    Consumer Behavior & Insights Externship with Health-Ade

    The same shopper sees 3 bottles in the grocery store: Health-Ade. Bolthouse Farms. Evolution Fresh. Different days, completely different purchases. All are owned by the same company, and their own purchase data can't explain what actually sends a shopper toward kombucha, cold-pressed juice, or a protein smoothie instead of one of the others. They want you to help figure it out: design and run a real survey, benchmark the category's biggest competitors, and build the kind of consulting-style case real firms use to brief executives. If you want to show future hiring managers you understand how to find out what their customer is ACTUALLY thinking, then these 6 weeks are for you.

Overview

The externship investigated why the same shopper chooses different beverage brands across visits. The work designed and ran a customer survey, benchmarked competitors across the category, and compiled findings into a consulting-style case that summarized tradeoffs and evidence for executive review.

What I've accomplished

I mapped the company's refrigerated product portfolio, designed a six-question Gen Z survey with trade-off and price logic, and published it as a Google Form for data collection.

Project breakdown

I mapped Generous Brands' refrigerated portfolio, chose surveys as the feasible method, drafted a 6-question Gen Z-focused survey with trade-off and price logic, and published the final Google Form.

I gathered 20 valid Gen Z survey responses, cleaned the dataset, ran descriptive stats and open-text coding, and found that respondents framed fizzy functional drinks as a refreshment ritual—63% of fizzy buyers would pay $4.79+ versus 17% of smoothie buyers, and "refreshing" dominated open answers.
