- Media Planning Simulator | DVJ Insights
Media Planning Simulator How can you optimise your media strategy? < Back to all solutions Contact How can you best allocate your media budget throughout the year? What is the best strategy to be “always on”? When am I spending too much on media? And when am I not spending enough? Am I doing enough to break through the clutter? How can I use the strength of my creation in media planning? These are important questions when aiming to increase the ROI of your media efforts. Optimising media efforts is complex because there are a lot of different channels and there isn’t one KPI which can be used to measure all activities. For that reason, DVJ’s Media Planning Simulator calculates a new KPI which connects all media efforts. It takes the strength of each medium type into account, how memory and the strength of a creation work. With this simulator we can determine how many efforts are needed per week to achieve optimum effect. Our approach DVJ’s Media Planning Simulator is based on an academically validated process to help complete and optimise your media strategy. The study is based on academically validated principles, ensuring high predictability. We start with an analysis of historic data through following three concrete steps: 1) calculating a new KPI which takes into account all efforts of your brand where the media plan will be used as a basis, 2) connecting this new KPI to different sources such as: sales, tracking KPI’s and other sources, 3) determining the optimal amount of efforts and contacts per week. The output isn’t just an analysis, but also an actionable tool which can be used to analyse each media plan. Due to the unique link with our pre-testing methodology, the strength of the creation can also be used in the calculation of each media plan. Our deliverables The media planning simulator is a practical instrument that can be used directly for the calculation of each media plan. Review of historical data by using multiple complex statistics translated to practical insights. An actionable tool where each media plan can be uploaded and calculated. Possibilities to easily finetune a plan and therefore work towards the best strategy for each plan. The possibility to allocate your media budget in the best way throughout the year, and thereby create a successful “always on” strategy. Our Senior Consultants add value to the workshop in the interpretation and discussion with important internal and external stakeholders. Your benefits from Media Planning Simulator Maximum efficiency from each media investment with the planning tool. We look at all media, not just the individual operation of one channel. Analysis of historical data with a direct link to sales or behaviour, translated to an easy-to-use planning tool. Always a maximum ROI of all efforts. Possibilities to incorporate all types of communication; not just Paid, but also Owned and Earned.

- In Home Use Test | DVJ Insights
In Home Use Test Does your new product meet the expectations of the consumer? < Back to all solutions Contact Does your product add anything to the existing offer? Does the consumer understand how the new product should be used or prepared? Would consumers want to use your product more often? Does the product meet the expectations set in the product concept in a prior stage? These are all important questions when introducing a product to market as they are based on real usage. DVJ’s in-Home Use Test (iHUT) is a validated way to test your new product among real consumers, before the product is put into production. The unique thing about the iHut is that consumers can use a new product in their own environment, combined with our unique approach for concept testing. An iHUT provides certainty just before product introduction. Our approach After we have selected enough consumers with a pre-screener, the new product is sent to the consumer. Dependant on the product, respondents will evaluate the product on different moments of usage. The iHUT is holistic and consists of different implicit and explicit research techniques. We use different techniques and tasks that are carried out at home to understand how people use the product or service and evaluate it. We gather rich qualitative feedback with our projective storytelling technique and free associations which help understand the product experience. We validate the potential of the new product by using the academically validated Acceptor/Rejector model, giving insight in the extent to which consumers accept the new product. This is comparable to different phases of testing innovations. We give consumers the possibility to upload photos or videos to bring the product experience to life. Linked to stories, it provides unique feedback. We offer a worry-free process by taking on the distribution of the products ourselves. We can use our own research community to select consumers. Our deliverables In the development and optimisation of new products, consumer feedback is of great importance. This means that an In Home Use Test should be carried out in a fast and efficient way. Reporting focused on evaluating usage and insights used for optimising the product and positioning. Access to our Insights Portal where next to all quantitative data, all stories, photos and free associations can be analysed. The most important results are summarised in a compact PowerPoint presentation where we determine the market potential of the concept and identify possible optimisations using the FUA-method . Our Senior Consultants add value in the presentation in the interpretation and discussion with important internal and external stakeholders. Completion of the study within 10 business days after fieldwork has ended. Your benefits Testing of a new product in a realistic environment with real consumers. Rich qualitative feedback used to bring the product to life. Quantitative validation to determine whether the product will be successful in its current state and how communication should be deployed. No more worries about the logistic process due to DVJ’s distribution model. Concrete recommendations which help implement optimisations.

