1.1 C Why B2B is Different: INTELLECTUAL INNOVATION Exercise
Students are asked to create and describe a new usage purpose and or a new consumer for a specified product or offering.
1. Divide teams into groups of 4-52. Read 1.1 C Decision Situation found on page 10.3. Provide the following instructions:
You are your team are role playing the roles of Lindsay and Derek. Based on your previous successes and your strong desire to succeed in your new role you want to create the winning product concept, usage situation and customer.
Provide a summary, in an email format that describes the product concept/idea. Be thorough in your description of the intended customer, usage situation, consumption rates, incremental sales etc to try to convince upper management you have a thorough understanding of B2B marketing management.
Try to be as innovative as possible noting that identifying new usage purposes is a way to achieve sales growth as long as it does not detract from the original usage purposes (ex: Baking soda as a baking product, a digestive aid, teeth cleanser, household cleanser, and leavening agent in baking.)
When you complete your email, you will present it to the other teams in a brief 3 minute exchange. Only one product concept will be forwarded to upper management.
4. Check on the progress of each group, making certain that teams have varying innovations/product concepts.5. Once all teams have read their emails, students vote on most marketable or most innovative concept. Often is it easier to narrow the
vote to top two choices then revote. 6. Discussion: Ask the students why some product concepts were dismissed and why others were more attractive. Suggest students
support their answers with strategic marketing decision making.

Uncrustables are sold in the freezer section of the grocery store and were originally launched as a premium consumer ready to eat consumer item. Growth of the product expanded into new markets and Uncrustables are now frequently purchased by institutions such as universities, day care facilities, schools and restaurants. Due to their high level of success, Lindsay and Derek have been assigned a new challenge:
CURRENT SITUATION
Based on their success in the consumer market division, the Smuckers B2B division has requested that Lindsay and Derek join the industrial/commercial enterprise segment of their marketing department. They must develop an innovative new usage purpose for Smuckers fruit filling at the B2B level.
They agreed to brainstorm different usage purposes and then identify the intended customer for each purpose.
DECISION
You have been asked to assist Derek and Lindsay in identifying key usage purposes and the intended customer in an email summary which highlights the product concept, customer and usage purposes, and supporting marketing strategy.
