Psychology of Consumer Product AdoptionDavid Tracy
Full presentation can be downloaded here:
http://pptlab.com/ppt/Why-Consumers-Dont-Buy-The-Psychology-of-New-Product-Adoption-16
Some innovations are truly spectacular, but consumers are slow or just refuse to adopt. In fact, over 70% of all new products fail in the marketplace—and innovative, new products fail at an even higher rate.
Why is this the case? And, how do companies overcome this?
This document discusses the psychology of product adoption. Topics include Prospect Theory, Endowment Effect, Loss Aversion, Give and Get Dynamics, Innovator’s Curse, Product-Behavior Value Matrix, among other topics. It distills these concepts into Six Product Launch Strategies.
The foundation of this consumer adoption discussion is around the difference between objective gains and losses vs. subjective gains and losses. This fundamental consumer bias results in psychological switching costs, in addition to economic ones. Studies have shown that, psychologically, losses loom larger than gains by two to three times.

Description:
Multi Commodity Exchange of India Ltd. operates MCX, India's leading commodity futures exchange, and has recently going public.
We are a firm of independent analysts based in Mumbai, India. Our research is truly independent, since we are not affiliated with any i-bank.
We introduce herewith a new presentation format - 'Fusion of a Research Report and a Financial Model' - 'possibly' for the first time in the global research community. Please excuse us, if you've seen a similar format earlier! Please refer the Disclaimer sheet.
This research report-cum-financial model contains a wealth of information about commodity futures exchanges as an industry, the regulatory environment in India, trading volumes, business model, strengths, financials and earnings estimates of MCX, and global peer financial highlights and valuations. This document is an unlocked spreadsheet and is print-ready.
Bonus: our proprietary 'IPO Analysis Checklist' is included.
We believe this report-cum-customizable model will remain relevant all the time, and across geographies. Just plug in the current stock price, make changes in underlying assumptions and arrive at your own earnings estimates and valuations, incl. DCF, and your own target price!
This report cum model can be used as a template by US based investors / analysts tracking commodity futures exchanges, such as ICE and CBOE.

Implicitly or explicitly all competing businesses employ a strategy to select a mix
of marketing resources. Formulating such competitive strategies fundamentally
involves recognizing relationships between elements of the marketing mix (e.g.,
price and product quality), as well as assessing competitive and market conditions
(i.e., industry structure in the language of economics).

recommendations

Your biggest problem is that you know too much: Forget about describing what you did and only
include the analysis and findings that support your arguments.

5. A storyboard will help sketch out your story early on
A storyboard will guide your information needs . . . so, write one early in
the project or piece of work:
• Use the storyboard to help identify and communicate the analysis needed
• Do not wait until you have “the answer” before planning how to communicate the result
Creating a storyboard up-front will help you to:
• Visualize each page of the document
• Organize and communicate ideas
• Check the logic flow (“necessary and sufficient” arguments)
• Organize the team
• Check the team progress
9
6. The storyboard should have clear headlines that tell a complete, coherent
story
Reading only the headlines should give the reader a clear idea of the
story you are telling
Headlines are the hooks that draw attention to the text below
Headlines should quickly create and hold the audience‟s interest
Relative simplicity lowers the risk of losing anyone in your audience:
– It’s hard to win back an audience once they’re off the hook
– Complex or illogical storyline raises risk
– Simple (but not simplistic) storyline lowers risk

7. Structuring information in a pyramid is based on proven principles of
information perception
Basic ideas underlying the pyramid principle
• Information is always absorbed
sequentially
• Humans have a limited capacity to take
things in (“critical number seven”)
• Comprehension is easier when information
is summarised in logical groups
• Groupings are perceived more easily when
there is a shared criterion at the higher
level

8. Every pyramid has three structural elements
Set-up of a pyramid
Key statement 1 is
1 Key supported by statements that
statement follow a logical set-up (“MECE
2 Vertical relationship
principle”)
The vertical relationship 2 is
shown by a dialogue between
questions and answers that
creates tension, that leads the
listener / reader and connects
the contents
The horizontal relationship 3
3 Horizontal relationship
builds up lines of
argumentation
Source: Barbara Minto ”The Pyramid Principle“

9. All statements at one level of a pyramid are answers to the same question,
e.g. what? why? how?
2 Vertical relationship
Company X
The problem Company X
must take
with company X should apply a
action Y
is that ... proven method
because ...
Characteristics or component parts Reasons or benefits Process steps or actions

10. We apply the MECE principle when systematically structuring a problem
The MECE principle
Statements at the same level do not overlap All statements taken together do not leave any gaps
(Mutually Exclusive) (Collectively Exhaustive)

11. A logic tree is not MECE if there are gaps or overlaps
Example of violating the MECE principle in a logic tree
Blue-eyed
People > 180 cm
Blonde
The world‟s population
College graduates
People 180 cm
Physicists
The branches of this logic tree reveal both gaps and overlaps: the MECE principle has not been
met!
