DESCRIPTION

A good idea may move and inspire people, but it takes more to make them act. Moving to a new situation requires the new situation to be better than the old one, but also that consumers' concerns are addressed. That's because moving to the new situation requires action, and it is far easier to do nothing than to take the risk. How to overcome this inertia? Flip through this presentation to find out or read back what was presented in our webinar at January 26, 2012 by SKIM's expert Robin de Rooij. Learn how revealing triggers and barriers can help you optimizing the uptake of your new product or service.

What prevents them from acting?

My product is great. Why don’t people buy it?

Overcoming inertia is about a balancing act

3

• Triggers

• Aspects of the product and

its use that cause people to

be excited about it and

cause them to act

• Barriers

• Doubts or concerns that

people may have about the

product and stops them

from acting

SKIM Webinar | January 26, 2012 | “How to overcome Inertia” | Robin de Rooij SKIM Webinar | January 26, 2012 | “How to overcome Inertia” | Robin de Rooij

To help overcome inertia, we work with different types of communication

• Motivate consumers to purchase

the product

• Represent new news

• E.g., claims expressing the true

promise

• Help consumers to overcome

barriers and doubts

• E.g., endorsement claims, claims

of no side effects or adverse

effects

True motivators Reassurances

To capture such trade-offs in market research, an interview procedure mimics a conversation between the brand and the consumer

Price

Is the consumer interested in the product concept?

Are the communicated benefits compelling and relevant?

What are the doubts preventing the consumer from acting, if any?

Are reassurances powerful enough to overcome the doubts of the individual?

Step by step, we learn more about why a consumer wants a product or not And a consumer will only buy if all requirements are met

Is price a barrier to the consumer, what is a consumer’s reference point?

Based on this insight, SKIM has developed the integrated Triggers & Barriers approach

10

SKIM Webinar | January 26, 2012 | “How to overcome Inertia” | Robin de Rooij

In Triggers & Barriers, we use an integrated approach to maximize the Reach of a product

11

SKIM Webinar | January 26, 2012 | “How to overcome Inertia” | Robin de Rooij

Performing a Triggers & Barriers study

• Performing a study requires a good understanding of the market

• What are relevant triggers?

• What are relevant barriers?

• How can these be addressed?

• This is an integrated solution to understand reach. So if one part is not

accurate enough, overall results will suffer

• In case you are unsure what the main Triggers & Barriers are in the market

you are operating in, we recommend performing qualitative research first to

obtain this understanding

For each barrier, we have one or more predefined reassurances

• Safety – Crashing

• Safety - Health problems

• Physical Discomfort

• Limited visibility

• Safer than most airlines due to proven NASA

technology and safety standards

• Weightlessness does not cause

health problems unless exposed for

extended period of time (months)

• Launch and landing are no more

uncomfortable than a roller coaster ride

• 33% of earth surface covered in clouds, but

you will always have a magnificent view

In many cases, the absence of brand can also be considered a doubt

• I’m afraid the product or

service is offered by an

untrustworthy brand

• If the product or service is

offered by …, I will trust it

• This could be multiple or NO

brands.

With an integrated approach, we put it all into perspective

• Strength of Triggers & Barriers

• Reassuring/ addressing these barriers

• Added value of multiple communication messages

• Some people do not have strong doubts or barriers, they can be reached by just focusing

communication on a relevant benefit, but this is generally a small group

• Most consumers have strong doubts and need to be reassured, multiple reassurances

allows the brand to reach more consumers

So in the end we can…

• Help you to overcome inertia and successfully launch your product by

identifying a balanced mix of messages that maximizes action.

• Optimize Reach and Revenues, identifying the best combination of

communication and pricing to target those willing to pay

• Strategies can be targeted to those most likely to take action, because

overcoming barriers is harder for some people than for others

How inert are your customers? And Why?
