How to market a great new product successfully

FMCG new product launch, new product development, cutting edge marketing knowledge, new product development

Studies have estimated that product launches of new consumer packaged goods fail at a rate of 80%.

Another study found that 33% of new industrial products failed at launch.

One survey reported that out of 100 proposed new ideas, 39 begin the development process, 17 survive the development process, 8 actually reach the marketplace and 1 eventually reaches its business objectives.

All too often people come to Launch Engineering AFTER their product launch has failed... to find we had the new product development tools they SHOULD have used...
