Methodology
MaxDiff Analysis
Understanding what types of tradeoffs customers are willing to make helps you build better products. MaxDiff analysis (sometimes called Best-Worst Scaling) enables customers to prioritize product features, messages, benefits or claims. MaxDiff analysis leverages our innate ability to identify the best and worst from a list and provides a rank-ordered list of preferences.
MaxDiff analysis is particularly useful when you want to:
- Understand the priorities that customers have for product development
- See the most impactful messages and claims about a product that resonate with the audience
- Identify clusters of your market that have similar preferences and priorities
Outcomes Delivered
- View customer preferences in a prioritized, rank-order list
- Understand preference gaps and differentiation between features
- Conduct cluster analysis to pinpoint individuals with similar preferences and priorities
