Test Message Resonance: Find Out Which Messages Stick — and Which Ones Fall Flat

TL;DR: What this template does

This template analyzes recorded sales or campaign calls to identify which messages resonated most — and which didn’t land.
Upload voice-of-customer interactions, and get a report showing emotional responses, confusion triggers, and quote-backed insights.

Why resonance matters more than delivery

It’s not just what you said — it’s what they heard.

This template helps you measure message effectiveness in real conversations, so you can sharpen, replace, or double down.

Definition: Message resonance is the degree to which language or positioning connects emotionally or cognitively with your audience — observable through reactions, follow-up questions, and tone.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does Insight7 decide what “falls flat”?
It flags language that’s ignored, misunderstood, or met with skepticism — and scores it lower in terms of emotional impact or follow-up engagement.
Does this analyze body language or just language?

Language only — but it’s deeply tuned to verbal and tonal cues.

How does this differ from click testing or surveys?

It’s behavior-based — not hypothetical. You’re seeing real-world responses, not guesses.
