How It Works
Using purpose-built survey and reporting technology, we can quickly access your current and potential customers using online research panels to provide you and your business with deep insights about the impact of your branded content.
The key steps in the process are :
Client Survey
We start by collecting relevant information from you about the branded content such as key campaign messages, competitors, category usage and purchasing habits.
Data Collection
Using purpose-built research technology, we survey a sample of relevant audiences (including category buyers / your customers) based on forced exposure to the content.
Analysis
By combining agile technology with a team of experienced Marketing Scientists, we quickly analyse your data and extract insights on the uplift to key brand and impact metrics.
Report
We produce a full report in PowerPoint / PDF format with all the key insights.
We also offer workshops via VC for selected clients (at a fee).
