    Brand Switching Studies

    Brand switching studies identify the sources of change in a product's sale over time.

    Brand switching studies can answer the following questions:

  • For what products do consumers switch brands often?
  • Did your sales increase result from consumers switching from other brands, or did your existing customers just buy more?

    Three sources of sales volume change are:

  • Consumers switching to / from another product
  • Changes in consumption within the overall category
  • Movement of buyers into and out of the category

    Customer / Employee Satisfaction Surveys
