B2B Launch Tips

B2B Launch Tip #10

Today's Schneider Associates B2B Launch Tip is: 10. Fight for bigger budgets. Asked what they would do to improve their next launch, the response that drew the largest number of votes was "increase the budget." By being last in line in the new product process, the launch team may get short shrift when budget dollars are being allocated. This is another reason to start launch planning as early in the new product process as possible before R&D and production gobble up the lion's share of resources.

B2B Launch Tip #9

Today's Schneider Associates B2B Launch Tip is: Include the right external profesionals on your team. Make sure the skill set of the external professionals on your launch team matches the launch activities in your plan. It's worth noting that the most critical success factors chosen by nearly all the B2B launchers in the survey were tasks that are best accomplished by a marketing communications firm. These factors included educating the sales force and internal audiences and generating word-of-mouth excitement. Yet, unfortunately, an ad agency is often the first --and sometimes only-- outside source many companies tap for launch advice. "To avoid this trap, make sure the skill set of the external professionals you add to your launch team matches the launch activities in your plan and includes Web experts, public relations professionals, channel distribution and sales promotion consultants," said Schneider.

B2B Launch Tip #8

Today's Schneider Associates B2B Launch Tip is:Do a great job educating your sales force and other internal audiences about your new product or service. When asked to select the top three factors that contributed the most to launch success, sales force preparation earned the most votes as an important success factor by far with both product (55%) and service companies (66%). Both types of companies also selected word-of-mouth campaigns as one of their top three success factors. The third highest contributor to launch success was different for product and service firms. Educating internal audiences was named by 29% of service companies, compared with just 16% of product companies. On-line campaigns also received 29% of votes from service companies. For product companies, distributor/retailer/dealer education earned the third highest number of votes, with 33% calling it a top three success factor.

B2B Launch Tip #7

Today's Schneider Associates B2B Launch Tip is: 7. Measure the right success metrics.

B2B Launch Tip #6

Today's Schneider Associates B2B Launch Tip is: 6. Spend Money on Word of Mouth Campaigns Rather than on Advertising.

B2B Launch Tip #5

Today's Schneider Associates B2B Launch Tip is: 5. Determine your launch performance measures before the launch begins. "It is smart to have something against which to measure the progress of your launch as it moves forward," said Schneider. "Such information provides vital guidance about whether launch strategies are achieving your goals or need rethinking. Determing how you'll measure the success of your launch before the effort starts will also help you with other important planning tasks such as budgeting and strategy."

B2B Launch Tip #4

Today's Schneider Associates B2B Launch Tip is: 4. Establish your launch budget as early in the product development phase as possible. 67% of the companies surveyed maintained stable budget levels throughout their launches. This indicates they did a good job of estimating budget needs and had effective budget controls.

B2B Launch Tip #3

Today's Schneider Associates B2B Launch Tip is: 3. Establish your launch budget as early in the product development phase as possible. The majority of the successful launchers in the survey established budgets during the development phase or earlier. This provides food for thought for any company that is currently waiting until further along in the process to begin thinking about the launch budget.

B2B Launch Tip #2

Today's Schneider Associates B2B Launch Tip is: 2. Establish a separate launch budget. If launch spending is not budgeted separately, it's difficult to monitor how effective various launch activities are and whether launch spending is adequate to succeed.

B2B Launch Tip #1

Schneider Associates recently collaborated recently with the Center for Business Innovation at Babson College on the Schneider Associates Business-to-Business Launch Survey, which identified 10 tips companies can use to improve their odds of launch success in the highly competitive B2B market. Launch TV is profiling these tips so you can have a better sense of how to have a successful B2B launch. This video contains a clip from a presentation given by Joan Schneider, President of Schneider Associates, at the PDMA New England Chapter meeting. Today's Schneider Associates B2B Launch Tip is: 1. Have a documented launch process. "Everyone should have a roadmap when launching a B2B product or service," said Joan Schneider, author of New Product Launch: 10 Proven Strategies, a breakthrough book that advises companies on how to launch new products. "Having a documented launch process helps identify what's working and what's not so you can improve with each new launch."
