How can it be improved? What are likely sales volume/market shares? Identifies key purchase drivers Doesn’t require norms 2.Concept Screening or Basic Concept Testing Appends segmentation modeling for analyses: concept response based segments, early adopters, brand loyalty Cost efficient method of truncating and deconstructing concepts allows for greater number of concepts exposed in 20-minute survey 3.Concept Optimization using Conjoint/Discrete Choice Analysis Allows respondents to design their optimal product Provides simulation phase to determine market share and gauge competitive response
