What Is Innovation and New Product Development Research?
Innovation and NPD market research refers to the process of gathering, analysing, and interpreting market research data, to inform the development of new products or services. Research may be conducted at different stages of the development process to:
• Identify unmet consumer needs and opportunity areas.
• Define target audiences and ‘must have’ proposition features and benefits.
• Evaluate initial concepts.
• Test prototypes.
• Evaluate and monitor post-launch success.
Innovation and NPD market research may include different, qualitative, and quantitative methodologies, as well as co-creation, workshopping, and desk research.
Die Vorteile of New Product Development Research
Differentiate Your Offer
In a crowded marketplace, differentiation is key!
Innovation and NPD market research enable you to identify the game-changing consumer needs, behaviours, and trends that you can address to maximise proposition differentiation and appeal.
Reduce Risk of Failure
It is commonly agreed that new products and services have a success rate of around 20%.
However, by conducting the right market research at the appropriate stages of the development process, the chances of developing a highly successful new proposition increase significantly.
Maximise Innovation ROI
Innovation and NPD market research enable you to maximise innovation ROI by weeding out new concepts that don’t have commercial potential before significant R&D sums are spent on them.
Moreover, by using research to enhance the user experience, create innovative packaging or deliver differentiating marketing strategies, both the rate and speed of consumer adoption can be maximised.
Some Of Brandspeak's New Product Development Research Dienstleistungen
Idea Generation and Screening
At the beginning of the new product development process, quantity is as important as quality.
That’s why, at the project’s outset, we’ll use a mix of workshopping, co-creation, and market research to help you generate as many new proposition ideas as possible.
These are then gradually stress-tested by stakeholders and consumers until only those with significant potential remain, to be taken through to concept development and further evaluation.
Concept Development
The Concept Development stage may include market research and creative workshops, which can be run on a co-creative basis, including both stakeholders and consumers.
This stage is used to evaluate ideas on a Stop/Go basis, before expanding those that pass into fully formed concepts for further assessment. This is done by adding a detailed description of features and benefits, consumer demographics, key occasions, needs and reasons to believe.
Developing mood boards, branding, packaging and web page designs at this stage will also bring the concepts to life.
Concept Evaluation and Approval
Robust concepts can be evaluated and refined by the target customer, using qualitative research and/or co-creation. Their purpose is to assess and refine thinking to date and obtain a more rigorous evaluation of their commercial potential.
It is at this stage that quant is required, to assess the relative and absolute appeal of each, shortlisted concept, and its component parts, including pricing.
The quant can also used as the basis for more extensive financial, opportunity modelling.
