RQ: Why does Under Armour struggle to reach the success of its top competitors?
Limitations
Though I believe that the flow of our survey was well-done, some of the questions that
we asked could have either been worded different, omitted, or put on a scale. Due to a limited
demographic, we were also unable to target out niche group that would allow Under Armour to
use a condensed set of data to create a campaign specific to individuals how exercise frequently.
Change in Logic
One of the logic filters that directed respondents to a specific question based on their
previous answer limited the amount and variety of responses we received, and also took away
from our ability to spot and insight in terms of why people who do not own Under Armour
choose not to purchase the brand.
Question 6 asks, How satisfied are you with the quality of Under Armour clothing? In
order to see question 6, a respondent must have answered that they own Under Armour in the
previous question, What brand(s) of athletic-wear do you own? Check all that apply. While
analyzing our data, my group came to the conclusion that it would have been in our best interest
to allow every respondent to answer question 6, instead of having only those who own Under
Armour answer it. The deletion of the logic filter omitted the opportunity for individuals who do
not own Under Armour to let us know how they feel about the brand. In turn, we lost potential
insight on why people are not buying Under Armour and instead choose to purchase from
competitors such as Nike and Adidas.
