Winning Customer Insights

This event is over.

Genuine consumer Insights go well beyond the quantitative research available to all our competitors and the often superficial findings of qualitative research and focus groups. Therefore, real Insights provide Brands with a unique advantage in an increasingly competitive marketplace.

However, Insights are often poorly understood, inaccurately identified, and frequently confused with Customer Needs, Requirements, and/or Expectations. In fact, "faux" Insights are far more evident in Marketing Plans than actual Customer Insights. This Webinar focuses on the identification of actual Customer Insights and their application in the development of new Products, Services, and/or Marketing Communications. Further, it outlines an approach for both assessing the value of existing Customer Insights and developing a program for mining future Insights.
