Written Assignment

Come up with an idea for a new product that would provide relevant digital information to a person in some situation.  Pattie Maes presented several examples in the video.  Next, clearly explain the benefits your new product would provide to a group of consumers and how it would be better than what they currently use/do. 

Finally, discuss how you think the success of your new product would be influenced by each of the five characteristics of an innovation (i.e., relative advantage, compatibility, complexity, divisibility, and communicability).  (Note: Review both Chapter 20 of the Kotler & Keller textbook and the grading rubric as you prepare your written assignment.)

Your written assignment should be no more than 2 pages long, not including any citations.  Your written assignment should reflect proper grammar, spelling, and style.  Any source citations should use APA formatting.
