Market Validation for Products
When expanding your business internationally, it is essential to validate your products in different markets. This process involves testing your products with potential customers in the target market to understand their preferences and buying habits. This is where surveys and image testing come in handy.
What Should You Test?
It is important to note that when conducting surveys and image testing for international Amazon expansion, you should not just test your main image. Other factors, such as your brand name and logo, should be tested too. You should also consider adjusting your brand messaging and positioning to appeal to the local audience.
For instance, it is essential to ensure that your brand name is not offensive in the local language. Additionally, it is important to understand the local culture and their buying habits. For example, there may be differences in shopping habits between the USA and the UK. Even brand colors can have associations that may not translate well in different cultures.
Product Packaging Testing
Product packaging is also an important factor to consider when expanding your business internationally. You need to test how the information is presented and whether bold marketing claims are effective. It is essential to be more factual by listing features instead of making exaggerated claims.
You can use open-ended questions to gather more information from potential customers. For example, if you are targeting a German audience and selling teapots, you could ask what is important to them when buying a teapot. By doing this, you can understand the local preferences and tailor your product accordingly.
