[All L4M2 Questions]

A food manufacturer wants to predict the pricing point for a new and innovative health drink. Which method of market research would be beneficial to receive the most accurate information?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

Consumer data provides specific, measurable insights into purchasing behavior, preferences, and willingness to pay. This is the most accurate method for setting a pricing strategy, as it uses real-world data rather than subjective opinions or generic trends. Reference: CIPS Level 4, Market Research Techniques.

I dunno, maybe they should just put the drink in a blender and see how much people are willing to pay for a smoothie. That's market research, right?

Focus groups? More like confusion groups, am I right? Ha! But seriously, you gotta go with the data on this one.

Internet searches? Come on, that's just gonna tell you what people are googling, not what they're actually willing to spend money on.

How about sales trends? That'll show you what's working in the market already. Plus, it's data you can really sink your teeth into.
