  1. Online Consumer Product Market Analysis Protect, defend & grow your brands.

  2. Great Brands are built by Great SKUs…not the other way around • Strong CPG brands are built by and tethered to iconic SKUs • Brands are consumed only at the SKU level and are the only legitimate form of consumer reference • Brand and category management can succeed only with SKU-by-SKU insight

  3. The SKU Ecosystem:tradeoffs & interdependencies with the consumer at the center • Brand • Uniqueness • Value • Price • Size/Contents • Ingredients • Form factor • Value proposition • Performance • Substitutability Skuuber measures the holistic SKU ecosystem as it’s presented at retail

  4. NPD: New Product Development • The lifeblood of business prosperity! • 33% of corporate revenue from products < 5 years old • Average ROI for successful NPD is +97% • Average market share for NP = 47% • Lowest barriers to entry in years Source: PDMA

  5. But don’t be this guy! • Over 25000 new consumer product skus are introduced annually in the North America. • Only about 60% of new product launches are considered successful at launch. • For every 7 product ideas, there may be only 1  that succeeds in the market. • An estimated 44% of all resources allocated to product development and commercialization by U.S. firms are spent on products that are cancelled or fail to yield an adequate financial return.

  6. Inadequate or faulty consumer market research and analysis is the #1 cause of new product failure. • Main causes of NPD failure Source: Cooper, Winning at New Products
