Market Back Approach to Growth
Engage the market to determine the concept’s viability
Understand how the value adding process (value chain) operates
Develop a value proposition to specifiers and end users
Obtain first estimate of the potential revenue opportunity
Determine what resources will be required to develop the opportunity for commercial sales and how to shorten the development cycle
Provide business management with facts from direct contact with the marketplace to decide which concepts merit moving forward with resourcing. Balance depth and speed in this disciplined approach using an organized set of activities.

Research Approaches to Market Back Approach (VOC)
Subjective Questions - Open-ended questions and leading discussions directed at revealing specific understanding the range and scope of underlying practices, needs and wants
Analytical Surveys - Close-ended (multiple choice or ranking or ratings) on uses, values, and options
Experiments - Responses to proposed concepts which simulate buyer or customer behavior
Motivational or Inner Mind Probes - Open-ended questions, discussions and exercises designed to indirectly reveal underlying motivations
Voice of the Customer is an essential component of creating and delivering value with the growth process

Measuring The Value of Product Features
Popular Conjoint Methods Complex, difficult, and fault sensitive Designed for consumer markets Based on trade-offs of hypothetical products
Compositional Conjoint Simple, short, easily executed, fault tolerant
method Ranking of features with price discounts For use with experienced buyers With well understood features and benefits
Conjoint methods focus on the relative value of features but give a poor estimate of total product value

•2 clear benefit segments emerge
•Timesavers•Protection seekers
•A third segment may exist, but there is not enough data to confirm it
•Loss of time is a stronger driver than battery damage

VOC and Conjoint Analysis VOC is customer assessment (interviews, surveys, focus groups, etc.) in an effort to identify
customer needs and wants. Conjoint is a survey & analysis tool that allows the business to quantitatively understand
customer needs.
Growth, Share, and Lifecycle The growth/share analysis is one of the more traditional looks at a product’s market position.
The analysis typically takes the form of a 2X2 matrix.
Segmentation and Value Proposition Framework A framework used to rank the segments, develop value proposition for each segment, and
allocate resources
Value Mapping Value Mapping generates a graphical summary of the relationship between customers’ desired
product attributes, the competitive choice set, and the price the customers are willing to pay.
Competitor Analysis Data analysis technique used to compare competitors across the conjoint attributes and other
key criteria (i.e. new product development, price, sales force support, etc.)
