Introduction

Abstract

Introduction:

The results feature a summary of surgeons' product use and loyalty. Included is a multivariate derived metric estimating the relative value of brands in comparison to competitive products. In addition to the loyalty measure, the report also features a satisfaction measure for each of the featured products.

The results of the data analyses reveal significant market dynamics regarding cross-use of competitive brands and brand switching within some of the product categories. A clear and strong relationship between product use, loyalty and satisfaction is identified. As might be expected, the products used most frequently have the highest satisfaction and loyalty ratings. The relative positioning of products, based on loyalty and satisfaction, identifies the leading companies within various product categories. In spite of the relationship between loyalty and market share there are a select group of companies that have a small number of very satisfied and loyal users. Qualitative commentary provides strategic direction for companies to increase loyalty among their customers.

The information has applicability to advertising, sales, communications, product launches, product development, and strategic planning, as well as other business functions.

Methodology and Purpose of this Research

102 American Medical Association (AMA) board certified orthopedic surgeons were randomly selected from a list of 16,100 surgeons to participate in a self-administered questionnaire (SAQ) featured on the internet. Upon completion of the SAQ, 10 of the participants were selected to participate in a follow-up depth interview conducted via the telephone.

The purpose of the study is to measure experience, satisfaction and loyalty with a variety of products.
