The challenge — No direct contact with end-customers

Even though FMCG products reach many consumers on a daily basis because the distribution usually goes through retailers, the producers themselves have no easy & quick way to engage directly with their end-customers.

Current practices — ad hoc large market research

Currently market research studies are expensive, slow & done predominantly with data from paid panelists, not your actual real end-customers.

Innovation opportunity

Consumers today expect something back. The time of one way research (ask for an answer) is behind us. Today’s consumers want to interact, are willing to help in a way that is more equal, more on a conversation level. Proven and inspired by social media.
