REASONABLE PRICE

What is an acceptable price range for your product?

When you’re uncertain on the pricing, use proven pricing research principles (optimized Van Westendorp) to get clear guidance on what’s a reasonable price for consumers.

  • Understand the acceptable price range for your pricing strategy
  • Are people are willing to pay a premium for your product?

PRICE PERCEPTION

Understand how your proposed price affects purchase intent

When you have a price in mind already, confirm how acceptable it is to target buyers and what is its impact on purchase likelihood.

  • Compare vs norms of your category and audience
  • How does your price affect key concept metrics like distinctiveness & advantage?

HOW CAN ZAPPI INNOVATION SYSTEM HELP ME TO BE MORE AGILE?

With Zappi's agile research platform you can iterate your innovations and improve your stimuli based on rich consumer feedback — quickly & affordably — and you can check in with consumers as often as you like. We cover the whole innovation development journey with solutions from early to late stage.

We're also not content with the status quo. What worked yesterday may not work today. We’re always innovating to move with you. Our tech, solutions, quality and people will never stop improving.

WHY SHOULD I TRUST ZAPPI'S INNOVATION SYSTEM?

Our innovation research is designed to reflect real-world consumer behavior, leading to higher accuracy of responses. We anchor consumers in the context of the decision and reflect how they encounter new items in the marketplace (visuals first, streamlined messaging).

Zappi Innovation System has been developed by academic & commercial researchers with behavioral specialists and in collaboration with some of the world's most progressive innovators like PepsiCo, McDonald's, Reckitt, Colgate-Palmolive & Vodafone. It's not just an innovation test, it's a system that fuels design thinking and consumer empathy.

We're trusted by more than 300 customers and helped improve over 95,000 innovation ideas.

CAN I USE THE INNOVATION SYSTEM FOR PRODUCT RENOVATION & LOCALIZATION?

Yes! Our concept testing, packaging and pricing solutions have you covered no matter what. For example:

  • If you're running a full innovation development cycle starting with front-end idea development,
  • or you're looking to optimize an existing product,
  • or check product-market fit of a product from your global portfolio and localize to your market.

We've got your innovation development research needs sorted.

WHAT METRICS DOES ZAPPI INNOVATION SYSTEM USE?

At Zappi we have a range of metrics used across our innovation system — all designed to help brands maximize the growth potential from their innovation investments. While the metrics vary based on stage of development and stimuli, there are four groups:

  • Innovation potential predictors: Our proven framework of Trial Potential and Breakthrough Potential helps you assess the overall concept potential. Learn more.
  • Drivers of growth: Incrementality metrics and consumption dynamics. They help you explore different routes to incremental growth and ensure you minimize cannibalization of your portfolio.
  • Diagnostics: Open-ended responses, heatmaps, and metrics such as emotional response, relevance, brand fit, believability, clarity. They help you optimize your stimuli for success.
  • Custom metrics: You can add custom questions to any survey. You can also easily custom the reporting output too and choose if you want to look at means, top/bottom boxes etc.

WHO IS THE INNOVATION SYSTEM DESIGNED FOR?

Industries such as:

Consumer packaged goods (CPG, FMCG, SMCG) , Quick service restaurants (QSR), Telecommunications, Consumer Finance, Social Media, Software, Apps & eCommerce
