Salary Range
$25,000 to $100,000+Overview
Product analysts help companies improve their products and their customers' experience with the products and the company. They use data analysis software to research market trends and competitors' products and services, to determine areas in which their companies' products can be improved; they also identify potential new products. The job requires strong knowledge of product management and statistics, technology skills, and the ability to organize complex information into written reports. A very small percentage of the nation's 228,470 logisticians are employed in the production of durable goods, or products. A similarly small percentage of market research analysts (out of 903,400 total) are employed in this area. These jobs share some of the same tasks as those of product analysts.
