Comprehensive Understanding. Contextual Insights. Clear Direction.
Process
01
Comprehensive
Understanding
We start by learning as much as possible about your business challenges and opportunities. Depending on the situation this may include client research and strategic plan review, internal stakeholder interviews, BrandSpark Shopper Study analysis, and other relevant materials.
Through collaborative sessions our senior team works with you to translate the unanswered questions revealed into key hypotheses to test – often discovering new ones in the process.
Only then do we implement the best approach to test the hypotheses as effectively and efficiently as possible – using the appropriate mix of qualitative and quantitative methodologies, proprietary tools, and custom solutions.
03
Clear Direction
Figuring out what to do is only part of the challenge. Once the “now what” has been established, we work with you to craft the fact-based story that will get the internal stakeholder buy-in you need to move forward.
We remain your partner throughout this process, with our senior team delivering or supporting presentations depending on your preference – and providing whatever ongoing assistance is required.
Result: Your organization moves forward with clear direction.
Expertise
Brand Strategy
Great brand positioning sits at the core of a strong business model, and is crucial for driving sustainable, profitable sales growth. Throughout the BrandSpark process we go beyond the data to find insights into specifically what strategic initiatives will propel the brand forward, with a focus on quantified prioritization of opportunities and a strong emphasis on brand trust.
Omni-Channel Shopper
The digital and real-world shopping spheres are increasingly blurred. We help companies “win at the shelf” both in-store and online by delivery category and product specific omni-channel shopper insights through both traditional and proprietary in-the-moment research methodologies.
Product Innovation
A culture of innovation is critical to long-term success. BrandSpark has a range of effective and efficient approaches to help clients improve early-stage ideation; more efficiently screen ideas down to the most promising opportunities; and quickly and cost effectively test new products and services both pre and early post launch to rapidly refine and help drive sales. Our Partnership with affiliated companies Best New Product Awards (BNPA) and Shopper Army allows us to provide clients unique and proprietary data, tools and shopper community access to help further ensure their new product and service launch success.
