The way we interact with brand design is deeply implicit. We know that shoppers aren’t rational beings – rather, they’re guided by a mixture of intuition, habit and convenience. It’s important to bear in mind when approaching quantitative research.

The way we interact with brand design is deeply implicit. We know that shoppers aren’t rational beings – rather, they’re guided by a mixture of intuition, habit and convenience.

Many of our clients recognise this too. They’ve shared with us their frustrations that online quantitative methods struggle to account for these System 1 decisions.

Whilst online quantitative research offers a valuable alternative for exploring concepts and ideas earlier in the design process, it just won’t do when testing shelf performance.

We’ve recently launched a brand new offer – The Big Fixture. The Big Fixture is a behavioural quali-quant product designed to give you complete confidence towards the final stages of the design process.

By combining a range of behavioural methods including face-to-face shopping tasks, eye tracking, visual association tests and depth interviews, The Big Fixture gives you the robustness of quant with the depth of qual.

On top of a realistic, biometrically-tracked shelf test, iAssociate – our new visual association app – gives you a nuanced understanding of the brand personality communicated by a design.

If you’ve got a challenge that we can help you with, we’d love to hear from you.
