Due to a significant gap between claimed and actual purchase intent, the client approached SG Analytics for support in understanding the underlying situation. The client further required an assessment of the market potential for personal petroleum-electric hybrid vehicles in France, Germany, and Italy.

SOLUTION

Employing a team of five primary research analysts, two data analysts and two quality analysts headed by a dedicated Project Manager, SG Analytics identified the customer requirements and the customer motivation points using the following approach:

  • SG Analytics' team ensured that respondents are representative of the desired target population by appropriate targeting and customer funneling.
  • The team established demographic breaks and created quotas of respondents that meet specific criteria. The team distributed and routed the survey traffic to achieve these quotas.