- Idea Generation | DVJ Insights
Idea Generation Selecting the best idea and understand possibilities to optimize < Back to all solutions Contact How do you come up with ideas for a new campaign or product? With which ideas can you expand your brand’s domain? How do you develop a big idea for the newest advertising campaign? These are all important questions if you want to know where you’re heading with your work, but are looking for concrete links to innovation and communication. DVJ’s Idea Generation study explores and tests a large number of ideas in a fast and efficient way. With qualitative research on a small-scale, you only reach a few insights, but nothing beats letting a large group of people work for your brand to develop as many ideas as possible. The study mostly consists of storytelling and free associations, and through the large sample, lots of ideas are generated. It’s the ultimate way of letting your target group speak up at an early stage. Our approach DVJ’s Idea Generation study is fully focused on exploring a certain theme among a large number of consumers. We use different qualitative techniques which we apply on a large scale among a relevant target audience. We gather rich qualitative feedback with our projective storytelling technique which helps determine to what extent the underlying insight resonates. We base consumer feedback on your own brand positioning or brand thought; we let the consumer and client speak. We use visual research techniques to bring the theme to life and deliver direct input for further development. We use a large sample ensuring room for exploration and inspiration, but ideas can also be tested at this stage. Our deliverables In determining the ideas with the most potential, consumer feedback is of great importance. An idea generation study is carried out in a fast and efficient way and fits the development process. The output fits all different target groups in the organisation: A full storybook that can become the basis of innovation and communication. Experience has taught us that everyone in the organisation wants to see and read the book. Access to our Insights Portal where next to all quantitative data, all stories and free associations can be analysed. Results are explained in a workshop by a Senior Consultant, where we explore concrete development directions. Completion of the study within 7 business days after fieldwork has ended. Your benefits from Idea Generation Your brand story or positioning is brought to life by consumers and clients in their own words. Rich qualitative feedback is an inspiration for further development carried out among a large-scale and representative sample. The possibility to explore and develop lots of ideas, but also validate insights directly. Inspiring workshop session by a Senior Consultant.

- Market Sizing | DVJ Insights
Market Sizing What is the best go to market strategy for arguments, RTB’s, communication, packaging and pricing < Back to all solutions Contact Innovation initiatives drive business growth but demand careful allocation of often limited resources, particularly in areas like research and development. Organizations prioritize initiatives based on well-founded business cases that weigh expected revenues against costs to estimate profit potential. However, accurate market sizing, a critical component, can be challenging, especially when innovations create new dynamics in market structure and consumer demand. Key Challenges in Market Sizing for Innovation: Market sizing for innovations typically faces three main challenges: Data Limitations : Many innovations rely on specific prerequisites without existing data. For instance, a new indoor-climate generator may need market data on households with particular space requirements, creating a gap that complicates accurate sizing. Blurry Market Boundaries : Innovations often cross traditional category lines or create new ones, making clear market definitions difficult. A product that blends snacking and gut health, for instance, requires analysis of a new hybrid market and definition by consumer need. Market Dynamism : Market sizes often change as innovations enter the field, so market sizing must be forward-looking. What constitutes a market before launch may evolve rapidly after product entry. DVJ’s Custom Approach to Market Sizing: At DVJ, we understand the complexity and uniqueness of market sizing for innovation. Avoiding standard, one-size-fits-all approaches, we offer tailored strategies based on a comprehensive understanding of each innovation’s market potential. Our approach includes the following steps: In-Depth Scoping : We start with a thorough review of the planned innovation to ensure every relevant detail is captured, forming a strong foundation for the study. Secondary Research and Stakeholder Insights : We conduct extensive secondary research and interviews to collect existing data and generate “proxy data” as an anchor for further study, calibrating and refining the market size estimation. Representative Sample Design : We create a detailed sample framework to accurately reflect market composition, ensuring significant consumer segments are well-represented through techniques like boost samples or controlled sample exhaustion. Pre-Tested Questionnaire Development : To capture relevant data effectively, we design and pre-test questionnaires with techniques that allow respondents to answer reliably, using methods such as look-up tasks and proxy questions. Advanced Data Modelling : Finally, we apply advanced modelling methods, including multi-weighting, triangulation, and scenario simulations to provide robust and actionable market size estimates. Our Distinctive Strengths in Market Sizing for Innovation Our market sizing approach combines three essential capabilities that make DVJ Insights a reliable partner for innovation-led businesses: Expertise in Market Sizing : Our deep experience in market sizing and innovation ensures reliable project leadership and dependable results. Technical and Methodological Proficiency : From advanced primary research to complex data modelling, our team has the skills needed for accurate, reliable outcomes. Strategic Synergy and Insight : Beyond market sizing, we identify additional research opportunities that enhance the broader innovation process. We recognize that market definitions can expand with innovation, helping clients maximize resource efficiency and market impact. DVJ’s approach provides critical insights for informed innovation planning, ensuring your initiatives are supported by precise, actionable market data to optimize success in new or evolving markets.

