01

Define audience and dimensions

Choose two meaningful perceptions and state which customers the ratings represent.

02

Supply comparable scores

Use one scale across brands and identify whether the values are surveyed or hypothetical.

Interpret cautiously

Ask to label clusters and gaps, then examine what additional evidence would support a positioning decision.

Map perceptions, not assumed market facts

A perceptual map positions brands on two dimensions of how an audience sees them. It simplifies a market into a view that supports discussion, while leaving other attributes and differences between audiences outside the chart.

Use it to frame positioning questions

Compare research findings, discuss competitive messaging, or formulate hypotheses for a survey. An empty area on the map is a question to investigate, not proof of a profitable opportunity.

Make the axes and evidence explicit

  1. Choose meaningful dimensions. Use attributes the intended audience can evaluate.
  2. State scale direction. Readers should know what low and high mean on each axis.
  3. Use comparable ratings. Mixing audiences or scales can create misleading distances.
  4. Identify assumptions. Estimated coordinates must not look like measured customer opinions.
  5. Keep extra encodings explained. Point size and color need a legend if they represent additional data.

Plot a supplied view of the market

MyMap can turn your brand ratings into a labeled positioning chart and revise it by request. The example places coffee brands on price and perceived-quality axes. Its positions are illustrative, and its different point sizes should not be read as verified market share.

Common questions

Does AI know how my customers perceive each brand?

Your customers' perceptions need research. Supply survey data or label the map as a hypothesis based on stated assumptions.

Does an empty quadrant prove a market gap?

It shows an unoccupied area within the selected dimensions and dataset. Demand, feasibility, and other competitors still need investigation.

Can I change the axes?

Yes. Name the new dimensions and provide suitable ratings. Coordinates from one pair of attributes cannot simply be reused for another.
