The Law of Market Failure: Most new products will fail in the market, even if
competently executed.Using his experience at Google, his remarkable success as an
entrepreneur and consultant, and insights from his lectures at Stanford University and
Google, Alberto Savoia’s The Right It offers an unparalleled approach to beating the
beast that is market failure.Millions of people around the world are working hard to
bring to life new ideas. Some of these ideas will turn out to be stunning successes
that will have a major impact on our world and our culture: The next Google, the next
Polio vaccine, the next Harry Potter, the next Red Cross, the next Ford Mustang.
Others will be smaller, more personal but no less meaningful, successes: A little
restaurant that becomes a neighborhood favorite, a biography that does not make the
best-seller list but tells an important story, a local nonprofit to care for abandoned
pets. At this very same moment, another group of people is working equally hard to
develop new ideas that, when launched, will fail. Some of them will fail spectacularly
and publicly: like New Coke, the movie “John Carter”, or the Ford Edsel. Others will
be smaller, more private, but no less painful failures: A home-based business that
never takes off, a children’s book that neither publishers nor children have any
interest in, a charity for a cause that too few people care enough about.If you are
currently working to develop a new idea, whether on your own or as part of a team,
which group are you in? Most people believe that they either are, or will be, in the
first group—the group whose ideas will be successful. All they have to do is work hard
and execute well. Unfortunately, we know that this cannot be the case. The law of
market failure tells us that up to 90 percent of most new products, services,
businesses, and initiatives will fail soon after they are launched—regardless of how
promising they sound, how much we commit to them, or how well we execute them.
This is a hard fact to accept. We believe that other people fail because they don’t
know what they are doing. Somehow, we believe that this does not apply to us and to
our idea—especially if we’ve experienced victories in the past.Filled with detailed case
studies, a lesson on creating your own hard data, a strategy for market engagement,
and an introduction to the concept of a pretotype (not a prototype), The Right It is a
groundbreaking, entertaining, and highly practical book delivers a proven formula for
turning ideas, products, services, and businesses into successful endeavors.As Alberto
writes, “make sure you are building The Right It before you build It right”.