- No Working on Powder Days | DVJ Insights
No working on powder days. A glimpse into the culture and values that make working at DVJ Insights different. No Working on Powder Days Life’s too short—live it to the fullest, and if it’s on the snow, even better. Just don’t let a powder day catch you stuck in the office! - NWPD The idea behind No Working on Powder Days At DVJ, we believe that great ideas start with energised minds. That’s why we introduced the No Working on Powder Day: a spontaneous day off for when conditions are just right to do something you truly love—whether it’s skiing, skating, hiking, horseback riding, or anything else that fuels your passion. It’s not about taking time off. It’s about making space for what inspires you. Each Powder Day story is a reflection of the individuality and joy we value at DVJ. Here are some of the experiences our colleagues have shared. Lara Dirven - HR Business Partner A powder day in Berlin A planned visit to my brother’s wedding venue in Friesland had to be postponed when bad weather and illness got in the way. But with a day off already booked and the family ready for an adventure, we decided to make the most of it. We bought a Museumkaart and spent the day at the National Military Museum, where military vehicles, indoor playgrounds, and plenty of space to explore kept everyone entertained. Afterward, we squeezed in another playground visit before ending the day with a relaxed evening at home. The original plan may not have worked out, but the day turned into exactly what we needed: quality family time, unexpected fun, and a reminder that sometimes the best moments come from changing course. Lily van Eeden & Jeff Repko - Knowledge and Solutions Specialist & Research Director Powder Day at Phantasialand After having to postpone last year’s trip, Jeff and I finally spent our Powder Day at Phantasialand, near Cologne. As true pretparkgekkies , we arrived prepared with queue times, weather forecasts, and a clear plan for the day. We started with the water rides while the sun was still out, got completely soaked, and then ticked off the other outdoor attractions before the rain arrived. The day was full of fun, joy, and adrenaline, and it felt great to finally make this long-awaited trip happen. We ended with indoor rides, including Maus au Chocolat, where Jeff beat me in the final moments of our whipped-cream shooting battle. It was a special day out that felt like much more than a regular day off. Glenn Manders - Knowledge and Solutions Specialist FA Cup Weekend in the UK I used my Powder Day of 2026 for a last-minute FA Cup weekend in the UK with three friends. Football makes me genuinely happy — and the UK feels like the holy grail. We planned four matches but made it to three after one went to extra time and penalties. The shootout was brilliant, and the keeper (who played for my favourite team back home last season) saved all three. We travelled through Preston, Liverpool and Manchester, ticked off incredible stadiums — Old Trafford was the highlight — and made great memories, with fish & chips and a pint to top it off. Frans Deelen Souza - Client Consultant Spending quality time with the family I chose 21 March for my Powder Day for two meaningful reasons. It was my wife’s birthday, and we celebrated with a romantic lunch and a walk by the lake. It was also World Down Syndrome Day, a day that holds special meaning for our family. We took the time to celebrate our oldest son’s achievements and reflect on the importance of support and awareness. The sun was shining, and the day brought a perfect balance of quiet time and moments with loved ones. I’m grateful for the opportunity to enjoy it. Laura Henigman - Research Expert Surfing on the coast of Portugal I just got back from a holiday in Ericeira, Portugal’s beautiful surf town and Europe’s first World Surfing Reserve. It was the perfect mix of activity and relaxation—surfing, running, yoga, tennis, beach time, and great company. On my last day, I used my powder day for one final surf session. Surfing is tougher than it looks, with lots of paddling and wipeouts, but between all the falls, I managed to catch a few good waves. It was challenging, fun, and totally worth it. Glenn Manders, Jelle Pruijn - Knowledge and Solutions Specialist & Teamlead Research Powder Day Turns Party Day What started as a laid-back visit to the old DVJ office turned into an unexpected celebration. While cashing in our Powder Day, Maartje, Glenn and I found ourselves in the middle of the Nijmeegse Vierdaagse. We joined the cheering crowds, caught up with colleagues, and ended the day dancing through Nijmegen’s streets. A simple plan became a spontaneous reunion — full of sun, stories, and surprise fun. Elsemieke Lijmbach - Office Manager Galloping Freedom on the Dutch Coast Going back to the Dutch coast with a close friend was truly unforgettable. We enjoyed a private 3.5-hour horseback tour that took us from galloping through the dunes to cantering