Consumer Goods

Introduction

Staying ahead of the competition is crucial in retail environments, especially in an omni-channel marketplace that is increasingly reliant on social media throughout the all phases of the customer journey. Our deep experience researching consumers across all facets of this journey, along with our robust understanding of technical platforms and behavioral economics, allows us to effectively address even the most challenging consumer goods and retail research needs.

Today’s consumers have more choices and ways to access retail environments than ever before, and cross-channel monitoring and tailoring is vital for most retailers.  

We help our clients achieve genuine differentiation by unpacking consumer buzzwords and decoding generic phrases like ‘good value for money’, ‘quality’ and ‘customer experience’.

Understanding of Purchase Channels

Deep and clear understanding of consumer decision-making and routes to purchase are crucial for most businesses. So whether it’s in-store layout, app navigation, designing loyalty schemes or defining a pricing strategy, we have the context and experience to identify profitable solutions.
