Its claimed we live in a post-truth age. Anyone with truth to convey, needs more than ever to do so in a way which resonates & engages. Medieval jesters & comedians alike have been prized for this ability: we must learn from these visionaries...
This paper outlines the power of methodological integration as a journey to new findings - allowing business inquiries to be properly addressed.

This paper outlines the power of methodological integration as a journey to new findings - allowing business inquiries to be properly addressed.

Dr. Meiselman has worked in sensory and consumer research for many decades, and has seen this field change dramatically from a focus on unbranded, unpackaged products to a wide spectrum including the product, the person consuming that product, and the environment in which the product is consumed. Where is sensory and consumer research now, and where is it heading? Dr. Meiselman will describe the present and predict the future on issues including Health and Wellness, Moving into the Real World, Trained and Consumer Panels, Number of People in Samples, Measures Beyond Liking, Ritual and Habit, and Cross Cultural Measurement Issues. If you knew sensory research 20 years ago, you won't recognise the new sensory and consumer research today.
ESIKA, the leading brand in DS (Direct Selling) in several countries in LA and the largest of Belcorp´s brands, has been facing a more aggressive competitive environment in the past two years due to: 1) a proliferation of beauty brands in DS, and 2) the fast expansion of Retail in LA with a better shopping experience. In this context, Belcorp needs ESIKA to win amongst their consumers through a differentiated and relevant value proposition, and a more enticing buying and user experience. Research companies offered partial solutions to monitor performance of each of the catalog roles, but never as a whole. INVERA established the goal of developing a methodology to achieve this integrated vision requested by Belcorp: to understand how an entire catalog worked from the more functional-rational side to the more emotional side with visibility and emotional indicators. From this challenge, Detector was developed to help Belcorp monitor key variables which provide a holistic understanding of the catalog performance.
