Exciting news! I had the honor of being featured in Business Insider latest article, which delves deep into the discussion of Provoke Insights's research study on consumer spending and the perceptions of dynamic pricing. In the current inflationary environment, retailers consider dynamic pricing a potential solution to boost revenues. However, with consumers feeling the pinch of inflation, they are becoming increasingly budget-conscious. The addition of dynamic pricing by traditional retailers could further frustrate consumers.  Thank you Emily Stewart for the great write up! I would love to hear your thoughts on this important topic - how do you think consumers will respond to dynamic pricing amidst already challenging financial circumstances? Let's start a conversation in the comments below! #marketresearch #dynamicpricing #consumerspending #insights https://lnkd.in/ggE2uwmA

Have you ever experienced a situation where you found a great deal on an item, only to come back later and find the price has increased? Imagine walking into Walmart on a quiet Tuesday morning, spotting the perfect shirt for $20, and then returning on Saturday to find it priced at $25. What is happening here? This is just a hypothetical, but Walmart is considering moving towards a dynamic pricing model. I am very excited to share my thoughts with Fast Company. I'd love to hear your thoughts on dynamic pricing and how you think consumers would react to it. Check out the article and join the conversation! Thank you, Sam Becker, for your insightful writeup. https://lnkd.in/ebWnk3iu #dynamicpricing #trends #research

Exciting news! Path to Purchase Institute just published my latest article on Impulse Shopping. At Provoke Insights, we surveyed 1,500 individuals across the US to uncover who's most prone to impulse buying and which industries are most susceptible to impulse shopping.

Orange is commonly seen as a symbol of strength and endurance, and its tone is light-hearted and not too serious. These qualities were especially important to me when I established Provoke Insights eleven years ago. Therefore, it was very fitting for our company to sponsor the orange station at an NJ color run. It was a fun weekend to give back to the community while also supporting Provoke Insight's relationship with the color orange. #marketresearch #community #orange

We have many newer start-up companies, from technology to food to clothing lines, that reach out to us regarding research. Often, the obstacle is not competing with other research vendors but having our clients sell the work to leadership. The blog entry below provides critical information about the importance of research and why fast-growing shouldn't ignore this critical step. Are you a fast-growing company?

A lot of prospects and clients ask me about bots. I would be lying to you if I said I never saw them. However, I am proud that Provoke Insights is very proactive at combating them to ensure that our clients have the best data possible.
