Managing new-product development

The new-product development process highlights the important activities needed to find, develop, and introduce new products. However, new-product development involves more than just going through a set of steps. companies must take a holistic approach to managing this process. Successful new-product development requires a customer-centered, team-based, and systematic effort. "(Kotler, Marketing an introduction, Ch.8, Pg.242)

Idea screening

The purpose of idea generation is to create a large number of ideas. The purpose of the succeeding stages is to reduce that number. The first idea-reducing stage is idea sreening, which helps spot good ideas and drop poor ones as soon as possible. Product development costs rise greatly in later stages, so the company wants to go ahead only with the poduct ideas that will turn into profitable products. "(Kotler, Marketing an introduction, Ch.8, Pg.236)

Levels of product and services

Product planners need to think about products and services on three levels. Each level adds more customer value. The most basic level is the core customer value, which addresses the question What is the buyer really buying? When designing products, marketers must first define the core problem-solving benefits or services that consumers seek. "(Kotler, Marketing an introduction, Ch.7, Pg.200)

Products, Services, and Experiences

Product is a key element in the overall market offering. Marketing-mix planning begins with building an offering that brings value to target customers. This offering becomes athe basis upon which the company builds profitable customer relationships. "(Kotler, Marketing an introduction, Ch.7, Pg.199)

Selecting target market segments

After evaluating different segments, the company must now decide which and how many segments it will target. A target market consists of a set of buyers who share common needs of characteristics that the company decides to serve. Market targeting can be carried out at several different levels. Companies can target very broadly (undiffereniated marketing), very narrowly (micromarketing), or somewhere in between (differenteated or concentrated marketing). "(Kotler, Marketing an introduction, Ch.6, Pg.177)

Segmenting Consumer Markets

There is no single way to segment a market. A marketer must try different segmentation variables, alone and in combination, to find the best way to view athe market structure. Here we look at the major giographic, demographic, psychographic, and behavioral variables. "(Kotler, Marketing an introduction, Ch.6, Pg.168)
