Scope

Geo: 7 countries
Total Studies: 8
Timeline: 10 days/study

Context

CPG is a fast-evolving category with nuances of regulation & new age products disrupting sales & consumption. In line, the client is building a lot of product concepts (they call Innovations) which are based on various product traits their TG is interested in. They want to run these concepts through consumers of various TG to understand their preference and identify the winning concept. The agility of such research truly defines the innovation pace, and the ability to make decisions faster without compromising the accuracy is a game changer. Traditionally, Innovation Testing relies on surveys & qual. interviews with agency-led manual data analysis.

Problem Statement

Speed

Given multiple countries & niche languages, the research relied heavily on manual transcription & translation to capture feedback & analyze 100s of consumer interviews that took anywhere from 6-8 weeks.

Multi-geo Scalability

The operating markets are a few countries within SEA, each having their own language nuances, hence it was hard to scale a study which benchmarks preferences across cultures & languages.

Collaboration

The Innovation within the team is a function of the pace and holistic view of research being conducted. The agency method of doing research led to siloed insights & repetitive tasks.

Unbiased Insights

Current method relied on stated responses from surveys and interviews only.However, respondents are usually biased and talk about what’s “acceptable”. Hence, true feedback is often diluted or inaccurate.
