Product Analysis
It is best to analyse 4-6 products, but do not use more than one or two slides on this section.
It important that you demonstrate that you can use primary and secondary product analysis.
Primary is where you are photographed analysing products, whilst secondary product analysis is where you source images from magazines or the internet and analyse the image of them.
To complete the Product Analysis you can use ACCESSFMM to carry out analysis of existing products. The questions are similar, but slightly different, from those you asked during the Task Analysis.
What do you think works well with the product? and what could you change to make it better?You can use this information when developing your own similar product - You can include some of the things that you think worked well, and add the improvements that you suggested to create a brand new product that will beat your competition.
