5. THE BASICS
Define Product
Define Customers
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 5
Dnepropetrovsk 息 2012 Earle Hager
6. VALUE STATEMENT
Eventually, your technology will become part of a
product on the market.
What is the product?
Why buy the product?
What is your value to each part of the product
chain?
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 6
Dnepropetrovsk 息 2012 Earle Hager
7. DEFINE PRODUCT
Who has the problem?
Who is willing to pay to fix the problem?
What is it worth to fix the problem?
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 7
Dnepropetrovsk 息 2012 Earle Hager
8. MARKET ASSESSMENT
The market assessment also includes the evaluation
of your ability to enter the market.
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 8
Dnepropetrovsk 息 2012 Earle Hager
9. TWO STATEMENTS
These two statements will end any discussion of your
idea:
I have no competition.
Everyone in the world is my potential customer.
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 9
Dnepropetrovsk 息 2012 Earle Hager
10. COMMODITY
Is the product a commodity? Both products and
services can be commodities.
Define your market so you will be first or number one
in your market. This is how you differentiate.
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 10
Dnepropetrovsk 息 2012 Earle Hager
11. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
Do you need protection
in multiple countries?
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 11
Dnepropetrovsk 息 2012 Earle Hager
12. PRODUCT SYSTEM
Is the Product part of a larger system?
Will you be part of a larger product?
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 12
Dnepropetrovsk 息 2012 Earle Hager
13. OUR EXAMPLE - WHAT IS IT?
The technology is a smartphone application which
will allow medical staff to scan patient information
and medications and upload them to the patient
accounting system via hospital Wi-Fi.
Cost savings will be found in more efficient inventory
tracking and more accurate patient billing.
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 13
Dnepropetrovsk 息 2012 Earle Hager
14. WHAT IS IT? PART ONE
Its an inexpensive application to be sold online.
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 14
Dnepropetrovsk 息 2012 Earle Hager
15. WHAT IS IT? PART TWO
Its part of a hospital inventory system which allows
the hospital to manage on floor inventory as well as
managing the ordering process.
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 15
Dnepropetrovsk 息 2012 Earle Hager
16. WHAT IS IT? PART THREE
Therefore, its part of a hospital information system.
Inventory tracking is part of the ordering and
patient billing process. The more efficient this
process, the more efficient the billing process.
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 16
Dnepropetrovsk 息 2012 Earle Hager
17. WHAT IS IT? A SUMMARY
In the first slide, limited. In the second slide and third
slide, your customers are software companies which
sell hospital information system, hospital
administration groups, and other groups which
need to track inventory and billing.
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 17
Dnepropetrovsk 息 2012 Earle Hager
18. COMPELLING PROBLEM WITH COST
Problem Definition is Key
Establish interest of listener who will follow your
solution.
Assume listener is knowledgeable in your business
area.
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 18
Dnepropetrovsk 息 2012 Earle Hager
19. COMPELLING PROBLEM WITH
COST - EXAMPLE
Administrative time for keying information 12%
Lack of timely inventory management
More efficient order management
More accurate patient billing
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 19
Dnepropetrovsk 息 2012 Earle Hager
20. BAD EXAMPLE - COMPELLING
PROBLEM WITH COST
Hospital staff must enter information on patient
medicines on a regular basis
Time savings from use of scanning system
Less mistakes
Everyone has a smart phone
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 20
Dnepropetrovsk 息 2012 Earle Hager
21. DISCUSSION OF HOW PRODUCT IS USED
Demonstrate your knowledge of the business and
the products currently in use
Demonstrate why your idea is an improvement on
the current systems
Justify why your solution
is unique or protected by patent
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 21
Dnepropetrovsk 息 2012 Earle Hager
22. DISCUSSION OF HOW PRODUCT
IS USED - EXAMPLE
Doctors and nurses scan information at patient
bedside
Synchronization occurs automatically on
predefined intervals or events
In the event a bar code is unreadable, the
information will be manually reentered at the
nurses station
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 22
Dnepropetrovsk 息 2012 Earle Hager
23. BAD EXAMPLE - NO DISCUSSION OF
HOW PRODUCT IS USED
Nurses scan patient and medical bar codes and
therefore save time using our system
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 23
Dnepropetrovsk 息 2012 Earle Hager
24. DISCUSSION OF SYSTEMS
Your product is part of a larger system
How the product is implemented and utilized is key
to your success
Your understanding of systems demonstrates your
knowledge of the business issues
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 24
Dnepropetrovsk 息 2012 Earle Hager
25. DISCUSSION OF SYSTEMS - EXAMPLE
The smartphone application uploads a CSV file to
the main hospital IS systems which can be imported.
The application uses the hospital Wi-Fi for
communications.
By scanning patient medicine bar codes, there will
be no requirement to download information, only
uploading data.
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 25
Dnepropetrovsk 息 2012 Earle Hager
26. BAD EXAMPLE - NO DISCUSSION
OF SYSTEMS
The smartphone application is a standalone device
and can be used with any hospital information
system.
It reads all bar codes.
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 26
Dnepropetrovsk 息 2012 Earle Hager
27. DOCUMENTATION OF ROI
Definition of the problem leads to definition of the
cost of fixing the problem.
Key step is to identify the groups who have the
problem and can justify spending to fix the
problem.
ROI includes the cost
of not fixing the problem,
which is an option.
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 27
Dnepropetrovsk 息 2012 Earle Hager
28. DOCUMENTATION OF ROI - EXAMPLE
Efficient tracking allows more thorough accurate
billing of products.
More efficient tracking of administrative costs /
overhead associated with the product.
Updated inventory management allows for more
efficient order quantities
and floor stocking.
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 28
Dnepropetrovsk 息 2012 Earle Hager
29. DOCUMENTATION OF
ROI BAD EXAMPLE
Less administrative time for nurses.
Less nurses and hospital staff required.
Low cost to enter information.
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 29
Dnepropetrovsk 息 2012 Earle Hager
30. NOT EVERYONE IS A CUSTOMER
Startups cannot focus on everyone as a target.
