Introduction

In this section, we'll discuss how to use the choice simulator to answer some common strategic questions introduced earlier:

 

Given a current competitive environment, what product should I offer to maximize interest in my offering?

 

What is the relative price sensitivity of different brands?  If I raise my price by 10%, how will it affect my brand?

 

What portfolio of products can I offer to appeal to different market segments and maximize overall share?

 

For the examples in this section, we'll assume the following three attributes, measured using three levels each:

 

 Brand:        

 1        BrandA

 2        BrandB

 3        BrandC

 

 Style:        

 1        StyleA

 2        StyleB

 3        StyleC

 

 Price:        

 1        $100

 2        $150

 3        $200

 

The results reported in this section are fictitious and not based on any particular data set.
