Specialist Areas

Predictive modeling - Choice Modeling

Our customer decision modeling solutions have been developed by our team of senior consultants, analysts, mathematicians and programmers to provide you with specialist cutting-edge business tools.

One of our specialty modelling areas is the application of Strategic Choice Model Analysis, used to answer almost all of the business and marketing issues around…

  • predicting demand for a new product under alternative pricing strategies
  • predicting demand of current services with new features
  • analysing the impact of a merger, or the consequence of new branding of your product
  • analysing the impact of a competitor’s move on your product line

We empower product and marketing managers with a tool that predicts market & volume share, to solve these sorts of  marketing issues:

  • how should we be positioned and what key market drivers will take us there?
  • will a brand extension or new brand be successful? And how do we optimise its appeal to maximise profit?
  • who are our competitors and what benefits are we competing on?
  • what market segments are there? And what can we offer them to maximise market share and profits?

What makes us different?

The people and our experience …
It is often the case that agencies offer Choice Modeling because bespoke software is readily available to purchase. As a consequence the consultants have limited knowledge of the methodology, as do the people behind the analysis, who often a very limited understanding of the inner workings of the modeling technique since they bought a ‘black-box’.  We are different.

Our people have true expertise in Choice Modeling. 

  • Our analysts have together over 17 years experience, consulting to multinational companies around the world. 
  • All our consultants are trained in this area until they pass competency standards that allow them to consult to businesses like yours. 
  • We have our own specialist programming department dedicated to the ongoing development of this product

The product…
