Good luck catching up with Fitbit in the wearable fitness tracker category.
According to new research from Parks Associates, Fitbit commands nearly 40% of the digital fitness tracker market, far ahead of competitors such as Samsung (14%), Nike + Sensor (14%) and Nike Fuelband (8%).
“Fitbit has been around for the last seven, eight years. It’s not an overnight success,” Harry Wang, director of health and mobile research at Parks, tells Marketing Daily. “The consumer needs to be aware of what’s out there. The timing was right for them.”
