PC Zapper invites consumers to office

Video portal PC Zapper invites consumers to her office for a yearly feedback session. On a Wednesday night consumers are coming to tell PC Zapper how to do better. For participating they receive a gift certificate of 25 euros, their travel expenses are reimbursed, and they get free pizza and soft drinks (pz, Dutch). Thus brands more and more involve consumers in the process. In a qualitative way, by having people send them ideas. In a quantitative way, by having people cast their votes. And creatively by involving people in sessions like this. In a next step, consumers will also help design the product. With that, the border between supplier and consumer slowly disappears. Brands are having their brand coming out, and PC Zapper shows us how to do this.

Way to go PC Zapper! This to me is the future. Why would you call people at their home, at an inconvenient time, to ask questions about brands they only vaguely know? I don’t even answer my home phone any more for this reason (and I finally registered at the national do-not-call register, so that should take care of the problem too). I like PC Zapper’s method for market research much better, and I’m sure they will get a lot more out of it!
