What the Industry said
‘’Howard Moskowitz is not only brilliant and creative, he has spent his career disseminating his ideas. Well-known in academic circles since the 1970s, conjoint analysis is a mathematical tool for understanding the relative importance of particular attributes or clusters of variables upon some kind of decision or choice. This approach is used nowadays to understand pricing parameters, to create market segmentation schemes, to determine the marketing ROI of various combinations of promotional activities and for other applications important to corporate marketers. Moskowitz has gone farther than others in fashioning and extending this tool so that it may stimulate new product concepts as well as ideas for line and brand extensions.’’
