What Insights We Delivered
The Insights Exchange Approach
Insight Exchange initiated a quantitative approach through a 12-minute online survey, with a sample of 1500 parents of children aged 2-8. The aim of the survey was to gain insight into purchase dynamics such as triggers, influences, and barriers.
Purchase intent and image associations were also a key factor that we aimed to investigate as well as understanding consumers to focus marketing efforts including demographics, attitudes, behaviours, location, needs, media channels and perceptions of creativity.