Defining targets by a problem area or size allows
you to allocate resources for specific groups.
Building on successes at one customer will allow you
to use their testimonial at similar customers.
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 30
Dnepropetrovsk 息 2012 Earle Hager
31. NOT EVERYONE IS A
CUSTOMER - EXAMPLE
Targeting 100-500 bed hospitals in the EU
Larger hospitals have their own systems
Smaller hospitals will not see the ROI
There are 252 hospitals in the EU who fit our profile
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 31
Dnepropetrovsk 息 2012 Earle Hager
32. BAD EXAMPLE - EVERYONE
IS A CUSTOMER
All hospitals give medicine to patients and need to
track the accounting.
We need to cover all hospitals.
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 32
Dnepropetrovsk 息 2012 Earle Hager
33. THERE IS COMPETITION
Competition is necessary it defines a market which
has needs you can address.
Competition allows you to define your solution in
terms of options on the market.
Competition allows you to develop a sales strategy
in terms of products already in the marketplace.
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 33
Dnepropetrovsk 息 2012 Earle Hager
34. THERE IS COMPETITION - EXAMPLE
Multiple competitors exist in larger IS systems for
hospitals.
There is a low barrier to entry in the development of
smartphone applications.
Under current billing processes, hospitals may not
have a compelling reason to implement the system.
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 34
Dnepropetrovsk 息 2012 Earle Hager
35. BAD EXAMPLE - THERE
IS NO COMPETITION
There are no competitors in this space who are
focusing on the hospital market.
It is difficult to create systems which solve the
problem we have described.
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 35
Dnepropetrovsk 息 2012 Earle Hager
36. IP STRATEGY
IP allows you to mark off a space in the
marketplace for your product.
Without IP, you must create a sales / marketing
advantage for your product.
Both models will work.
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 36
Dnepropetrovsk 息 2012 Earle Hager
37. IP STRATEGY - EXAMPLE
We have developed a provisional patent
application in conjunction with our attorney.
The product is a sales / marketing play and we will
be developing the name
brand by trademarks and
web site reservations.
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 37
Dnepropetrovsk 息 2012 Earle Hager
38. BAD EXAMPLE - NO IP STRATEGY
We have taken no steps to copyright, trademark, or
patent our product line.
We have no strategy to create a name brand for
products which are a sales / marketing play.
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 38
Dnepropetrovsk 息 2012 Earle Hager
39. INTERNAL EXPERTS AND ADVISORS
Seek external advisors with industry experience.
Experts are critical for networking and introductions,
not just advice.
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 39
Dnepropetrovsk 息 2012 Earle Hager
40. INTERNAL EXPERTS AND
ADVISORS - EXAMPLE
Key advisor Herbert von Karajan, former hospital
administrator, Berlin Philharmonic Hospital.
Beta site Staff members of the PDQ Bach Hospital,
Warsaw, Poland have agreed to help evaluate the
product during the pre-beta and beta stages.
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 40
Dnepropetrovsk 息 2012 Earle Hager
41. BAD EXAMPLE - NO INTERNAL EXPERTS
OR ADVISORS
We are a team of 5 programmers who have
developed several games for the iPhone and
Android phone.
Sales are small but we have demonstrated our
ability to create and sell the game.
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 41
Dnepropetrovsk 息 2012 Earle Hager
42. SALES PROCESS
Critical to all planning
Understand customer targets, length of time to
close sale, time to place orders, time to supply, time
to receive payment.
From the initial contact, this can be 6-9 months on a
successful sale.
Establish plan which allows
you to survive between the
sale and payment.
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 42
Dnepropetrovsk 息 2012 Earle Hager
43. SALES PROCESS - EXAMPLE
Pilot of 1 hospital for beta phase
Target 15 geographical advantageous hospital for
first quarter
Develop sales plan for additional 100 hospitals for
2011
Advance sales plan for
additional 100 hospitals
in 2012-2013
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 43
Dnepropetrovsk 息 2012 Earle Hager
44. BAD EXAMPLE - NO SALES PROCESS
Roll out to 75 new hospitals each quarter
System is self supporting
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 44
Dnepropetrovsk 息 2012 Earle Hager
45. PARTNERSHIPS FOR MANUFACTURING
AND SALES FORCE
As a startup, you have limited resources for
infrastructure.
Use contract manufacturing and determine the
point in sales when it is feasible to develop your own
manufacturing.
Use relationships with
complementary sales
organizations to
move product.
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 45
Dnepropetrovsk 息 2012 Earle Hager
46. PARTNERSHIPS FOR MANUFACTURING
AND SALES FORCE - EXAMPLE
We plan to leverage relationships with groups who
already sell to hospitals in our target market.
We plan to interface with other hospital IS systems
and become key partners to these organizations.
For manufacturing, we have identified contract
manufacturers.
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 46
Dnepropetrovsk 息 2012 Earle Hager
47. BAD EXAMPLE - CREATE OWN
MANUFACTURING AND SALES FORCE
We will hire a small sales force to contact these
hospitals and sell the product.
If there is manufacturing, we will need to build our
own plant.
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 47
Dnepropetrovsk 息 2012 Earle Hager
48. GOAL FOR END OF SECOND YEAR
Develop a vision for your organization at the end of
the second year.
Include revenue, staffing, customer base.
Develop implementation plan backwards from that
point and create milestones.
Stay focused on goals.
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 48
Dnepropetrovsk 息 2012 Earle Hager
49. GOAL FOR END OF SECOND
YEAR - EXAMPLE
Develop stable business process by mid 2012.
Develop network and relationships for growth with
revenue target of $1.5M US.
Anticipated sales to 175 hospitals by late 2013 with
staffing levels of 15 people for sales, support,
administration, and development.
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 49
Dnepropetrovsk 息 2012 Earle Hager
50. BAD EXAMPLE - NO GOAL FOR END OF
SECOND YEAR
Continue to grow sales
Add Asia and Middle East to targets in 2013
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 50
Dnepropetrovsk 息 2012 Earle Hager
51. REALISTIC FINANCIALS
Start from the bottom with planning.
Identify specific customers, action plans, and
expectations for closures.
Assign probabilities to unknowns.
Create realistic growth plan.
Do not create expectations
of controlling a percentage
of the market without putting
a name to the customers.
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and

