2. How to create customer value? Refer to customer’s generic needs and to the customer mental virtual market Moscow - December 2004
THE VALUE APPROACHFROM THE CUSTOMER VIEWPOINT • What the customer buys and considers “value” is not the product, but the “result” or the service provided by the product. • The result sought by customers correspond to a generic need which is stable over time. • Technologies are fast changing, while generic needs remain unchanged. Moscow - December 2004
WHAT BUSINESS ARE WE IN ?Examples of generic need definitions • We (Tetrapak) are selling ”liquid food conservation" solutions (...and not carton containers). • We (Automatic Systems) are selling "access control" solutions (...and not gates and doors). • We (General Motors) operate in the “personal mobility” market arenas (…and not simply in the car market). • We (IBM) are selling “global networking capabilities” ( ...and not only personal computers). • We (BP) are selling “integrated energy assurance” (… and not simply oil, gas and lubricants). Moscow - December 2004
THE CONCEPT OFVIRTUAL MARKET 1.To achieve the generic result sought, customers engage in different activities, directly or indirectly related to the desired outcome. 2. A “mental virtual market” regroup all the activities undertaken by customers to achieve a specific generic result. 3. Thus, a virtual market represents an end-to-end temporal sequence of logically related activities in the cognitive space of customers. . Moscow - December 2004

EXAMPLE OF THE DANISH LEGO COMPANY(1) • Consider Lego, the Danish toy company, In 1995, it had a worldwide construction –toy market share of 72%, in Europe its market share in that category was over 90. • But children were spending more spare time with computers, video games and television than with traditional toys. • So while Lego had been gaining market shares, toys in general and construction toys in particular had been losing their share of children’s spare-time activities Moscow - December 2004
EXAMPLE OF THE LEGO COMPANY (2) • The need addressed by Lego, the Danish toy company, is “family edutainment”…. (education-entertainment) and not construction-toy market. • The generic need is defined as “...having fun and exercising the mind” • The Lego virtual market is a convergence of toys, education, interactive technology, software, computers and consumer electronics. Moscow - December 2004
CHARACTERISTICS OF A VIRTUAL MARKET 1. In a virtual market, the activities generally cut across traditional industry and product-market boundaries and are not necessarily in the core business of the firm. 2. Virtual markets absorb a higher proportion of customer spending than a specific product-market, and represents a higher market potential. 3. Internet information technology makes the objective of addressing virtual markets achievable. Moscow - December 2004
EXAMPLE OF VIRTUAL MARKET (1) • To achieve the “home ownership” generic need, customers might engage with contractors, realtors, insurance companies, mortgage firms, removal companies, telecom, interior designers, … Moscow - December 2004
EXAMPLE OF VIRTUAL MARKET (2) • In the “personal mobility” virtual market, in addition to car ownership, related activities cover car maintenance, car insurance, roadside assistance, emergency services dispatch, route support, stolen vehicle location, …. Moscow - December 2004
FROM THE “VIRTUAL MARKET” TO THE “META MARKET” A meta-market is created when the cognitive associations between these activities are reproduced in the physical market place, thereby streamlining customer activities and providing them with seamless experience. Moscow - December 2004
CREATING THE META-MARKET “The home ownership virtual market “ The cognitive space of the potential customer The cognitive space of the potential customer Negotiation and Negotiation and Insurance and Insurance and Renovation and Repairs and Information Information The purchase decision The purchase decision financing financing maintenance maintenance Reselling value decoration search and evaluation search and evaluation Need of the potential customer Need of the potential customer : To buy a new car Home ownership Removal companies Real estate agencies Banks, mortgage firms Insurance brokers Painters and interiors designers Insurance companies Garages and Financing Cars builders Car dealers and brokers mechanics The industry supply The global supply Moscow - December 2004
META-MARKETSManagerial implications 1. Do not define your reference market in terms of product categories. (cars, metallic gates, detergents, toys…) 2. Refer to the result or the generic outcome customers want to achieve. (personal mobility, access control, home care, edutainment,…) 3. Identify all the activities that, from the customer point of view, are part of the virtual market. 4. Create the reference “meta market” by reproducing in the physical market place the mental associations made by customers. 5. Present the “total solution” customers seek. Moscow - December 2004
BENEFITS OF THE META-MARKET CONCEPT 1. The concept is perfectly aligned on the customer views and therefore facilitates communication. 2. The revenue potential of a meta-market is always larger than the discrete product-market. 3. It enables the firm to offer a “total solution” to customers thereby building exclusivity, loyalty and trust. 4. It helps identifying “growth opportunities” in activities directly or indirectly related to the core service. 5. It helps identifying who are the indirect (or substitute) competitors.

THE ACTIVITY CHAIN CONCEPT • A virtual market is a sequence of logically, directly or indirectly, related activities customers engage in to achieve a specific outcome. Moscow - December 2004
THE ACTIVITY CHAIN CONCEPT • Pre, or before: when customers are deciding what to do to get the result desired. • During: When customers are doing what they decided on. • Post, after: when customers are maintaining the result, reviewing, renewing, extending, upgrading and updating Moscow - December 2004

STRUCTURE OF THE ACTIVITY CHAIN • PRIMARY ACTIVITY CHAIN A sequence of logically and directly related activities customers engage in to achieve a specific outcome. (Visiting a car dealer on the car ownership chain is a primary activity) • ADJACENT ACTIVITY CHAINS A sequence of logically but indirectly related activities engaged by the customer in its search of the problem solution. (seeking car insurance quotes is a complementary activity that falls in a adjacent chain) Moscow - December 2004
