Concept Testing
Concept testing is a critical component of your market research, allowing you to test your concept, revisit initial product development assumptions, improve your targeting, hone your messaging and refine your products’ features for greater market appeal.
On the surface, concept testing seems simple: develop an idea, present it to potential customers, determine potential viability, and refine the product or service. But as a specialist in concept testing across a wide range of industries and product types, we’ve learned that there is no “one size fits all” approach to this research.
Concept testing strategies can vary as widely as the concepts themselves.
