What is a Post Launch Evaluator?

A Post Launch Evaluator is a type of market research used to identify areas for improvement for existing concepts.

The research always takes place in a real-life testing environment, namely on the shop floor or at the consumer's home.

Based on your specific issue, we create a customized research plan. This can be both qualitative and quantitative in nature.

Consumer behavior insights

To provide compelling reasoning for retailers.

  • Present an adapted design to consumers.
  • Test if your product performs better at a different price.
  • Have consumers test your product at home and measure the user experience.
  • Test at which price point consumers switch to your product or the competitors.

1. Setup & methodology

If your concept is not performing as expected, it is important to take action quickly. Our team is flexible and adapts to your schedule.

A Post Launch Evaluator takes place on the shop floor. Bamboo Brands has its own network of over 360 outlets throughout Europe. Therefore, this type of research is feasible in any European country and with any retail format.
Field research and monitoring

3. Fieldwork and monitoring

A Post Launch Evaluator can be both qualitative and quantitative in nature. Choose from a Discovery Assessment (qualitative), an In-Home User Assessment (qualitative), or a Validation Assessment (quantitative). Of course, you can combine multiple methods in one research project.

4. Analysis and reporting

After collecting sufficient qualitative and/or quantitative insights, the Research Expert starts the analysis. The result: understanding the causes of disappointing rotations and receiving concrete action points to optimize your concept in a timely manner.

5. Validation & advice

During a presentation, we provide an interpretation of the results. Additionally, you will receive advisory points to optimize your concept. We understand the challenges you face and will assist you in taking quick next steps.

"I knew that you conducted research in a different way than usual. That's also one of the reasons I started a conversation with you. In the beginning, I had doubts about whether enough qualitative insights were collected during the fieldwork, but fortunately, you managed to dispel these doubts and ultimately provided me with sufficient qualitative insights."

"The goal of the research was to get a clear picture of consumer response to the concept, and that succeeded! Moreover, the results are practically applicable. We have already taken internal steps to further optimize the concept based on these insights."

''We got useful insights into the pricing and base rotation of our innovations.

What makes it even more valuable, is that we also got insight into our performance versus the competitors’ performance.

Best of all, one of our innovations will soon appear on the shelf!''
