Powering Up Marketing: Marketing Insights for CodeX's Indian Market Launch

As a marketing data analyst, I spearheaded the transformation of survey data into actionable insights that the marketing team can use to enhance brand awareness, market share, and product development for CodeX’s energy drink. My analysis focused on several key areas, including Demographic Insights, Competition Analysis, Consumer Analysis, and Marketing Channels.

Utilizing advanced AI tools such as decomposition trees and dynamic search bars, along with performance optimization techniques, I ensured that our reports provided smooth and scalable performance.

1. Demographic Insights:

• Gen Z vs Millennials: Gen Z showed a strong preference for online channels, with 2,666 responses favoring this medium. Millennials were more influenced by TV commercials, while print media and billboards had the least impact.
• Low Performing Cities: Kolkata, Ahmedabad, Jaipur, and Lucknow reported lower energy drink consumption. This could be due to less effective marketing strategies or lower brand penetration in these regions.
• Who Craves More: Approximately 6,000 men indicated a higher craving for energy drinks, likely due to higher activity levels or lifestyle demands. In contrast, 3,460 women and 507 non-binary respondents showed less craving, potentially due to different energy needs or preferences.
• City and Energy Drinks: Bangalore recorded the highest number of taste experiences, followed by Hyderabad and Mumbai. This suggests these cities have a higher acceptance and preference for energy drinks.
• The Energy Drink Popularity: The primary reasons for consumption were combating fatigue (2,428 respondents) and increasing energy and focus (3,574 respondents).
• Tier Effect: Tier 1 cities showed higher consumption (24,695) compared to Tier 2 cities (8,124). This disparity may be due to better marketing infrastructure and higher disposable income in Tier 1 cities.
• Total Respondents: 10,000.

2. Consumer Analysis:
