Relative Performance and Customer Value

Chapter 3

If the average performance rating of sixty-two printers is 61 according to Consumer Reports, and HP’s performance rating is 73, what is HP’s relative performance rating?

Relative Performance = (73/61)*100= 120.

Measuring Perceived Customer Value

Customer perceptions shape assessments of customer value. In many cases, customers consider more than product performance when they assess the overall value of a product.

Perceived Customer Value

= Overall Performance Index (Overall benefits) – Cost of Purchase Index (cost)

= (Perceived Product Performance + Perceived Service Performance + Perceived Brand Reputation) – Cost of Purchase

Advantage: When the business is significantly better (>1 points) than a competitor, it gets the relative importance points.

Disadvantage: If it is significantly worse (> -1 points), it loses the relative importance points.

No advantage/disadvantage: Between -1 and +1 no points are won or lost.

Overall Performance

MBM6

Chapter 4

Because each core area of performance could have different importance to customers, these area are assigned a Relative Importance.

The overall performance is a weighted average of the relative advantage and relative importance for the three core areas of performance.

In this case the overall performance is 123.

Relative Importance x Relative Advantage= Performance score

18

Cost of Purchase

MBM6

Chapter 4

The cost of purchase is rated the same way. However, a higher rating means a higher cost and a lower rating a lower cost.

For the business its purchase price is 27% higher but service and repair 10% lower than its three competitors. Overall, their cost of purchase is 3% higher than competitors.

Identifying Value Drivers and Level of Price Sensitivity Using Conjoint Analysis

MBM6

Chapter 4

The Customer Experience

and Value Creation

Conjoint analysis is a tool widely used in marketing to estimate the relative importance of different factors that influence people’s decision.

22

Conjoint Analysis: Price-Performance Trade-Offs

Step 1:

Set up two performance features each with 3 levels of performance and price at 3 price levels.

Step 2:

Rank the 9 options presented from 1 (most preferred) to 9 (least preferred).

These nine options (generated by conjoint analysis software) are a representative subset of 27 (3x3x3) combinations.

Step 1 Set-Up

Step 2 Rank Preferences

23

Customer Preferences & Price Sensitivity

Customer Preferences

Which factor is most important?

Across different factors, the larger the range from low score to high score, the more important that attribute is.

What is the incremental benefit of a large hamburger over an average size?

Within the same factor, the bigger the jump from a lower score to a higher score, the more incremental benefits the change will bring to the customers.

Chapter 3

Your strategy: everything in the mid range. (What would be the Value Index of a $2.50 hamburger, with average size and 5 minutes wait time)?

Customer Value Index = Hamburger Size +Wait Time + Hamburger Price

CVI= .8+.67+.67= 2.14

Strategy A: Pursue the high-end market. (high price for a small burger, short wait time)

CVI= 0 +.33 +.80= 1.13

Strategy B: Pursue the low-end market. (low price for a big burger, long wait time)

CVI= 1 +.33 +.80= 2.13
