Value of Concept Testing:TV Series 2,000 Ideas 100 Scripts 20 Pilots 5 Scheduled for prime time 1 Success (?)
New Product Testing from a Customer’s Perspective 1) Concept testing 2) Alpha/Beta/In-house testing 3) Laboratory test market 4) Full-scale test market
Questions Answered in Concept Testing • Is the concept worth pursuing further? • Which attributes are more important (provide more value) to the consumers? • Which segments are worth pursuing with this concept? • What amount of cannibalization of current products might occur?
Questions Answered in Alpha/Beta Testing • Are the product features/benefits important in use? • What problems are encountered in the use of the product? • What are the costs in use for our consumers? • Does the product perform better than the competing brands?
Questions Answered in Laboratory Test Markets • What is the potential number of triers of the product? • What is the potential repeat? • What is the potential frequency of purchase? • What is the projected sales/share for new product in the first two years of introduction? • What should we do to improve the product’s chances of market success?
Questions Answered in Test Markets • What is the level of awareness generated by the marketing program? • What trial, repeat, and usage rates are generated by the program? • What changes in attitude are accomplished by the program? • What levels of marketing expenditures are optimal? • What specific levels of advertising, packaging, distribution, etc. will work? • What should we do to improve the product’s chances of market success?

ASSESSOR Model Objectives • Predict new product’s long-term market share, and sales volume over time • Estimate the sources of the new product’s share, which includes “cannibalization” of the firm’s existing products, and the “draw” from competitor brands • Generate diagnostics to improve the product and its marketing program • Evaluate impact of alternative marketing mix elements such as price, package, etc.
Consumer Research Input (Laboratory Measures) (Post-Usage Measures) Management Input (Positioning Strategy) (Marketing Plan) Preference Model Trial & Repeat Model Reconcile Outputs Draw & Cannibalization Estimates Brand Share Prediction Unit Sales Volume Diagnostics Overview of ASSESSORModeling Procedure
Overview of ASSESSOR Measurements Design Procedure Measurement O1 Respondent screening and Criteria for target-group identification recruitment (personal interview) (eg, product-class usage) O2 Pre-measurement for established Composition of ‘relevant set’ of brands (self-administrated established brands, attribute weights questionnaire) and ratings, and preferences X1 Exposure to advertising for established brands and new brands [O3] Measurement of reactions to the Optional, e.g. likability and advertising materials (self- believability ratings of advertising administered questionnaire) materials X2 Simulated shopping trip and exposure to display of new and established brands O4 Purchase opportunity (choice recorded Brand(s) purchased by research personnel) X3 Home use/consumption of new brand O5 Post-usage measurement (telephone New-brand usage rate, satisfaction ratings, and repeat-purchase propensity; attribute ratings and preferences for ‘relevant set’ of established brands plus the new brand O = Measurement; X = Advertsing or product exposure
Trial/Repeat Model Market share for new product Mn = T´R´W where: T = long-run cumulative trial rate (estimated from measurement at O4) R = long-run repeat rate (estimated from measurements at O5) W = relative usage rate, with w = 1 being the average market usage rate.
Trial Model T = FKD + CU – (FKD)´ (CU) where: F = long-run probability of trial given 100% awareness and 100% distribution (from O4) K = long-run probability of awareness (from managerial judgment) D = long-run probability of product availability where target segment shops (managerial judgment and experience) C = probability of consumer receiving sample (Managerial judgment) U = probability that consumer who receives a product will use it (from managerial judgment and past experience)
Repeat Model Obtained as long-run equilibrium of the switching matrix estimated from (O2 and O5): Time (t+1) New Pr. Other New Pr.p(nn) p(no) Time tOtherp(on) p(oo) p(.) are probabilities of switching where p(nn) + p(no) = 1.0; p(on) + p(oo) = 1.0 Long-run repeat given by: p(on) r = –––––––––––––– 1 + p(on) – p(nn)
Preference Model: Purchase Probabilities Before New Product Use (Vij)b Lij = –––––––– Ri å (Vik)b k=1 where: Vij = Preference rating from product j by participant i Lij= Probability that participant i will purchase product j Ri = Products that participant i will consider for purchase (Relevant set) b = An index which determines how strongly preference for a product will translate to choice of that product (typical range: 1.5–3.0)
Preference Model: Purchase Probabilities After New Product Use (Vij)b L´ij = ––––––––––––––––– Ri (Vin)b + å (Vik)b k=1 where: L´it = Choice probability of product j after participant i has had an opportunity to try the new product b = index obtained earlier Then, market share for new product: L´inM´n = Enå –––IN n = index for new product En = proportion of participants who include new product in their relevant sets N = number of respondents
Estimating Cannibalizationand Draw Partition the group of participants into two: those who include new product in their consideration sets, and those who don’t. The weighted pre- and post- market shares are then given by: LinMj = å ––– IN L´inL´inM´j = Enå ––– + (1 – En)å ––– IN IN Then the market share drawn by the new product from each of the existing products is given by: Dj = Mj – M´j

Yankelovich, Skelly and White Model Forecast market share = S ´ N ´ C ´ R ´ U ´ K where: S = Lab store sales (indicator of trial), N = Novelty factor of being in lab market. Discount sales by 20–40% based on previous experience that relate trial in lab markets to trial in actual markets, C = Clout factor which retains between 25% and 75% of SN determined, based on proposed marketing effort versus ad and distribution weights of existing brands in relation to their market share, R = Repurchase rate based on percentage of those trying who repurchase, U = Usage rate based on usage frequency of new product as compared to the new product category as a whole, and K = Judgmental factor based on comparison of S ´ N ´ C ´ R ´ U´ K with Yankelovich norms. The comparison is with respect to factors such as size and growth of category, new product’s share derived from category expansion versus conversion from existing brand.
Some Issues in ValidatingPre-Test Models • Validation does not include products that were withdrawn as a result of model predictions • Pre-test and actual launch are separated in time, often by a year or more • Marketing program as implemented could be different from planned program
