John Doerr

“There are basically four risks we have to confront in each deal. There is technical risk: Can we split the atom? There is people risk: Will the key players on the team stay together? There is financial risk: Can we keep the company well financed? And there is market risk: Can we get the dogs to eat the dog food? The most dangerous of these risks is market risk. Removing market risk is expensive … we’re risk takers but we will take a technology risk over a market risk any day of the week.”

(Perkins & Perkins, 1999, The Internet Bubble, p. 74)

Segway Scooters

• Hyped in 2001 by Jeff Bezos, Steve Jobs, John Doerr

• Jobs: cities would be re-architected to leverage

• Doerr: Segway would make its first billion dollars faster than any company in history

• Segway released in 2002• By the summer of 2004, less than

10,000 units had. 30,000 units through 2007.

Market Risk

• Market risk = demand uncertainty• Marketers and managers can make better

decisions when uncertainty is reduced • It is reduced through market intelligence

• Mature product– US Sales of Wine 2008 – 2013

• Innovative Product– iPad

Apple iPad

• Pre-launch demand uncertainty• Jan 21, 2010 WSJ– “Apple’s tablet foray faces several obstacles. Analysts say

demand will depend on its price, which some believe to be about $1,000. Apple must also convince consumers the product is worth buying in addition to an iPhone and a laptop computer. And Apple faces competition from cheaper netbooks and other devices such as Amazon.com Inc.’s Kindle e-book reader.”

“About 20% of US Consumers Would Buy Apple’s Tablet”

Initial reaction?

Jan 22, 2010, FastCompany.com

“About 20% of US Consumers Would Buy Apple’s Tablet”

– “A survey of over 3,300 U.S. consumers has shown nearly 20% of them would buy one. Its success looks assured.”

– Purchase intent question: “4% of the responders said they were “very likely” to buy such a device, with 14% more labeling themselves as “somewhat likely”. That means close to 20% of the US consumers surveyed would be interested in buying Apple’s machine”

June 2010, Forrester Research

• Forrester Research, June 2010– Low estimate for demand: 1.2 million iPads in 2010.– “Consumers didn’t ask for tablets. In fact, Forrester’s data

shows that the top features consumers say they want in a PC are a complete mismatch with the features of the iPad.”

When/What Do You Ask Customers?

• Dr. Land (inventor of polaroid) said, "I didn't invent the polaroid camera, it's always existed, just waiting to be discovered."

• Steve replied, "That's right. I knew long before we built it exactly what the Mac was. It always existed. I never had to ask customers what they wanted. If it's something truly revolutionary, they won't be able to help you.”

– Steve Jobs by Walter Isaacson

Page 14: Market Intelligence Session 1 Course Introduction, Backward Market Research, Secondary Data, Measure Types, Crosstabs 1

“If I had asked people what they wanted, they would have said faster horses.”

-Henry Ford

Page 15: Market Intelligence Session 1 Course Introduction, Backward Market Research, Secondary Data, Measure Types, Crosstabs 1

Being Customer Led• Contrast with Chrysler / Ford minivan

– “Ford lacked confidence that a market existed, because the product didn’t exist. The auto industry places great value on historical studies of market segments. Well, we couldn’t prove there was a market for the minivan because there was no historical segment to cite…never got a letter from a housewife asking for a minivan.”

– Being customer led - listen to customers, but understand the limitations of what you are getting in some environments

Market Intelligence: 3 Skills

• Backward market research: – Start at the end of the process: what decision will this

intelligence inform? move backwards from there

• Getting data & judging its quality• Tools for classic marketing problems

Page 18: Market Intelligence Session 1 Course Introduction, Backward Market Research, Secondary Data, Measure Types, Crosstabs 1

3 Key Skills

• Backward market research• Getting data and judging its quality– Secondary data– Exploratory research– Descriptive research– Causal research

• Tools for classic marketing problems

Course Positioning

• For users of market intelligence in marketing management, entrepreneurship, consulting– help you become a more sophisticated user by assuming

role of research provider and by providing practice as evaluator of research

Page 22: Market Intelligence Session 1 Course Introduction, Backward Market Research, Secondary Data, Measure Types, Crosstabs 1

Course Positioning

• There is a quantitative component to this class, especially second half of course

• But… we will not go deeply into math behind the tools – goal is to give you basic working understanding of the tools, not to make you an expert in them

• For some tools (conjoint, simulated test markets, perceptual maps), I will show you simplified version to give you basic intuition. You will not learn how to do a complex or sophisticated analysis on your own

Backward Market Research • Imagine the end of the process: – What decision alternatives might be implemented?– What analyses will help you make decision?– What info/data do you need to run this analysis?

