Figure 5.6: Adopter Categorization on the Basis of Relative Time
of Adoption of Innovations
Characteristics of Innovators



Relatively younger, better educated, higher
income.
More receptive to unfamiliar things, rely more
on their own values and judgment, more
willing to take risk
Less brand-loyal, more likely to take
advantage of special promotions such as
discounts, coupons, and samples.






Relative Advantage: Is the innovation superior to
existing products?
Compatibility: Does the innovation fit the values
and experience of the target market?
Complexity: Is the innovation difficult to understand
or use?
Divisibility: Can the innovation be used on a limited
basis?
Communicability: Can results be easily observed
or described to others?
