Objectives

In the ever-evolving alcohol industry, beer companies constantly seek opportunities to reinvent their products and cater to diverse consumer tastes. Our client, one of the largest beer producers globally, aimed to gain a deeper understanding of the quality traits that drive sales for their brand. They recognized the importance of consumer preferences and sought to align their marketing efforts and product positioning accordingly.

Solution

RILA’s team embarked on a research study to provide our client with valuable insights into consumer sentiments and preferences surrounding beer products. Our focus was primarily on the United States market, where we examined how people discussed our client's brand, competitors, and beers in general on social media platforms.

To conduct a comprehensive analysis, we built detailed comparisons between different types of beers and delved into discussions related to specific traits and consumer personas. Our expert researchers meticulously analyzed the ways people talked about the qualities associated with each beer type and the specific brand associations that influence consumer perceptions.

Outcome

The research study conducted by RILA’s team yielded valuable outcomes for our client. By gaining a deeper understanding of consumer sentiments and preferences related to beer products, our client was empowered to refine their marketing strategies and enhance their product positioning.

The insights we provided enabled our client to identify specific beer attributes that resonated with their target audience and drove sales. Additionally, the analysis shed light on the brand associations that impacted consumer perceptions, enabling our client to leverage their brand strengths and address any potential weaknesses.

Armed with these actionable insights, our client was able to make informed decisions regarding product development, marketing campaigns, and brand messaging. By leveraging social media data and consumer sentiments, our client successfully reinvented their products to align with evolving consumer preferences and strengthen their position in the competitive beer market.
