Chicago, Aug. 30, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Circana®, formerly IRI and The NPD Group, today announced the launch of Fast Feedback Guided Surveys, Circana’s first guided survey solution. Available now, the new offering integrates Circana’s robust survey capabilities and Receipt Panel data along with Zappi’s world-class consumer insights platform to deliver a turnkey solution tailored for small to midsize CPG brands.
With a quick-start, guided-setup process and automated analysis and benchmarks, Fast Feedback Guided Surveys enable clients to easily leverage insights from verified omnichannel buyers to answer business questions in seven days or fewer.

Four preconfigured surveys will be available at launch, including New Trier, Lost Buyer, Brand Perception, and Path-to-Purchase. Additional surveys are currently in development and will be released regularly.
