  • Slide 10
  • Test Marketing Standard Test Market +Costs +Brand Equity -Jamming -Duplication Limited introduction in a small market supported by a full-fledged marketing campaign to gauge customer reactions
  • Slide 11
  • Product Life Cycle:PLC A concept that provides a way to trace the stages of a products acceptance, from its introduction (birth) to its decline (death).

  • Product Life Cycles Strategies Time INTRODUCTIONGROWTHMATURITYDECLINE Product Strategy Distribution Strategy Promotion Strategy Pricing Strategy Limited models Frequent changes More models Frequent changes. Large number of models. Eliminate unprofitable models Limited Wholesale/ retail distributors Expanded dealers. Long- term relations Extensive. Margins drop. Shelf space Phase out unprofitable outlets Awareness. Stimulate demand.Sampling Aggressive ads. Stimulate demand Advertise. Promote heavily Phase out promotion High to recoup development costs Fall as result of competition & efficient produc- tion. Prices fall (usually). Prices stabilize at low level. Sales

  • Adopter Categories .
  • Slide 24
  • Diffusion Process and PLC Curve Innovators Early adopters Early majority Late majority Laggards Product life cycle curve Diffusioncurve Introduction Growth Maturity Decline Sales
  • Slide 25
  • How do we use the Diffusion of innovation theory? - MM can predict which types of customers will buy their products immediately after introduction or later Can develop effective MMix
  • Slide 26
  • Product Characteristics and the Rate of Adoption Trialability Observability Relative Advantage Compatibility Complexity
