaves off.
d. It describes how potential customers learn about new
products, try them and adopt or reject them.Management must understand this process in orderto build an effective strategy for early marketpenetration.
New-product marketers aim at those consumers whoare likely to be the earlier adopters.
Early-adopter theoryholds that:

Consumer-Adoption Process
y Persons within a target market differ in the amount of
time between their exposure to a new product and their
trial of the new product.
y Early adopters share some traits that differentiate them
from the late adopters.
y
Efficient media exist for reaching early-adopters types.
y Early-adopters end to ne opinion leaders and helpful in
advertising its new product to their potential buyers

Concepts in Innovation Diffusion andAdoption
An innovation refers to any good, service, or idea that isperceived by someone as new.
The idea may have a long history but its is an innovationto the person who sees it as new.
y Innovation takes time to spread through the social system.
y The diffusion process is defined by Rogers as the thespread of a new idea from its source of invention orcreation to its ultimate users or adopters.

Stages in the Adoption Process
Awareness the consumer becomes aware of the innovationbut lacks information about it.
Interest The consumer is stimulated to seek informationabout the innovation.
Evaluation - The consumer decided whether it would makesense to try the innovation.
Trial The consumer tries the innovation on a small scale toimprove his or her estimate of its value.
Adoption The consumer decides to make full and regular useof the innovation.
This progression suggests that the new-product marketer shouldthink about how to facilitate consumer movement through thesestages
