MWITA-BAO-2026-008 · Evidence B · P1
Across six real extensions, successful extension trial increased subsequent parent-brand choice especially among prior parent-brand nonusers, while parent-brand experience predicted extension trial but not repeat; trial and repeat therefore require separate portfolio metrics.
What this does not establish
Household packaged-goods choice around six historical launches; cannot establish effects on brand recall, attitudes, profit or market value, and observational trial selection remains.
Counterevidence & uncertainty
Parent experience helped first trial but not repeat, while extension-to-parent feedback depended on extension success; acquisition and retention implications diverge.
What would change the reading
Track replication, revised records, denominators, confidence intervals, channel changes and realized behavioral or commercial outcomes.
