In a groundbreaking move, ITC, the renowned multinational conglomerate, is fine-tuning its consumer research practices by integrating Artificial Intelligence (AI). This shift is set to revolutionise how ITC analyses consumer behaviour, evaluates marketing strategies, and measures performance[1][3][5].
The adoption of AI promises to streamline research processes, replacing traditional, time-consuming methods with more efficient, data-powered processes that enable faster and more accurate decision-making. Key aspects of ITC’s AI-powered consumer research include advanced data analysis, natural language processing (NLP) and machine learning (ML), sentiment analysis, faster product development and strategy evaluation, performance measurement enhancement, and generative AI models[1][3].
Advanced Data Analysis: AI tools analyse large datasets, including public domain data and social media conversations, to identify emerging trends, consumer sentiments, and behavioural patterns. This helps in in-house category exploration and understanding customer preferences more deeply[1][3].
NLP and Machine Learning: ITC has developed a secure internal platform that harnesses NLP and ML technologies. This platform allows researchers to experiment in controlled environments while building impactful products tailored for client needs[1][3].
Sentiment Analysis: AI is applied to customer care interactions to assess consumer feedback and sentiment, providing real-time insights into consumer satisfaction and pain points[1][3].
Faster Product Development and Strategy Evaluation: By speeding up data processing and analysis, AI enables quicker testing of new concepts, packaging, and marketing strategies, making iterative improvements more agile and effective[1][3][5].
Performance Measurement Enhancement: AI streamlines monitoring of brand health, marketing spends, and retail data, improving the tracking of marketing success and ROI[1][3].
Generative AI Models: ITC is fine-tuning generative AI models with specific consumer data to create agile, tailored solutions that closely match consumer needs, enhancing product relevance and personalization[5].
This evolution represents a significant leap from traditional methods, introducing automation, scalability, and deeper analytical insights, which accelerate innovation and improve the quality of marketing decisions[1][3][5].
