Interviewing Marketing Contacts

January 15, 2019 by Don Debelak

Support from Marketing Contacts is real plus in generating support for your business. Those interviews can help you get support from manufacturers, or can be a key selling point when you work on licensing and private label deals. But a short interview report, that the person likes the product or that the product will sell is not as effective as a more extensive interview.

You should try to get as much market intelligence information as you can in an interview besides whether they like the product.

  1. What do they see are the main competitors to your product?
  2. Are people happy with those competitors?
  3. Are there any concerns the market has about those competitors?
  4. Have there been any recent product introductions in this market area?
  5. Were those introductions successful?
  6. If there were failures, what caused them.
  7. What do they feel are your products strong points?
  8. What do they feel are your products weak points?
  9. Do they feel your product will succeed in the market?
