In early-stage new product development (NPD) research, uncovering both rational and emotional needs are vital. Both insights are instrumental to accurately size the unmet need or opportunity for innovations.
While traditional qual techniques can be used to uncover emotions, the results can’t easily be scaled. Alternatively, quant research can deliver stated emotions, but they lack the depth of emotions. With quant techniques, we rely too heavily on ‘what’ people tell us and we often see an overstated interest in innovations.
To tackle this challenge, SKIM has innovated a new hybrid approach for early-stage NPD research. By using a voice analytics tool, we can analyze ‘how’ people communicate their needs, attitudes and interest, to better uncover implicit emotions for more effective innovation strategies.
We recently teamed up with Johnson & Johnson to put this new research technique to the test to mine emotions.
“We are constantly investigating ways of gathering deep human understanding using both explicit and implicit tools.”
– Sofia Jorman, Consumer Science Manager, Global R&D operations, Johnson & Johnson Consumer Division SelfCare
Focusing on the topic of stress, we set out measure the consumer appetite for mainstream anti-stress digital innovations. With stress and anxiety becoming a top human resources challenge, Johnson & Johnson’s SelfCare division was particularly interested in attitudes around health and wellbeing.
Watch this webinar to learn how rational reasoning and emotions play a role in decision-making and how voice analytics can be leveraged for richer NPD insights.