freely along the shoreline. My horse for the day, Magic, made the whole experience even more special, living up to the name in every way. The splashing waves meant we couldn’t capture much on camera, but the few photos we did get riding in the water are enough to bring back the memory. What stood out most was the sense of freedom — the wind, the sea, the power of the horse beneath me — all combined with the joy of sharing such a unique adventure with a friend. Floor Lieskamp - Research Expert A Special Day in Zeeland For my mom’s birthday, I wanted to give her something memorable, so I planned a day trip to one of her favourite places — Zeeland. On Thursday evening, I travelled from Rotterdam to my parents’ house so we could enjoy dinner and a relaxing evening walk together. The next morning, we drove an hour to Vrouwenpolder, where we had a delicious lunch at Lekker, a beach bar with stunning sea views and perfect weather. Afterwards, we explored the beautiful town of Veere, wandering through its charming streets, browsing the small shops, and taking in the harbour and historic bastion. We ended the day with ice cream and a refreshing drink — the perfect way to celebrate together. Lissy Tijhuis - Research Expert A Powder Day in the Sun Last week’s sunny forecast inspired me to take my Powder Day on Wednesday and soak up the summer weather. I started with a refreshing morning run, then headed to the lush Amelisweerd estate near Utrecht to meet a friend. Surrounded by historic country houses, winding woodland paths, and the sparkling Kromme Rijn, we spent the afternoon picnicking, chatting, playing games, and even taking a cooling dip in the river. From the meadow, I could spot our office in the distance—a reminder of how special it is to swap my desk for nature now and then. It was the perfect midweek reset and exactly what a Powder Day is meant for. Dennis Hulsebos - Technology Integration Specialist Powder Day: Naturalis & Suriname On 2 January I used my Powder Day to join my girlfriend Nicky and her family at Naturalis. Her grandma and aunt came over from Suriname for Christmas, and it felt special to spend that day together. We started early in Leiden with a gym session with her aunt (she does CrossFit in Suriname). For me it was a milestone too: my first heavy deadlift/squat session in over two years after a long knee injury. Then we headed to Naturalis and visited the temporary Suriname exhibition — a great mix of nature, history, and the country’s ties to the Netherlands, plus its beauty and wildlife (including the capybara). Pia Stork - Client Consultant A Special Auction Week Thanks to my Powder Snow Day, I was able to follow our 2024 foals — now yearlings — from the moment they left the stud farm to their arrival at the auction. It was such a joy to spend the whole day with them, talking to potential buyers, showing the horses several times, and catching up with fellow breeders. On Friday, the auction itself took place, and both yearlings were successfully sold to trainers around the country. The goodbyes are never easy, but knowing they are starting a new chapter makes it easier. With the “teenagers” moved out, we’re now ready and excited to welcome the foals of 2025. Martin Hellich - Head of Innovation Catching the Wind On 26 September, I had my own perfect Powder Day. And it truly lived up to its original meaning: “One should absolutely not be working on a day like this.” For me, that meant: 20–28 knots of wind, Great temperatures and plenty of sunshine Those are the days when my heart starts racing and my mind drifts straight to the coast — where windsurfing dreams come true. While others (the real maniacs!) might have had to “call in sick,” I didn’t have to. Thanks to DVJ’s culture, I could take an official Powder Day — guilt-free and with the full support of my team. Mandy Boomgaarden - Research Expert A Paris Powder Day I just wanted to share a few good vibes from my Powder Day last Friday. I used it to extend a weekend in Paris with my dad — his first time there — and we had the best time exploring the city. From visiting the beautifully restored Notre-Dame to cycling along the Seine and around the Arc de Triomphe, it was an unforgettable adventure. To top it off, we climbed the Eiffel Tower in the middle of a downpour, only to be greeted by a rainbow at the top. It was such a special way to spend extra time together and make lasting memories. Irmina Bendzera - Research Expert A Powder Day Readathon On a rainy powder day, I spent my time in an unusual way — joining friends for a 24-hour Readathon. From 8AM to 8AM, we read as much as we could, only pausing for spontaneous moments like watching Mamma Mia outside, a 6AM chat about school reading lists, and admiring the sunrise. By the end, I’d read six books (finished three), shared plenty of laughs, and slept through the next day. Staying up all night to read isn’t for everyone, but reading with friends makes it unforgettable — sharing reactions, discussing