THE MARKET STUDY OF THE GENIUS PEN

New product development strategy • Market segmentation AUI • Market targeting students & teachers • Market positioning The need of a new product that satisfies the consumers • Business analysis The cost and The price of the Genius pen • Test marketing testing the product & making advertisement

Market targeting • Students & teachers at AUI use different materials concerning studies • The chart show the use of students of 5 items included in the Genius pen depending on the results of the survey

Market positioning • Students & Teachers stated that they loose their materials frequently • As a result, the Geniuses thought of the Genius pen that satisfies their needs

Business Analysis • Defining the cost and benefits of the Genius pen, we chose the cost-based pricing method. • This method consist on: • Total project cost + Standard markup for profit

Pricing

Comparaision between our pens and other ones (Showing other pens to compare them with our genius pen to show the usefulness of ours. ) Nothing to signal Is there any competitive pens

The degital voice pen recorder • This pen is able to record voices. For example: during the meetings and encounters. • But our pen contain the same function, plus other ones at the same time.

Pen style laser pointer • This pen contain a Visible laser Diode. It can be used during presentation to point details for example. • But our pen also contain a suitable professional laser.

Pen with sharp tools • We can add to this pen many kind of tools like: cutting blade, saw or even stainless steel file. • But this tools are really unsafe for the students and can be very dangerous if they are not used in an appropriate way.

Digital FM Radio Pen • This pen features digital searching of stations for clear reception. • However, this pen is just for entertainment, so not really useful for the students.

Conclusion • So from all the precedent compatative pens. Our Genius pen is really the ideal one because it containes this 7 functions: pen, pencil, roller, eraser, recorder, laser and pen sharping. Furthermore, this pen is not a toy to play with it, but it has fucntions that can help the student for hisher academic studies.
