    Thumbs up Help a Uni student out! Fun times

    Hey guys,

    I'm doing a massive marketing assignment for my stage 3 consumer behaviour paper, and since you're all consumers out there then I thought this would be a great place to get some research.

    I've made a survey about the upcoming product that we are going to be introducing into NZ, and it would be awesome if you guys could take part!

    The survey takes less than 5 mins, and it'll help me out heaps in terms of data!

    Just click the link and answer a couple of questions - http://www.esurveyspro.com/Survey.as...4-8a4eac8fbec5

    Over 40 we don't really need to specify which age-group segment people fit into, unlike being able to classify 12-18 as school kids etc.

    There is no website for any examples, this is a brand new product which we will be trying to run a new product campaign for, there is therefore not much information out there as of yet.

    Haha the two I show are the only pics we have of it that were in the course outline

    I worked with what I have!

    Vibrators huh? Hmmm don't think we'll be going down that line QUITE yet.

    I found too many of the questions I could not answer, started answering in good faith but gave up, yes I am over 40 so that was not a problem, but I dont live in Auckland either. Sorry I could not help more. One question had me completely stuffed though. The question of who is my mobile provider. I have both Telecom & Vodafone, I could not click both so gave up.

    Why not? And vibrators could be a very lucrative market.

    I think if you investigated this properly, that infact they are a very lucrative market indeed

    EDIT: Opps I forgot, skins or coverings for them are also very important in certain cases

    Auckland page skip fixed!

    You could have ticked "Other" and said "Both"

    Damn valid point though! Wonder if I can edit the question after commencing the survey.

    And one probably very receptive (nudge nudge) to innovation. After all, sex is all about novelty and excitement. SO who wants to dig out the same old same old every day.

    I think you should rethink your product positioning. Skins for cellphones is ancient, been there done that. How old was the person that set this assignment , anyway? Ancient, I bet (as well as being gay) . This is the 22nd century after all, marketing has to get with it.

    That's a very good point indeed.

    Is it possible to print onto latex? There may be a vast untapped market here.

    Mr Rob, I think you should reposition your product , and make your survey about novelty printed condoms. Much more interesting.

    Also, your product information is very deficient, you don't make it clear whether your product is environmentally aware and organic. That's important.

    Cheers for the feedback, all is helpful.

    Yeah well pretty much they came and told our class about the product and everyone said "Oh god what a piece of crap".

    Lol so yeah... But ah well they've recently launched in Melbourne and seem to be making some money over there so whatever floats their boat!

    I would much prefer being able to use super hot models to promote colourful and cartoony condoms, but this is what I got stuck with.

    Yeah well there are many types of consumers as you are well aware, the majority would prefer not reading about all that crap!

    We have some pretty clear ideas about what results will show and who will be interested, you're backing our thoughts up so that's perfect!!!

    Cheers everyone for taking your time to do it or say anything!
