Deeper Strategy Insight to Solve Key Brand and Company Challenges
TRANSCEND
Brand MRI™ goes beyond basic understanding of consumer needs to solve important company strategy questions for your brand. Using creative combinations of techniques and inventive questioning, we customize studies to drive deeper comprehension, insight, and actionability.
STATUS QUO
Many quant firms package their studies into standard buckets (e.g. A&U, Habits & Practices, Concept Tests, Segmentation) rather than starting with a blank slate and the flexibility to customize the solution around the objectives.
Segmentation studies are often so expensive, slow, and over-done, researchers split hairs past the point of diminishing returns; plus, the process is too expensive to keep up-to-date.
Researchers often don’t leverage existing client research enough, or think deeply enough through the client problem.
