And Your Preferences Too

WHICH MAKES UNDERSTANDING, RESEARCHING & SUCCEEDING IN THE MOBILE APPS MARKET VERY HARD

SO WHAT SHOULD YOU DO? YOUR HOMEWORK

What is Market Research?  Market research is about finding answers to questions that deal with whether or not there is a market for your product  It should be a systematic, ongoing process that never truly ends…  But at certain points in time, should produce actionable results

Market Research Goals  Reduce risk and make better business/product decisions by focusing on specific questions  Understand dollars, growth rates, segments and their characteristics  Understand market trends, competitors, value chain, ecosystem  Understand business model pricing (level/structure) issues

How Do We Do It?  The answer to this question is changing constantly.  5 years ago I would have given you a much different answer than today.  The web, mobile web, social media and other technologies and tools are changing the way we go about it.

Be like Google? ...Almost  Few of us can afford to throw things against the wall to see what sticks.  Most of us can’t give everyone 20% of their time to experiment.  So, we need to learn fast, cheap & early to make good choices about what goes into development.  Then, like Google, observe market reaction and iterate to a better place.

Start With Secondary Research For Trends and the Big Picture  Industry web sites, analysts, associations and conferences…thanks Symbian!!

NOTE: http://www.mobi leappevent.com

 Keep on top of it though!

Then Figure Out Your Specific ?’s Which May Include…  What exactly to build?  Does it already exist?  If you build it…  Will they find, pay, use, keep using, promote?

 Who to build it for?  How many of them are there?

A Market Research Process What are your questions/goals? What will you do with the answers? What data is needed to answer the questions? Acquire the data. Process / analyze the data. Present results and take action.

Segmentation is Usually About Who  Market segmentation is the process of dividing a total market into market groups consisting of people who have relatively similar product needs  Market segmentation is used as a strategic marketing tool for defining markets and thereby allocating resources  Market segmentation is the science of dividing a large market into small pieces that you can prioritize and dominate  Market segmentation is done with digits/#’s  Market segmentation is essential  Market segmentation is available free

This Market Segments On What  Entertainment  Casual games (personal/social)  Music, photos, videos, etc.  Social networking

 Communication  Talk, E-mail, SMS,

 Personal productivity  Notes, calendar, address book,

 Enterprise productivity