stories, and experiencing it all together. Jelle Quak - Global Director Strategy & Solutions Powderday: Slowing Down to Move Forward Yesterday, Marloes and I signed up for a trail marathon in the Austrian mountains — a bold goal, but just like in our work, growth comes from showing up every day. I used my Powderday to start training with an easy run through the Dutch polder: long dikes, low skies, a heron lifting off, and even my old school along the way. The rest of the day stayed slow — groceries, cooking, and studying Bol’s toy catalogue with my daughter. Not epic, but a calm, steady start toward that daunting finish line — ten heartbeats lower than usual. Leonie Hamstra - Research Expert The Luxury of Doing Nothing Life is busy. Fun, but busy. Family, friends, work, sports… Oh, and a new house we’re currently renovating and moving into in four weeks. Balancing everything is a lot. Fun, but a lot. So yesterday, I decided to drop the packing, skip the cooking for my daughter, and stop checking (for the 100th time) how the fieldwork of that one project was going. Instead? I did NOTHING. A day with me, myself & my books at the sauna. The hardest decision of the day was which piece of cake to pick with my coffee. Loved it! That busy life is a luxury. A luxury that felt even more luxurious when I got to escape it for a day in the sauna. Thnx DVJ! Gabriele Herrmann - Client Consultant The Mushroom Hunt For my Power Day, I swapped screens and city noise for the quiet of the forest. With one of my oldest friends, I spent the day exploring, talking, and searching for mushrooms — my favourite autumn ritual. Her son had promised us a magical spot “full of mushrooms,” but after hours of walking, we found just one lonely specimen. We laughed, of course. The real treasure turned out to be the day itself — the crisp air, deep conversation, and simple joy of wandering. We returned home with enough for dinner for two and a sense of calm that felt far richer than any basketful of mushrooms. Lenneke Keulemans - Research Expert Powder Day Reunion Last weekend, I took my Powder Day in Maastricht — not for the weather, but for nostalgia. I met up with my university friends, the same group I was randomly paired with ten years ago because our last names started with the same letter. To celebrate a decade of friendship, we returned to Maastricht, where our first weekend trip took place. We ate, laughed, explored, shopped, and even biked through the dark caves of Valkenburg — a thrilling reminder that some adventures never get old. Sofunne Ohajunwa - Research Expert A Joyful Powder Day in Lagos I spent my powder day in Lagos, Nigeria, celebrating my cousin’s traditional wedding with my family. It was a beautiful day full of love, music, and incredible food. The venue was stunning, and we enjoyed every moment—from the bride’s graceful entrance and symbolic palm wine ceremony to dancing late into the night. I’m very grateful to DVJ for giving me the chance to reconnect with my second home—already looking forward to my next trip! Kirsten Bartels - Client Consultant A Peaceful Powder Day at Lake Tegernsee For my powder day, I travelled across Germany to visit a long-time friend who lives by the beautiful Lake Tegernsee. I even added an extra day—just because I could—to enjoy simple moments that make me happy, like swinging and relaxing by the lake. As the sun set, I sat with two of my favourite people, soaking in the calm and beauty of the evening. It was the perfect mix of friendship, nature, and gratitude. A big thank you to DVJ Insights for making this day possible. Mark Vroegrijk - Senior Methodologist Powder Day at “Elluf-Elluf” With the year coming to an end, I used my Powder Day to celebrate “Elluf-Elluf,” the official start of Carnaval. In perfect weather, two friends and I headed to Kruikenstad (Tilburg) for an afternoon of music, DJs, and Brabant-famous artists. We joined a lively student cantus filled with Carnaval songs and stayed for the reveal of the new “Raad van Elf” and Prince Carnaval. Afterwards, the celebrations continued in the spirit of this year’s theme: “Agge aanders kèkt, ziedet beeter!” A day full of fun, friendship, and Carnaval energy. Thanks, DVJ! Teun Swierstra - Research Expert A Snowy Powder Day in Sweden Over the past two weeks, I visited my girlfriend Melanie in Gothenburg for a “working from X” stay — the perfect moment to use my Powder Day. With –5°C temperatures and fresh snow, we took a 5:15 a.m. train to Stockholm for a day of exploring. After a much-needed flat white, we wandered through the city, visited the ABBA Museum, and—my personal highlight—the Avicii Experience. We ended the day with a stunning sunset and two new LPs to take home. A fantastic Powder Day. Thanks to DVJ for making this possible. Nicole Engels - Global Lead Academic & Industry Partnerships A Powder Day Full of Friends, Campers & Art Yesterday I enjoyed a fantastic Powder Day with friends. We started in Hillegom to explore more than 150 