🤠 Validate Product Concepts

This is typically used in concept testing. In concept testing, you present users with a new concept by showing them a descriptive paragraph, prototype, wireframe, video, etc. that illustrates the concept. The user is then asked to rate the concept on certain measures. Over time, you will have a benchmark of past scores (e.g. appeal may average around 55%). When you run a new concept test, you gauge how well the current concept scores against the benchmark (e.g. the new concept got 67% appeal, which is better than benchmark of 55%) NOTE: This is a Likert Scale. Learn more about Likert Scales and how to use them in surveys
. The scales in the responses are just examples and need to be adjusted based on your research needs.
