What To Expect From
Message Testing
Gap Spotting
We’ll identify the disconnects between what your product does and what your customers think it does. You’ll learn how to evolve your messaging to bridge dissonance gaps and begin convincing customers that you’re the right product for them.
Tone & Voice Analysis
It’s not just what you say but how you say it. That’s why our message research frequently includes assessing tone and voice resonance. It gives you fuller insights into how to package your messaging so that it strikes the right chord.
Messaging Red Flags
Authenticity sells, which is why you need to stay away from buzzwords and other messages that ring false with customers. Our message testing explores these no-go message areas so you know what to avoid to prevent customer alienation.
When Is It Time To Perform
