Ken Uchikura Newsletter Vol. 209 Market research is meaningless

Nov

30

Market research is meaningless

There’s a lot of information out there about market size, trends, and so on. People who wonder if they should start their own company or become independent often think about market size and market trends. However, I believe that it’s meaningless. And I’d like to explain why.

Information like the market size and market trend is only external information available to anyone. And unlike my company, large companies are the ones who can make the most use of this information. When an organization is large, it can plan, develop, launch, and promote products for a large market. However, I, as an individual, or a small or medium-sized company, can’t consider market size and trends to respond to when planning, developing, marketing, selling, and promoting products. Therefore, information about market size and market trends is useless.

So, what should individuals and small businesses use as a guide to plan, develop, and sell products? Instead of looking at the market as a whole, it’s important to respond to individual companies’ and customers’ needs on a case-by-case basis. While they may mirror market trends, they often require something completely different. Oftentimes, they’re different from larger market trends, and large companies can’t address their needs individually. I believe that this individualized response is what differentiates small businesses from large corporations.

Instead of focusing on market size and market trends, small businesses should respond to the needs of individual customers. To do this, they need to meet many customers in person and listen to their customers, rather than focusing on market size and market trends. You can’t find the answer by reading newspapers, magazines, and journals. It’s important to research for your product planning with your own feet, eyes, and ears. That is what I’ve always believed. How about you?

Ken Uchikura Newsletter Vol. 208 Interesting Statistics

Interesting Statistics

Did you know that there are significant differences in the selection of car transmissions in the United States, Europe, and Japan? While this is not the case in the computer industry, regional and environmental differences indeed make a difference in product selection.

How to Choose a Transmission

The ratio of manual transmissions:
U.S. 5%
Europe 51%
Japan 8%

The ratio of automatic transmissions:
U.S. 68%
Europe 23%
Japan 26%

The ratio of CVT transmissions:
U.S. 19%
Europe 1%
Japan 46%

The ratio of DCT transmissions:
U.S. 3%
Europe 20
Japan 2%

Needless to say, manufacturers understand and analyze the region in which they sell their vehicles, and provide transmissions that are required within that region. It would be incorrect to assume that just because a product is selling well in one's own country, that a product with the same specifications would sell well in other countries. It is impossible to tell whether a product would sell well in Japan just because it does in the U.S. Or, conversely, whether a product would sell well around the world because it does in Japan. If you are thinking of expanding into the U.S., Japan, or Europe, it is important to know the market. Thanks to the Internet, a certain amount of research can now be done online. It has become a convenient age.
