Concept (MVP/POC) Testing

Even the best idea is nothing without confronting it with reality. That’s why evaluating your business ideas is crucial before investing time and money. The best way to do it is called concept testing.

What is
Concept (MVP/POC) Testing?

Concept testing is a research method to evaluate new product or service ideas before market launch.

MVP (Minimum Viable Product) refers to creating a product with the minimum necessary features to satisfy early users and gather feedback for future development.

POC (Proof of Concept) is a demonstration to verify that certain aspects of a concept or theory are feasible, often used in the early stages of development to assess the practicality of an idea.

MVP and POC are crucial in validating a product's viability and potential success before fully committing to its development.

Benefits of
→ Concept (MVP/POC) Testing

Concept testing is a research method evaluating new product or service ideas before they are introduced to the market. So, what value does it bring to your business?

Risk Reduction

Early testing of an MVP or POC helps identify and address potential issues before a full-scale launch, significantly reducing the risk of failure.

Cost Efficiency

Testing a simpler, less expensive product version first allows for understanding its viability without incurring the high costs of full product development.

Feedback Gathering

MVP/POC testing provides an opportunity to gather early user feedback, crucial for refining and improving the product based on customer needs and preferences.

Market Validation

This process validates the market demand for the product, ensuring an audience or customer base is interested in it before extensive resources are invested.

Faster Time to Market

By focusing on developing and testing the essential features first, companies can expedite the process of bringing their product to market.

Iterative Development

MVP/POC testing supports an iterative development approach, allowing for continuous product improvement based on real-world testing and feedback, leading to a more refined final product.

Our Approach to
Concept (MVP/POC) Testing

Concept testing typically involves various methods to gather feedback from potential customers. These methods help companies understand how their product or service concept is perceived and the likelihood of its use or purchase.

Successful concept testing requires a deep understanding of the target group and asking specific, relevant questions. Our approach to these tests is based on four pillars:

Surveys
We utilise structured questionnaires to collect quantitative data. Surveys are effective for reaching a large audience quickly and can provide statistical insights into customer preferences and behaviours.
In-depth Interviews
We conduct one-on-one interviews for detailed, qualitative insights. These interviews allow for a deeper exploration of customer opinions and thoughts, providing rich and nuanced feedback.
Focus Groups
The next step is brainstorming. We gather a small, diverse group of people to discuss the concept. This method helps understand different perspectives and uncover insights that may not come out in one-on-one conversations.
Online Platforms (e.g., Lookback, Google Meet)
We use digital platforms for remote concept testing. These tools help reach a broader, possibly global audience and facilitate live interactions and asynchronous feedback.