camper vans for a friend who’s hoping to buy one — testing beds, trying (dry) showers, and checking out every dashboard. Afterwards we headed to Haarlem for lunch, where another friend joined us, and we finished the day at the Michelangelo exhibition at the Teylers Museum — truly amazing. A wonderful Powder Day spent with friends I’ve known since I was 18. Thanks, DVJ! Lisette Kruizinga-de Vries - Thought Leader Science & Analytics A Relaxing Powder Day at the Sauna Last Friday, I spent a wonderfully relaxing Powder Day with my husband. We started with a sunny morning walk, then packed our towels and books for a full day at Sauna van Egmond, just a short bike ride from home. With busy schedules and family life, taking a day to switch off was exactly what we needed. We enjoyed multiple saunas, the ice-cold plunge pool, a duo massage, and a delicious lunch. A perfect reset — and a great start to the weekend. Evelien Edwards - Research Director Celebrating 85 Years – A Weekend Full of Family, Fun & Memories For my grandma’s 85th birthday, we went away for a weekend with over 30 family members. I helped prepare a pub quiz, decorations, and even a homemade medal, which turned into a fun way to catch up with relatives from Belgium and Germany. To finish it off, we surprised my grandma with a photo book so she can relive this special weekend again and again. Jan Aarts - Client Consultant A Magical Powder Day at Disneyland For my Powder Day, I went to Disneyland Paris with my whole family, including my two nephews on their very first visit. As a rollercoaster and theme park fan, it was special to experience the park at Christmas through their eyes—festive lights, rides, hot chocolate, mulled wine and fireworks. It was a joyful day full of excitement, memories and family time—thanks to DVJ for making it possible. Maria Sanchez Raposo - Market Lead Spain Finding My Path on Powder Day On Friday 28 November, I celebrated my six-month anniversary at DVJ with my first Powder Day. Instead of skiing, I took two solo mountain hikes near Madrid—new trails, winding roads and even a small detour that ended at a hidden waterfall. In a year full of change, including buying a new home, a day to disconnect, walk and literally find my way on a new path helped me reset and gain perspective. Dr. Kai Geertsema - Senior Client Consultant Sunshine, Steps & a Shiba Inu Thanks to DVJ’s working from X option, I spent three weeks in Andalusia with my girlfriend Jana and our Shiba Inu, Popi. On my powder day I traded my laptop for sunshine, starting with a beach walk and a slightly chaotic photo shoot with Popi. In Málaga I explored the Alcazaba and the Roman theatre, had pistachio cheesecake by the cathedral, and visited the Picasso Museum, where Bather (1971) became my favourite piece. The day ended with a short boat trip, 15,000 steps on my Garmin, and a relaxing evening on the sofa with Popi—recharged and very grateful for the freedom to work from anywhere. PS: The next day we went to the Sierra Nevada, above 2,500 metres, with actual snow! Dorte Torpe Hansen - Client Consultant A Midweek Powder Day in the Woods Last Wednesday I grabbed the chance for a “powder day” – not on skis, but orienteering. For this time of year the weather in the south of the UK was perfect: blue skies, sunshine and a light frost. I joined a midweek British Army training event (civilians allowed!), armed with a map and compass and hunting for controls in classic south-east English woodland. It didn’t take all day (I didn’t get that lost), so I still had the afternoon for a bit of Christmas planning, shopping – and finally, feet up. Ralph Sluis - Client Consultant A Sinterklaas Powder Day Last Friday I took my Powder Day on a special date: 5 December, the birthday of both my wife and Sinterklaas. My wife works at a language school for refugee children from countries like Syria and Ukraine, so we turned the day into a Sinterklaas party – I dressed up as the old man himself, and my daughter joined as a very cute helper. The children, who had just learned about this Dutch tradition, were over the moon and kept hugging us all morning. Their happiness was priceless – thank you DVJ for my Powder Day. Sonja Vernooij - Client Consultant A Weekday Winter Garden Escape Last week I had my own Powderday—and loved it, even without taking many photos. I’m a garden lover, so garden centres are usually my happy place. But in winter they turn into busy Christmas hubs. So instead of braving a December weekend crowd, I went on a weekday with my best friend to Intratuin Halsteren’s famous Christmas fair, full of light shows and a theme-park feel. I came home with bird food, new bowls, a fresh “outfit” for our tree, and a big smile. Remco Havermans - The Lab A Powder Day Well Spent Yesterday I used my powder day before the end of the year. I kicked things off with a quiet Monday morning round of golf—peaceful, few people, and plenty of fresh air. In the afternoon, I attended a friend’s master’s thesis