Q

Factors Influencing Sucsess

how does the timing of a product effect its sucsess (Apple example)

A
  • When: what is happening in the world at the time
  • Apple: they had the first good smartphones, first with touchscreen, first to market.
  • When do they release it
  • Apple: releases new phones just before Christmas, therefore people buy it as Christmas presents

Q

Factors Influencing Sucsess

How does economics effect a designs sucsess

and apple example

A
  • what is the economic climate?
  • Lots of money in the economy? More disposable imcome
  • will it benifit the economy by increasing productionn or creating jobs
  • Price Point
  • how much are customers willing to pay
  • apple: has phones at different price points to accomodate budget
  • but still known as market leaders (get more customers)
  • Cost of production

Q

Factors Influencing Sucsess

How do emerging technologies effect a products sucsess

A
  • Emerging technologies are defined as new technologies that are not yet in common use
  • Emerging technology can be really expensive and unreliable, when first comes out
  • Inventions are not viable cus technology is not at state to use it yet
  • Use of technologies, wether they are reliable, affordable,
  • Drive innovation by allowing previously impossible designs to be manufactured.
  • What happens to innovation if the needed technology is not available?
  • Sometimes technology needs to catch up to designs and become affordable
