Incentivized Testing

Brands find unique ways to motivate consumers to get their eyes checked

Implications - Brands are finding new and distinct ways to motivate consumers to test their eyesight, offering a more experiential form of engagement with eyewear-related concerns. These emerging products and services not only serve to better market brands in this industry, but they also lift the anxiety or banality that consumers often associate with these medical check-ins. This shift reveals the potential for even the most objectively tedious services to transform into more engaging experiences, forming a point of reference that other brands can use to re-frame the more negatively viewed aspects of their own companies.
