Escaping the Marketing Morass
Joe Sinfield and Scott D. Anthony printed in Marketing Management, March-April 2007 | Volume 5 | Number 2
It is one of the holy grails of marketing: predictability in new product innovation. Yet again and again, smart companies spend tens of millions of dollars doing the best research they can do only to have products flop in the marketplace.
Our perspective is that the way that companies assess and analyze markets shoulders at least a portion of the blame for this unpredictability. Segmenting markets into demographic segments, or assuming that product categories divide the world, can consistently lead to offerings that don’t connect with consumers and miss opportunities for innovation. Companies continue to push for improvements along dimensions that overshoot consumer needs and then complain that commoditization has set in when looking at the market the right way can highlight attractive avenues for differentiation.
There must be a better way, one that allows companies to identify real opportunities that promise extraordinary returns. We believe that focusing on the “job” a customer is trying to get done can help companies break out of the marketing morass. This article describes how this jobs- to-be-done framework can help companies master the “innovation lifecycle,” improving their ability to spot high-growth opportunities, optimize existing products, and inject life into even the most stagnant categories. Jobs and the innovation life cycle
The concept of jobs to be done is described in Chapter 3 of Clayton Christensen’s 2003 book The Innovator’s

Key aspects include developing a joint category plan and KPI dashboard, prioritizing issues, agreeing on objectives and action plans, and regularly reviewing results to refine strategies. The goal is to optimize the "moment of truth" in-store experience and drive customer loyalty.
