What is Gabor-Granger Market Research?

The Gabor-Granger Method determines the best price of a product or service.

To clarify, “best” means the price that will bring the most revenue. It uses a survey with 5 to 10 price points to collect data on demand at each price. Afterward, respondents answer if they would be willing to buy the product at that price. The options given for each price are usually a YES or a NO.

For instance, there is a commodity that a business is trying to sell. That business proceeds to set up a survey with ten participants. Also, the price points were $10, $20, $30, $40, $50, $60, $70, $80, $90, $100. During the survey, each respondent answers if they would buy the product at a certain price point. If they answered YES, they have to answer the same question at a random higher price. But, if they answered NO, they have to answer it at a random lower price.

For instance:

1. The initial price is $50, the respondent answers, “YES.”

2. The new price is $70; the respondent marks “NO.”

3. The new price is $60; the respondent marks “YES.”

Thus, $60 is the highest the respondent is willing to pay.

Vice versa,

1. The initial price is $50; the respondent answers “NO

2. The new price is $30, respondent answers, “YES.”

3. The new price is $40, respondent answers “NO.”

Thus, $30 is the highest the respondent is willing to pay
