  1. Which segmentation variable divides a market based on lifestyle, values, and personality traits?

    Answer: Psychographic segmentation

    Psychographic segmentation groups consumers by psychological characteristics such as lifestyle, values, attitudes, and personality.

  2. A marketing officer uses regression analysis on sales data and finds an R² of 0.85. This means:

    Answer: 85% of the variance in sales is explained by the model's variables

    R² (coefficient of determination) indicates the proportion of variance in the dependent variable explained by the independent variables — 0.85 means 85% of sales variance is accounted for.

  3. The 'Voice of the Customer' (VoC) program is primarily designed to:

    Answer: Systematically capture customer needs, expectations, and feedback to inform strategy

    VoC programs systematically collect and analyze customer feedback across touchpoints to translate customer needs into actionable business and product decisions.

  4. A marketing officer is comparing performance across two time periods but the underlying market size grew significantly. Which adjustment is MOST important?

    Answer: Convert metrics to index numbers or market share percentages

    Normalizing data to index numbers or share metrics removes the distortion from market growth, enabling true performance comparison across different market size conditions.

  5. Which research approach involves researchers immersing themselves in a customer's environment to observe natural behavior?

    Answer: Ethnographic research

    Ethnographic research involves observing consumers in their natural setting to uncover unarticulated needs and real-world behaviors that surveys often miss.

  6. Share of Voice (SOV) is calculated as:

    Answer: Your brand's ad spend divided by total category ad spend

    SOV = Brand Ad Spend ÷ Total Category Ad Spend × 100; it measures your brand's advertising presence relative to the entire competitive category.

  7. A marketing officer runs a multivariate test on a landing page with 3 variables, each having 2 variants. How many combinations must be tested for a full factorial design?

    Answer: 8

    A full factorial design tests every combination: 2³ = 8 combinations when each of 3 variables has 2 variants.