53. DEFINE COMPETITION
You always have competition.
Who is your market? Geographic? Vertical?
Are competitors acting individually or moving
together?

55. RESEARCH MARKET
Localization Issues
Government Regulation to Import
Easy to do in bulk?
Process for importation?
Tariffs or favoritism to local products?
Directions / Labels / Manual in correct grammar?
Government Regulations to Sell
Local taxes and business establishment
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 55
Dnepropetrovsk 息 2012 Earle Hager
56. REMEMBER
The place most crossing-the-chasm marketing
segmentation efforts get into trouble is at the
beginning, when they focus on a target market or a
target segment instead of on a target customer.
From Crossing the Chasm
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 56

57. DIFFERENTIATION OF COMPETITION
How you are different
How you are the same

58. DEFINE CUSTOMERS
Sales Barriers to Competition

Funding
How accepted is the technology in the marketplace?
CRDF Training Ivano-Frankivsk and
April 2012 58
Dnepropetrovsk 息 2012 Earle Hager
59. COMPLIMENTARY COMPETITION
Other products in different spaces which will affect
budget decisions
If they dont spend money on you, where else will
they spend it?
When drug companies introduce new products,
insurance companies need to determine
reimbursement rates and hospitals must adjust their
budgets and make decisions on purchasing other
medications or treatments.
