Choice-Based Conjoint mimics a shopping experience, asking respondents to choose among varying products described by features and price, leading to a model that explains what drives buyer choices.
Prioritize your product development roadmap MaxDiff (best-worst scaling) research analysis technique not only reveals which features your customers care about the most, it quantifies their interest so you can make data-driven product decisions.
Using conjoint analysis, you can see where your product will succeed within the marketplace, positioning your product vis-à-vis competitors to increase revenues, profits, or market share.
MaxDiff (best-worst scaling) reveals which messages and advertisements resonate best with your customer bases.
Standard rating scales provide relatively imprecise and biased data compared to choice analytics such as MaxDiff and CBC. Respondents tend to straightline with ratings scales, leading to less information content. Scale use differences such as positivity bias (yea-saying) also make rating scale data weak for cross-cultural research and correlation analysis.
Choice questions yield more accurate and unbiased data because they ask respondents to choose among products or items being shown to them. Respondents cannot say that all products are equally desirable and there is no rating scale to lead to scale-use bias.
Conjoint analysis is a realistic questioning approach that mimics how buyers shop in the real world. We show respondents multiple products described by varying characteristics (often involving price) and observe their choices. When respondents have to make hard choices in the conjoint questionnaire (similar to how they face challenging tradeoffs in the real world), it shows us what they truly value.
Conjoint analysis data lead to powerful and intuitive what-if market simulators for predicting what buyers would do in future market scenarios.
MaxDiff (best-worst scaling) works much better than standard rating scales for prioritizing and quantifying the importance or preference for items on a list. MaxDiff places the list items into subsets of 4 or 5 and asks the respondent to choose which is the most important and least important for each subset.
MaxDiff asks the respondents to make simple best-worst prioritizations and in turn reveals the true order and magnitude.