• Where to get the data for analysis?– Do they already exist? – If not, may need to commission a study.

• Design the study (“need-” vs. “nice-to-know”)• Analyze data & make recommendation

Primary vs. Secondary Data

• Primary –

• Secondary –

collected anew for current purposes

exists already, was collected for some other purpose

Page 28: Market Intelligence Session 1 Course Introduction, Backward Market Research, Secondary Data, Measure Types, Crosstabs 1

Secondary Data: Pros & Cons

• Advantages

• Disadvantages

Page 29: Market Intelligence Session 1 Course Introduction, Backward Market Research, Secondary Data, Measure Types, Crosstabs 1

Secondary Data: Pros & Cons

• Advantages– cheap– quick– often sufficient– usually reputable firms– access to larger samples or hard-to-reach populations

• Disadvantages– there is a lot of data out there– numbers sometimes conflict – categories may not fit your needs– everyone has access to it (including competitors)

Secondary Data Quality: “What’s Behind the Numbers?” by Exter

Page 32: Market Intelligence Session 1 Course Introduction, Backward Market Research, Secondary Data, Measure Types, Crosstabs 1

Secondary Data Quality: “What’s Behind the Numbers?” by Exter

• Are Data consistent with other independent sources?• What are the classifications? Do they fit needs?• When were numbers collected? Obsolete?• Who collected the numbers? – Expertise and resources?– Bias?

• Why were the data collected? Self-interest?• How were the numbers generated? – Sample size– Sampling method– Measure type

• Correlation does not mean causation!

“Turn off the tube”, says the American Academy of Pediatricians. “Watching TV causes obesity.” A study conducted for the society found that 4th graders who watched more than 25 hours of television a week weighed, on average, eleven pounds more than fourth graders who watched less than 25 hours. The academy advised parents to severely restrict their children’s television diets.

“TV watching causes obesity”

Don’t live together if you want to stay married. So says a nationwide study of over 2000 couples. The study found that couples who had lived together before getting married were 2.3 times as likely to get divorced as couples who had not lived together.

“Living together leads to divorce”

Measure Types• Nominal: Unordered Categories

• Ordinal: Ordered Categories, intervals can’t be assumed to be equal.

• Interval: Equally spaced categories, 0 is arbitrary and units arbitrary.

• Ratio: Equally spaced categories, 0 on scale means 0 of underlying quantity.

Measurement Example

• For a student project, three students prepared a survey comparing two dishwashing detergents (Sheen and Glitter) on how rough or mild the detergent was on their hands.*

• The students developed the following question and scale and administered the survey to 10 respondents for both detergents. The scale used to rate each detergent is below:

* This example is adapted from Churchill and Iacobucci (2009)

Page 54: Market Intelligence Session 1 Course Introduction, Backward Market Research, Secondary Data, Measure Types, Crosstabs 1

Measurement Example

• The survey responses are listed below:

Page 55: Market Intelligence Session 1 Course Introduction, Backward Market Research, Secondary Data, Measure Types, Crosstabs 1

Measurement Example• Students decided to work individually to code and analyze the

responses and then get back together. When they got back together, each of three suggested a different coding scheme.

• What is your initial reaction to these scales?

Page 56: Market Intelligence Session 1 Course Introduction, Backward Market Research, Secondary Data, Measure Types, Crosstabs 1

Measurement Example• When the data are coded using each of the three scales, the

following mean ratings result (in red below under S and G) . • Based on this, which student is right?

S G1 0.8

1.2

2 3.8 4.2

3 2.2 1.8

Page 57: Market Intelligence Session 1 Course Introduction, Backward Market Research, Secondary Data, Measure Types, Crosstabs 1

Measurement Example• The students each calculated the comparative mildness

between the detergents as shown below.• Which student is right?

* Reverse coded – milder rating is low.

Sheen GlitterHow much milder is glitter than sheen?

Page 67: Market Intelligence Session 1 Course Introduction, Backward Market Research, Secondary Data, Measure Types, Crosstabs 1

Rule of Thumb

• If a potential causal interpretation exists, make numbers add up to 100% at each level of the causal factor.

• In the example above: it is possible that gender (row) causes or influences acceptance (column), but not that acceptance influences gender. Hence, row percentages (format C) would be desirable.

Page 70: Market Intelligence Session 1 Course Introduction, Backward Market Research, Secondary Data, Measure Types, Crosstabs 1

70

Luna Beer Questions: Using BMR

• What decision are we making and what is action standard– decision: go/no go– action standard: break even in year 1

• What information do we need (to plug into formula) to make decision?

• Which reports allow that information to be estimated?

• What decision do these reports suggest?
