Product Development

Why do new products fail?

The number one reason why new products fail is because they fail to meet a customer need. This is particularly the case in technology markets where new products are often a collection of new features trying to find a need. Thus product development success is best guaranteed by including customers as part of the process i.e., to unearth insights on new and unmet customer needs.

A completely fresh approach to ‘existing’ or new product development (NPD)

Improving or developing products and services therefore requires new ways of thinking; ways of thinking that are counter-cultural to ways of previously doing things. So we create new products using a blend of research, creativity and decades of marketing experience and by building products as brands.

Maximising creativity

Creativity is also essential to success. So by working with you, and experts, often in marketing workshops, and using a range of creativity techniques, we generate lots of new product ideas, and slay enemies of product innovation. We also do this by bringing ideas to life using rich creative stimuli. This is powerful in provoking customers and challenging conventions and beliefs. Thus we create more and more appealing and distinctive new products.
