What is concept testing?

Concept testing is the investigation of potential consumers’ reactions to a proposed product or service — before introducing the product or service to market. As organizations look to launch a product or invest in the development of an idea, concept testing is essential to identifying perceptions, wants and needs associated with a product or service.
