New Product Development

Our philosophy on NPD:


Winning products beat the competition at the point of use. They do this by
delivering against consumer wants and needs – and this is why we believe
in the primacy of understanding product performance in terms of both
emotional and rational criteria.

Successful NPD is an accelerated route to growth and in our experience
the best innovation programmes deliver success by going beyond creating
great ideas, by ensuring they are well executed and can beat the
competition. Our expertise is to help our clients plan for success by
overcoming the potential causes of failure.

Our focus during idea generation is to build strong consumer platforms as
the basis for meeting consumer needs; we then subject the ideas to a
commercially rigorous development and decision making framework – an
approach we call creative pragmatism (or freedom within the framework).

We then apply our skills in packaging and design optimisation and shopper
and category marketing to help ensure that the great ideas are well
executed in the market place and given the opportunity to realise their full
potential.
 
Tangible is a marketing consultancy specialising in helping brand owners to grow their business.

Our approach is built on gathering consumer insight and combining it with commercial understanding to generate ideas that deliver top line growth for brand owners. The brand owners we work with include market leaders and challengers as well as new entrants in sectors including Food, Beverage, Household, Retail, and Pharmaceuticals in the UK and overseas.

All Tangible clients share the common goal of growth, and our contribution is to give actionable and independent consultancy based on superior consumer insight. Our outputs are tangible ideas and implementation plans; we do not sell packaging, advertising or point of sale and have no vested interest in any particular solution – other than being sure that it will help to deliver growth.

Contact us to find out how we can become the growth engine for your business.
We have research venues and workshop spaces in Windsor and Sheffield. Both include high
quality viewing facilities and break out rooms – and are offered to our clients free of charge.


Our facilities have specifically designed areas to enable us to talk to and observe consumers in a variety of contexts – in domestic environments, in simulated shops and also in virtual reality.
