Navigating the State of U.S. Supplement Market with a Data-Driven Approach

September 28, 2023, at 2:00 pm EST

As more people have become familiar with supplements, we expect the future to be very bright for the industry. Some of the key entry categories remain innovative the more consumer-friendly delivery formats mean that more shoppers will stick in the category. We think the shifting mindset of supplements being part of the food as medicine movement will propel innovation and meet the values-oriented shoppers where they are.

  • Sports and Active Nutrition has been the fastest-growing supplement category for each of the past two years.
  • Coming off a few record-breaking years, the overall VMS landscape is flat in growth over the past 52 weeks, with most channels showing a decline in units sold.
  • The permanency of the behavior change for shoppers shifting online during the pandemic was overstated, with 92% of the growth in the category coming from brick and mortar store vs Amazon.

Webinar Objectives

  • Discuss why supplement prices have held pretty firm compared to food and beverages.
  • Discuss niche demographic categories like creatine are expanding their reach to women and older generations.

"Jobs to be Done" Insights Philosophy: Making Innovation More Predictable & Profitable

November 2, 2023, at 2:00 pm EST

Innovation is a top priority for consumer healthcare organizations, and yet despite businesses knowing more about their customers than ever before, innovation continues to be painfully hit and miss, often falling far short of ambitions.

We invite you to join a CHPA Academy webinar from Cambridge Design Partnership, to explore more about “Jobs To Be Done”: An insights philosophy that can be used to observe and understand markets, customer needs, competitors, and customer segments differently, and by doing so, making innovation far more predictable and profitable.

About “Jobs To Be Done”: The JTBD philosophy is grounded on the understanding that people 'hire' products to enable them to get a job (or jobs done). By discovering the jobs people are struggling to get done, new innovation opportunities are identified. JTBD allows for an inherently solution-agnostic approach to insights capture for innovation through a job-based frame of the problem. Instead of focusing on existing products and services; instantly time-stamping and limiting insight, JTBD defines time-stable innovation measures of unmet need and unshackles teams from existing technologies and platforms when considering how to address that valuable, newly uncovered opportunity.

 

Webinar Objectives

  • An introduction to the "Jobs To Be Done" Insights philosophy
  • How "Jobs To Be Done" can influence decision making within an organization to help identify and develop breakthrough innovation
