Journey Mapping

Have consumers show you their journey through a decision, product use or consumption journey.

How the process works

    • Identify the journey to investigate in the study
    • Work with our Research Managers to develop a research protocol to explore different points along the journey continuum
    • Recruit key audience segments (e.g. Loyalists, Casuals, Lapsed)
    • Use mindswarms remote video capture to have participants provide insight on their journey, touching on rational or emotional touchpoints
    • Synthesize findings into Journey Mapping report

Methods used

    • Beginning, middle and end check-ins
    • Physical environmental reporting (e.g. drive thru menu ordering experience)
    • Diaries (e.g. report on the changing relationship with music having a smart speaker in the home)
    • Micro moments (e.g. have consumers report when a key event occurs, like in our work with Think with Google)

Timing and cost

    • Journey Mapping projects can take from one to four weeks or more to complete, depending on study complexity
    • Typical projects involve 15-30 participants
    • Fees including screener development, study management, recruiting, hand-selecting the best candidates, QA of videos, respondent incentives, and transcripts @$500/person for US respondents, and $1,000/person for international markets (additional incentives may be required if travel or retail visits are required)
    • Fees for optional analysis start at $7,500 for a report on a 15 person study, and $12,500 for a 30 person study
    • Fees for optional edited video start at $5,000 for a 90-120 second highlight reel with title cards and music (B roll and motion graphics are extra)
    • For projects where shopping missions or travel outside of the home is required, additional incentives may be required

Deliverable

Example: 20 participants each answer 10 questions using the video on their smartphone or laptop. That produces 200 x 1 minute video clips and corresponding transcripts (both Google Speech, and a parallel service that includes a human’s eyes to capture important nuances).

All delivered via a cloud-based link that is shareable, and assets that can be downloaded (videos in MP4 format) to be used to bring the insights to life for presentations, and highly engage audiences.
