SHORT ANSWERS
Experience speaks.
From the Word Clouds, when asking respondents about their worst experiences, as well as their high-level cognitive thoughts, behaviours, and attitudes towards their experiences – frequently-used words and themes became known. This was vital to understand if we were to appeal to a wider audience, keep our marketing strategy succinct, and pierce the minds of the interconnected and media-saturated consumers.
