Methodology: Quantitative

Quantitative Design

Number of Interviews: 3000

Interview Length: 20 minutes

Statistical Analysis:

· Multivariate cluster-based segmentation, using geographical regions, attitudes and need states will serve as the basis of the segmentation.

· Cluster analysis is the use of mathematical models to identify groups whereby consumers in the same group (called a cluster) are more similar to each other than to those in other groups. These homogeneous groups are known as consumer segments.

Design Rationale:

We will be talking to a very large, diverse sample that represents the core of middle America. Through the large sample, we will be able to cluster segments of respondents together that most closely relate on their attitudes/beliefs/needs. We will then be able to provide detailed profiles of core segments of middle Americans as well as side-by-side views on how they are similar/different from one another and from Non-Middle Americans. Insights about each segment will enable recommendations on the best means of reaching these consumers and underlying messages to try to tap into or avoid, as well as any product development needs that are under-served among these groups.

Quantitative Research Target
