COMMON CHALLENGES

How can I understand the local market and customers better?

Minna: The key to understand any market is research. It is important to tell the difference between a trend and a fad. Trends don’t appear and disappear yearly, they develop, mature and modulate. Your company needs to understand which trends are the ones you could benefit from in your product development.

To help our clients we paint the picture of consumer and design trends, competitor benchmarking and interpreted those information into crucial insights for clients’ business. Based on upcoming trends, we help clients to build their own brand and lead the market.

Maybe the most challenging part of entering Asian market is the language barrier. To get a seamless contact in any Asian market, it would be helpful to have a local onboard. Then your company would have the access to first-hand information from the local markets.

 

Can you help us to create product design suitable for Asian market?

Minna: Yes, sure. First, we can make sure that the design of your product is designed for the specific market. With the help of market study, local competition analyses and end user research, we make sure that your product has the right fit to the market. Secondly, we can help you to get in touch with local supplier network. We have a wide supplier network from our previous work history working for Nokia and Microsoft, that can speed the time to market with sourcing capable suppliers with scalable production.
