Experience has shown that although it will not be used often, diagnosis
can be helpful in all pre- and post-launch circumstances, even in a
postmortem sense. The ultimate value of new product development
may be the learning it makes possible—learning how to adjust the
marketing program to consumer needs; learning how to educate the
potential buyer on the benefits of the new product; learning why the
product won't succeed in the market and why it should be abandoned
now; learning that complete withdrawal is not necessary, but that a
next-generation product can overcome the diagnosed difficulties; and,
perhaps most importantly, learning to have the patience to learn.
