    Jobs to be Done as a Framework for Customer Insights

    In this episode, we explore the Jobs to be Done (JTBD) framework, a model embraced by many companies, including leading CPG brands, financial services, tech companies, and more. Your host, Kathryn Korostoff, gives you a brief overview of what JTBD is and how market researchers can use it to move beyond a superficial understanding of customer needs. Whether it's for physical products or services, understanding the real motivations behind purchases and brand choices is crucial. In professional market research, we know that customer decision-making is seldom rational and often more complex than it appears. While there are various frameworks we can use to gain deeper customer insights, JTBD is a useful framework for identifying innovation, differentiation, and segmentation opportunities. What is the customer's ultimate aspiration for using this product or service? What are they trying to accomplish? In this episode, examples illustrate the model's potential, using examples from cars, refrigerators, and coffee makers.

    Join host Kathryn Korostoff and special guest Dan Braker, President of Breakthrough Research, for a deep dive into the power of authenticity in shaping consumer decisions and brand loyalty. This episode explores the critical role authenticity plays in building lasting connections between brands and their customers.

Dan introduces Breakthrough Research's innovative approach to measuring brand authenticity, offering new perspectives on evaluating its impact.

Brands (and people) need to be authentic in order to form long-lasting connections with their customers.

    Finding Authentic B2B Online Sample with Sharekh Shaikh

    As professional market researchers, one of our biggest challenges is access to quality sample. We have all had the experience of having to toss out 10% or even 20% or more of research respondents because they were likely bots, fakes, or otherwise low-quality responses. While online sample is problematic for both B2B and B2C studies, the "solutions" may be different. In this episode, our experts tackle the topic of B2B: how can we efficiently recruit authentic, qualified participants for B2B research? Join Kathryn Korostoff and Sharekh Shaikh, CEO of CleverX, as they discuss how to optimize B2B recruiting for both qualitative and survey research projects. Sharekh has a unique POV on this topic—one that will surely challenge current assumptions about how to get access to high-quality, authentic B2B respondents! At 05:10, Sharekh references ESOMAR research regarding the percentage of fraudulent online survey responses, so we wanted to share the source of that statistic: Technology’s role in preventing fraud. CleverX is an audience discovery platform for market and product research teams, specializing in B2B sample.
