Node Description

Tag Importance Node

The Tag Importance node correlates the Features, Benefits, Attributes and Consumer Sentiment that describe a Product with the sales performance of that Product.

While many Customers may have Tagged a Product as having ‘Quick Delivery’ or as being ‘Accurately Described’ it may be that these Tags are not important to whether the Customer purchased the Product. Correlation among the Products in the Customer’s ‘Consideration Set’ may demonstrate that a less common Tag such as ‘Easy To Use’ more accurately predicts whether the Customer will purchase this Product or not. Companies should focus on improving a Product’s most important Tags.

This Premium Node is not available as part of the free Community Edition. Premium Nodes help clean and connect real-world data to Market Simulations, and provide advanced Market Science analysis. Note that these descriptions are often deliberately vague.
