The cost of getting your product monetization strategy wrong…
72% of innovations fail to meet their revenue and profit targets.
The odds are stacked mightily against any company that launches a new product or service. Between 65% and 75% of new offerings fail outright or miss their revenue or profit goals, depending on whose research you look at.
According to Madhavan Ramanujam and Dr. Georg Tacke from Simon-Kucher & Partners, there are four primary types of new product failures which they explore in their new book Monetizing Innovation: How Smart Companies Design the Product around the Price — feature shocks, minivations, hidden gems and undeads.
Ramanujam and Tacke were kind enough to provide an excerpt from their book. Check out our free guide: 4 Product Monetization Fails – and How to Avoid Them
