Price and promotion strategy FAQs
What is the role of price in brand switching behavior?
Price is a significant factor in brand switching, particularly in competitive markets. YouGov’s solutions will show you when a price change results in competitive switching versus shifting volume within a brand portfolio or store.
How do you know the impact of a price change on your or your competitor’s performance?
YouGov’s services reveal the quantifiable volume impact of price changes – for your brand and your competitors – by monitoring real shopper responses and identifying shifts in market share, spend, penetration, and loyalty.
To what extent are shoppers willing to pay inflation increases, and does inflation change buying behavior?
This is a really important question. YouGov’s intelligence shows how and why shoppers respond to pricing increases based on inflation and adapt by buying less, downtrading, or switching brands, with variations among different shopper groups.
How do I learn which promotions are most effective?
Get the inside track with a wide range of promotional mechanisms – from price cuts and multi-buys to loyalty-based offers. YouGov’s solutions identify what promotion tactics drive the strongest results, categorized by target group, category, retailer, and beyond.
Do promotions change shopper buying behavior?
Research with YouGov helps you determine whether your promotions are impacting customer buying behavior. You’ll better understand whether they generate incremental sales, attract new buyers, or simply shift purchasing timing.
How do I learn if my promotional strategy is driving trial, loyalty, or just short-term volume?
YouGov’s pricing research differentiates between short-term volume boosts and long-term gains, showing whether promotions lead to sustained buying and loyalty or primarily attract deal seekers without lasting value.
What is the added value of my measuring my promotions?
Measuring your promotions with YouGov helps you focus your promotional budget on tactics that really move the needle for your business. Offers are assessed for profitability by considering uplift, base erosion, and shopper response, ensuring they generate real value rather than just volume.
