product strategy that addresses key elements such as product ideation, concept development,
design, testing, and launch.
Product Strategy:
Identifying Customer Needs: A thorough market analysis is conducted to identify gaps in the
market and customer needs that the new product/service can meet.
Idea Generation: A cross-functional team consisting of product managers, designers, and
engineers brainstorm and generate potential ideas based on the identified needs.
Concept Development: The team evaluates and develops the most promising ideas into
concepts, taking into account factors such as feasibility, profitability, and strategic fit.

expectations of the customers.
Launch: The product/service is launched in the market, with a comprehensive marketing and
communication plan to generate awareness, interest, and demand among the target audience.
In terms of the specific product, the new product/service should complement the flush door,
and align with the company's mission and values. It could be an add-on feature or accessory
that enhances the functionality or aesthetic appeal of the flush door, or a complementary
service that offers installation, repair, or maintenance support to customers.

omplement the "flush door." One potential option is a smart door lock.

A smart door lock is a high-tech device that uses technology like Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or Zigbee
to enable remote access and control of the lock. With a smart lock, users can lock and unlock
their doors using a smartphone app, a key fob, or even their voice. Smart locks can also be
integrated with other smart home devices, such as security cameras, to provide a complete
home security system.

A smart door lock would be an ideal complement to a flush door because it would provide an
additional layer of security and convenience for homeowners. Since flush doors are designed
to be sleek and unobtrusive, a smart lock would fit in seamlessly with the door's aesthetic.
The lock could be mounted directly onto the flush door, eliminating the need for additional
hardware or installation.
In addition to residential applications, smart locks could also be used in commercial settings,
such as offices or retail stores, where secure access control is essential. A flush door with an
integrated smart lock would provide a clean and modern look while enhancing security and
access control.

Overall, a smart door lock would be a great complement to a flush door, adding convenience
and security to any home or office

To simplify the product, a basic smart door lock with fewer features could be designed.
Instead of integrating the lock with multiple technologies like Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or Zigbee,
the lock could use a simple, reliable wireless technology like RFID (Radio Frequency
Identification) or NFC (Near Field Communication) for remote access and control.
The lock could have a straightforward installation process, with clear instructions and easy-
to-use tools provided in the package. The lock could also have a simplified user interface
with fewer options and settings, making it easier for users to understand and operate.
The design of the lock could be minimalistic, with a sleek and unobtrusive appearance that
complements the flush door. The lock could be made using durable, high-quality materials
that are easy to clean and maintain.
By simplifying the smart door lock, it would be more affordable, accessible, and easier to
use, making it an attractive option for homeowners and businesses looking to enhance their
security and access control

Value-based pricing: This involves setting the price based on the perceived value of the
product to the customer. The price would be based on factors such as the quality, features,

smart door lock with advanced features and integration with other smart home devices could
be priced higher than a basic model.

the market. The aim is to price the product competitively while still maintaining profitability.

are purchased together as a bundle. This strategy can encourage customers to purchase both
