Case Study
The Challenge
A small CPG brand was developing a line to compete in a new, highly-competitive healthy snacking category. Without a large marketing budget, the brand came to Zeitgeist Research to map the decision path within their category so they could identify where they have the greatest opportunity to influence purchase behavior.
Our Approach
We executed a two-phase research plan, first conducting Shop-Alongs with the target audience to map the decision path. We then conducted a survey to quantify the insights from phase one and identify key purchase drivers using a regression analysis.
Our Recommendation
We found that most consumers make their purchase decision in the health snacking category at the shelf and messaging outside of the store was largely ineffective. Knowing this, the brand updated its packaging and POS signage based on the key purchase drivers found through this research. By understanding the decision path, our client was able to devote its limited marketing resources where they would be most impactful, driving sales at the shelf and rapidly growing the new brand.
Let’s work together.