defense, featuring a presentation on whether acid leaching could be profitable for extracting nickel from nanofibers. I didn’t catch every detail, but it was great to be there and support him. All in all, it was the perfect day to recharge before the final sprint to Christmas. Thanks, DVJ, for the powder day! Kara Tiedtke - Research Expert A Powder Day with Family and Food A couple of weeks ago, I used my powder day to extend my weekend for a special family occasion: my younger brother’s graduation in Maastricht. My parents and sister came to Amsterdam a day early, so I got to play tour guide. We started with coffee and a city stroll, then enjoyed a long lunch at Restaurant De Kas—a greenhouse restaurant known for its plant-to-plate philosophy and beautifully crafted dishes. That evening, we took the train to Maastricht to celebrate with my brother, his friends, and their families. With our family spread across different countries, time together like this feels extra special. Johann Lippmann - Client Consultant Culture, Cuisine & the Stockholm Archipelago I spent a long weekend in Stockholm with my girlfriend, exploring the city at an easy pace. With very grey (Dutch…) weather, we opted for indoor culture first—art at the National Gallery (free on Thursday evenings and well worth it). Food was a highlight too: classic Swedish dishes at Restaurang Tradition, modern cooking at Bar Agrikultur, and creative cocktails at Bar Afterglow (their IKEA-style menu is a fun read). When it dried up, we took a stroll through the city and caught the ferry out into the beautiful Stockholm archipelago. Thanks again for making this possible! Cathelijn te Koppele - Client Consultant Baby Cuddles & Boulder Chalk I used my Powder day to spend quality time with friends and go bouldering. In the morning, I took a roadtrip with a friend who’s about to leave for a six-month world trip, and we visited two friends in Amsterdam with their newborns—complete with baby cuddles and beschuit met muisjes, the classic Dutch maternity treat. After a stroll through the city and a park, I ended the day at the bouldering hall: trying new routes, high-fiving small wins, and going home with hands full of white chalk. A perfect reminder that progress comes one move at a time. Elin Scotford - Market Lead Nordics Snow, Sauna & a 5-Year Celebration My Powder day was all about enjoying the first snow of the season—and celebrating our five-year anniversary. With my partner travelling a lot for work, we made space for a proper day together. We went to Gothenburg, starting the night before at our favourite jazz club with my sister and her partner. The next morning we woke up to blue skies and fresh snow—something I really miss living in the south. We spent half the day at a lovely spa, then drove through snowy roads to visit family for a cosy evening. Snow, sauna, and good company—perfect. Thanks DVJ for the push to take a day and enjoy life Stefan Bliekendaal - Global Research Director Powder day at school I spent my Powder Day at my daughters’ school. As a klassenvader on the Christmas committee, I started the day at their school play in our neighbourhood church — one daughter shared a Christmas wish, the other played an angel. Afterwards, I grabbed lunch at my favourite Italian sandwich spot in Utrecht and took a short stroll to the Centraal Museum. Then it was back to school to help with Christmas dinner in the classrooms and the parents’ borrel in the schoolyard. Pleasantly tired, I ended the day at home with another episode of The Beast in Me (recommended!). Dijana Justic - Global Director Marketing Communications Maastricht, Dreams & a Powder Day Together I spent my Powder Day in Maastricht with my 17-year-old daughter, Sophie, who’s in her final exam year and dreams of studying at Hotel Management School Maastricht. After a two-hour drive south, we arrived in an area that feels like another country. We had lunch at the teaching hotel on campus — honestly Michelin-star worthy — followed by a presentation, campus tour, and a drink with students. Everything is nearby: the school, the teaching hotel, and the first-year student complex. We ended the day in Maastricht’s lively city centre with Christmas vibes, a bit of “why not” shopping, and a French dinner at Bistro Ferdinand. Tired but happy, we drove home chatting and singing along to Christmas songs. Jorge Lopez - Client Consultant Powder Day in Santander: Nature & History I used a 2025 Powder Day to stretch the last weekend of the year and head to Santander with my family — to explore both our surroundings and our past. We spent the day in two fascinating places: Cabárceno Nature Park, a former open-cast iron mine with Roman roots that’s now a huge animal conservation park, and the replica of the Altamira Cave, created to protect the original prehistoric paintings (over 10,000 years old). After all that, we headed back into the city centre for pinchos — the perfect modern ending to a day full of nature and history.
