Consumer Behavior

Dive Deep With Us to Understand Your Consumers

20 years ago, no one could have predicted the rise of smart phones, yoga pants, kombucha, and electric cars. What’s next?

A deep understanding of how consumers shop and engage with categories powerfully illuminates opportunities for brand expansion, customer acquisition, and innovation investments.

How We Measure Consumer Behavior and Perceptions

We leverage a set of proprietary modules that probe deeply into how consumers spend and perceive categories. Our Consumer Behavior modules draw on representative, large samples to derive robust insight into past, present and future adoption of products; perceptions and attitudes of and within categories; and brand penetration across markets.

Meet Our Consumer Behavior Modules

Our Consumer Behavior and Market Sizing modules go far beyond “size of prize” by shedding quantitative light on traditionally difficult-to-measure behaviors and attitudes. Drawing from years of building and managing surveys, we have identified these modules as the most commonly used to measure behavior and perceptions.
