Our Approach
Our integrated research approach allowed us to fuel understanding and direction throughout each project stage.
Phase 1
Branding consolidation and quality control:
- Our team conducted 100 studies, thoroughly evaluating the retailer's product lines and consumer liking.
- We launched Home Use Tests (HUTs) to uncover consumer product interactions in their own environments.
- Additional studies were administered within our Consumer Centers.
Phase 2
Consumer experience and path to purchase
- Leveraging eye-tracking technology, we provided 30-minute shop-a-longs with consumers across the client's retail network.
- We mapped out consumers' navigation through stores to track their retail journeys and highlight key trends and patterns.
- Our team then conducted in-depth interviews with the same participants, illuminating critical insight into consumers' shopping mindsets.
