Consumer insights refer to the trends in products and services, based on human (or, consumer) behavior. When working in a consumer-based industry such as meat production, you are at the mercy of trends, preferred tastes, and overall customer preferences. Consumer insights give you the insight needed to make decisions such as where to take your company's marketing, what to launch next, or how to recover from a wrong product decision. Critical insights could include what is trending, what customers are complaining about, what is receiving praise, product momentum, and consumer churn rate.

"It would be essential for Tyson Foods to understand what customers are verbally requesting. One great way to do this is to have alerts and hashtags set up for your company brand. When people @ your company, what are they saying? It's important to take a look at what these consumers are suggesting and pivot from there. For instance, if consumers are complaining about excessive packaging, this shows you that it's time to take a look at introducing more eco-friendly packaging. Could you share with me the most helpful approach to gaining consumer insight here at Tyson Foods?"

"My background in marketing applies to many industries and sectors. When it comes to critical consumer insights into the food industry, I will focus on discovering upcoming trends in flavors, convenience, and packaging. I will look at customer demographics such as age and gender, how and where they use our product the most. Lastly, another insight that I would pursue would be how they feel about alternative products. This information would help me to craft a stronger marketing strategy. It would also help a great deal in research and development efforts."
