Prayag’s Solution

Prayag helped the company understand the actual usage and TV watching behavior of the target audience, their appreciation of technology, and demands from the TV watching experience. For this, Prayag’s research team conducted deep dive interviews across major Indian cities and also interacted with retailers in the same cities. We analyzed how the products were explained to prospective buyers to understand how consumers were educated about the product at the time of purchase, and later at the time of usage.

During the consumer interviews, Prayag’s researchers got a firsthand view of how people interacted with their televisions. In addition, the team conducted focus groups with teenagers after zeroing in on that demographic as influencers in a household for television purchase. We also studied another subset - technology savvy individuals - to understand how that segment used technology and television, and what their expectations would be from a smart TV.

After completing the interviews, Prayag’s team compared tech vs. non tech savvy participants’ usage and based on the findings, suggested the following to make the company’s product sought after:

• Apps to develop on the company’s existing platform• Additional features that would increase its appeal to consumers

Benefits
