much information. To create a perceptual map, we use 4 step strategy.
Conjoint Analysis simulates market value and puts numerical value on Attribute level. There 3 assumptions:
Products are just a bunch of attributes.
Products differ on an attribute level. If we change level product changes as well.
People have different preferences.