- Claim Test | DVJ Insights
Claim Test Which claim convinces your consumer the most? < Back to all solutions Contact Do your claims appeal enough? Which claims are best used for a successful introduction? Which claim realises the growth ambition? Are you able to distinguish yourself from your competitors with your claim? Are you able to connect your claim to your brand or product in a believable way? These are all important question to determine which claims should be used on a new packaging or in different types of communication. DVJ’s Claim Test offers insight into the potential of different claims in an efficient way. It helps to select the best claims through the use of validated research methods, where the predictive value is high, and the research provides a lot of concrete feedback. Our approach The foundation of DVJ’s Claim Test consists of a holistic research model allowing a large number of claims to be tested and determine which claims are the most appealing. This means we can identify to what extent claims fit the brand and if these claims fit the wishes and expectations of the target audience in a believable and distinctive way. We use different validated models such as conjoint analyse, maxdiff and the KANO-method. Our specialists select the best analyses for every question. We study which claim appeals the most and which appeals the least by using our validated methods. The maxdiff method is excellently suited to rank a large number of claims on importance or appeal and leads to more valid rankings than asking preference or ranking directly. We provide insight in the extent to which claims fit the perception people have of the brand and the product. We use different evaluation statements to get more insight into the believability, relevance and distinctiveness of the different claims. Our deliverables To fit the fast development processes of new packaging it’s important a claim is tested in a fast and efficient way. Insight into the strength of each claim in comparison with other claims helps in choosing the most convincing claims. Bringing the most important claims to life by using associative techniques. The most important results are summarised in a compact PowerPoint presentation where the claim with the most potential is identified using the FUA-method . Our Senior Consultants add value to the presentation in the interpretation and discussion with important internal and external stakeholders, such as the media and advertising agency. Completion of the study within 3 business days after fieldwork has ended. Your benefits from the Claim Test Clear ranking of the different claims by using a validated model. In-depth insights into the relevance, believability, brand fit and distinctiveness of the claims. Always the best model adapted to the needs of each client. Concrete recommendations that help implement optimisations and/or adjustments to the claims. Short timings so development can continue soon after.

Occasionally it happens that when research is carried out in the fifth class of secondary education, a 15-year-old occurs. In this case, the requirement of supervision or consent does not apply to such a 15-year-old in this specific circumstance. Young people from the age of 16 are expected to be able to oversee sufficiently and understand the purpose of research. When someone under the age of 16 wants to become a member of the DVJ panel, parents are nevertheless asked for consent. If it becomes clear during the process that someone is under 18 (without this being clear in advance), the respondent will be put on inactive until he/she can prove that he/she has reached the age of 18 years.

- Visual Identity Test | DVJ Insights
Visual Identity Test Is your new visual identity recognisable and distinctive? < Back to all solutions Contact Does your new visual identity fit the brand and positioning? Does your visual identity stand out enough? Is the new visual identity linked to the characteristics of your brand? Are the right elements of the visual identity attracting attention and is it easily recognisable? These are all important questions to determine whether your new visual identity is good enough to use in all types of communication. DVJ tests a new visual identity with a validated research model, which tests important characteristics such as recognisability, evaluation and as an influencer of choice, leading to rich insight into the potential of the new visual identity and concrete recommendations for possible optimisations. The visual identity can be optimised or adjusted at an early stage, before it will be used on a large scale. Our approach DVJ’s Visual Identity Test has been proven to be effective and is based on a unique combination of implicit and explicit research techniques. We test the visual identity on four different levels: 1) recognisability, 2) appreciation and evaluation, 3) support and strengthening of the brand values, and 4) confirmation of the choice. We use a few registration techniques like the instant appeal test and online eye tracking, so we know exactly how people pre-attentively react. We validate by using free associations and a set of evaluation and activation statements, and by using open question techniques we get a deeper insight into how the visual identity performs. We always take the visual identity of the competitors into account, and can also include the current visual identity. This allows the potential of the new visual identity to be made immediately insightful. Our deliverables To fit the short development processes, it’s important that a visual identity test is carried out in a fast and efficient way. The most important results are summarised in a compact PowerPoint presentation where the potential of the new visual identity is determined, and possible optimisations identified. Our Senior Consultants add value to the presentation in the interpretation and discussion with important internal and external stakeholders. Completion of the study within 5 business days after fieldwork has ended. Your benefits Insight into the potential of the new visual identity based on a validated model that both explores and validates. Concrete recommendations that help implement optimisations. Insightful presentations by our Senior Consultants. Short timings.
