Summary
SRI is a way of normalising these differences to allow a direct comparison
SRI identifies total launch achievements and the underlying consumer trends
Using this knowledge from all major launches in the category, J&J can now interpret the early signs to spot their rockets
Traditional measures do not allow consistent comparison of launches between different categories, markets and seasons
