HOW TO MAKE YOUR NEW PRODUCT APPEAL TO CUSTOMERS

You’ve identified a problem. You’ve built a product that seems to address that problem.

Now what?

Do Market Research

One of the first things that you should focus on when it comes to making your product appealing to customers is figuring out what customers’ needs are. Research the needs and wants of the market to make your product appealing.

Even if you’ve already identified a problem that you believe your product can help solve, having this information about your target demographic will enable you to know what tweaks to make so that your product is doing its job in the best possible way.

Advertise on the Right Mediums

Advertising is one of the main ways that you can get the message out about your product. And messages often need to be repeated up to 20 times before they stick. So as you think about your advertising campaigns, think carefully about your target demographic and the most effective ways to advertise to that demographic, and then the most effective way to advertise products like your product.

Maybe you’ll discover that focusing on social media ads is a great way to target a specifically younger high-school-age audience. On the other hand, maybe it will be best for you to focus on billboards depending on the product and the audience.

Make it Affordable

One of the most important things you can think about when it comes to making your product appealing to customers is its cost appeal. Even if a product is aesthetically appealing, serves a great function, and seems like it comes from a reliable source, customers will not be interested in purchasing your product if the price is not right.

Figure out comparable competitors’ pricing on products similar to yours and calculate how much you can afford to offer your product at a slightly lower price to attract more customers.

Figuring out how to take a new product that you’ve developed and make it appealing to actual real-life customers are two wholly different things. Even if you have a solid idea for your product, it’s important that you take a variety of steps to ensure that your product will be able to actually appeal to a specific consumer base. Starting with the suggestions in this article can help you figure out which direction you should head in so that you can further develop your product and make a profit.
