    Consumer Behavior & Insights Externship with Health-Ade

    The same shopper sees 3 bottles in the grocery store: Health-Ade. Bolthouse Farms. Evolution Fresh. Different days, completely different purchases. All are owned by the same company, and their own purchase data can't explain what actually sends a shopper toward kombucha, cold-pressed juice, or a protein smoothie instead of one of the others. They want you to help figure it out: design and run a real survey, benchmark the category's biggest competitors, and build the kind of consulting-style case real firms use to brief executives. If you want to show future hiring managers you understand how to find out what their customer is ACTUALLY thinking, then these 6 weeks are for you.

Overview

The externship analyzed shopper choices across three beverage brands owned by the same company, combining a custom survey with competitive benchmarking and synthesis into a consulting-style deliverable. The work designed and fielded a survey, compared category competitors, and packaged findings and recommendations into an executive-facing case brief.

What I've accomplished

I ran the research and analysis end-to-end: I designed and deployed a consumer survey, mapped competitor positioning, and compiled the results into a concise case brief aimed at executive review.
