2. Just a brief introduction
I am not an English spoken native. I think, feel and get in love in
Spanish! So, this is my best attempt to communicate in another
language.
I prepare this deck because I consider myself a devoted and passionate
consumer insights researcher. I have been working on the market
research field for about 13 years, and recently in the consumer insights
area (as Kraft Foods Consumer Insights Manager for Perú and Western
Andean Region).
Nowadays I am working as an independent consultant and researcher
and found very interesting to share and promote consumer insights
vision thorough psychology, marketing, advertising and professional
community.
I truly believe in insights. I think that a consumer centered organization
fueled by consumer insights is the best solution for marketing and
business success. Do you agree?

5. Consumer Insights
Examples of Dyed Hair
Inspirational Insight
– Define why the consumer uses the specific product
– “Dye my hair makes me break with routine, modernize and
changequot;
Emotional Insight
– Comments that reflect how consumers feel when using a product
– quot;The truth is that when I dye my hair I changed my way of being. I'm more
flirtatious and seductive, I conquered my husband!quot;
Intensity Insight
– Determines the degree of satisfaction with the product / brand promise
– quot;The last time I had redhead was magical…my husband started to stare at
me ... it's as if he had lived in a dark cave and the color red that I put
myself served as a torch lit. quot;

I reviewed lot of information in the business setting. Most of the
definitions you will find here are from market research
perspective (LATAM and international) but others are derived
from consumer goods industry.
Despite the fact there are some differences in these definitions,
we can find important communalities: perspective, intution,
deep psychological understanding, consumer immersion,
unrevealed emotions, beliefs and behaviors and actionable
insights.
The most important marketing gurus like Kotler and recently
Mohanbir Sawhney express a conviction that “consumer
insights” is the new paradigm on Marketing Sciences.

Specific, timely, relevant, critical and actionable
Insights work similar to headlights; they illuminate the path
ahead to reduce the risk of potential hazards.
The more visibility I have, the faster I can go.
With increased insights I will be able to make faster decisions
while navigating my business.
Insights let companies plan effectively, and facilitate business
decisions that help grow profit, volume, and share.
True insights address not only the “what” of business
performance, but also “why” it’s performing the way it is, and
“how” one might influence that performance.
To provide real value, an insight must reflect five key elements:
Specific, Timely, Relevant, Critical and Actionable

34. Consumer Insights: Latent & unconscious need
“Una información que revela algo nuevo, que descubre algo
oculto respecto a las marcas y consumidores”
“Un tipo de descubrimiento, que nace de aplicar metodologías
específicas e intuición”.
“La intuición, en este juego, tiene que ver con la idea de que no
basta con el pensamiento racional, lineal, para descubrir algo
nuevo, sino que se requiere escuchar al cuerpo, sus
sensaciones y emociones, en busca de un sentido más
profundo”.
“El descubrimiento de un insight equiere una mentalidad
diferente, quot;out of the boxquot;, es decir, un modo de pensar y hacer
las cosas no convencional”.
“Un insight para ser realmente accionable requiere del
compromiso de la organización”

35. Consumer Insights: Subjetive & personal
content about a brand and its consumer
“En el ámbito publicitario designa cualquier verdad sobre el
consumidor cuya inclusión en un mensaje publicitario hace que éste
gane en notoriedad, veracidad, relevancia y persuasión a ojos de dicho
consumidor”.
Leo Burnett:
“Los insights del consumidor son las percepciones, imágenes,
experiencias y verdades subjetivas que el consumidor tiene
asociadas con un tipo de producto, con una marca en concreto o
con su situación de consumo”.
“Son una mezcla de componentes racionales e inconscientes,
reales e imaginados, vividos y proyectados, que suelen estar
fuertemente enraizados en los componentes afectivos del
consumidor”.

36. Consumer Insights:
An emotional marketing perspective
“La seducción y las emociones están estrechamente ligadas a
la hora de crear productos nuevos con éxito.
…de hecho, asociamos cosméticos con salud y belleza;
vacaciones con libertad y evasión, y tecnología con la
capacidad de comunicación.
…el campo de exploración de los sentimientos de los públicos
supone un largo viaje, cuyo fin no es otro que lograr una
conexión afectiva que está en consonancia con los tiempos que
vivimos y que persigue consolidar relaciones duraderas”.

37. Consumer Insights: Deep psychological content
“Cuando se habla de proyecciones, se hace referencia a los
aspectos psicológicos latentes que se desean activar a través
de los mensajes…
…se trata de despertar los sentimientos del consumidor con un
producto o marca, por lo que es básico conocer qué elementos
internos se pueden estimular para lograr una actitud adecuada
que se traslade a la marca.
…para encontrar insights debemos conocer cómo se relaciona
el consumidor con el producto, qué le ofrece, cuándo y para qué
lo utiliza, etc. Por lo tanto, es fundamental conocer ampliamente
a nuestro público objetivo para saber por qué compra, por lo
que son fundamentales las herramientas de investigación”.

Debe surgir de una investigación enfocada en el poder, no tanto en el
saber.
Necesita ser útil y accionable: No debe ser un conocimiento superficial,
sino intenso. Y debe estar cimentado en el entendimiento.
No todos los hallazgos descubiertos poseen las suficientes cualidades
para ser un insight; lo son: Si te genera una oportunidad de negocio, si
tiene elementos para fortalecer o reposicionar tu marca, si puedes
hacer una comunicación más persuasiva (fondo y forma).

50. Consumer Insights:
Its not deductive research, is inductive!
“Escuchar la voz del cliente” no es suficiente para

de consumo: la “investigación inductiva” que se
diseñó para generar insights.
