Measure willingness to pay and price sensitivity.

How it works

What the study captures, and what your team gets back.

Sample interview probes

  • At what price would this product feel so cheap you'd question the quality?
  • At what price would you start to feel it's a bargain?
  • At what price does it start to feel expensive but still worth considering?
  • At what price would you walk away?

What you get

  • Optimal price point with sensitivity range
  • Acceptable price range (PSM model)
  • Verbatim drivers behind the perceived value
  • Segment-level differences (by income, channel, occasion)
