Market and Consumer Research

A rapidly changing business landscape, consolidation, and growth in non-traditional consumers are just a few of today’s challenges. For more than 30 years, Southwick Associates has helped outdoor companies reduce decision-making risks by explaining:

Market Size and Composition

  • What is the size of my market?
  • What is my market share? My competitors’ shares?
  • What are the retail channels and price points within my market?
  • How are customers using my products?

Consumer / Market Segmentation

  • What are the unique groups, or personas, comprising my market?
  • What are their purchasing motivations, attitudes and usage habits?

Message Testing

  • Which messages resonate best with my customers, and which advertising mediums capture their attention?

Innovation / Product Development

  • What features are customers looking for in my product or service?
  • What is the optimal set of features customers want? What will they pay?

Brand Awareness / Brand Perception

  • How do consumers perceive my brand – and my competitors’ brands?
  • How much more is my brand worth to the consumer than my competitors’ brands?

Customer Satisfaction

  • How satisfied are my customers with my products and services?
  • What do I need to improve?

GIS Location and Lifestyle Mapping

  • Where are my target customers clustered?
  • What are the best locations for a new store or promotions?
