We Asked Parents about Buying for Home and Garden
We ran a two week insights project asking parents about their views on buying items for their home or garden. We were curious to hear their views on home and garden purchases; how do they plan for home and garden purchases, what retailers they like and why, what items they have bought for their home or garden this year, and more.
382 parents answered questions, actively shared their opinions and gave detailed commentary on the topic via an insights panel and an online survey.
We have compiled all the feedback along with key insights and actionable recommendations into one easily digestible report.
