sales potential for the vacuum pump in market segments such as home
refrigerators repairs (60,000 units ), light commercial refrigerator
repairs(40,000 units) and residential AC repairs (1,25,000 units).

2.What additional value placeholders, elements not presently quantified, merit


consideration in your value model?
Price sensitivity needs to be taken care of considering technicians value that the
most. Operational costs should be minimized.

3.Construct a customer value model for the Kunst 1600 in the residential AC, home
refrigerator, and light commercial refrigerator repair market segments.
Value model should be focused on cost savings since from the interactions its
evident that most technicians do not value the performance factors and saving in
vacuuming time or have heard of the brand as such and expect higher size
specifications and do not take smaller size as an advantage

4.Using your value model, select a target market segment(s) for commercialization
efforts. Justify your choice.

Price sensitive customers in the home and light commercial refrigerator repair
sections .Focussing on cutting down costs rather than focusing excessively on the
features and specifications since that is not the expectation of the customer

5. Write a value proposition for the Kunst 1600 for the target market(s).
Value proposition should be based on minimizing the operational costs rather than
investing too much on features and specifications. . It is also essential in conducting
higher awareness marketing as the refrigerator segment customers are not familiar
with the Kunst brand.
