Research Optimisation

We review your existing research programmes and find ways of making them more insightful and more cost effective.

  
 
Marketing Effectiveness

We observe your customers' experience at key touch-points with your brand to understand barriers and triggers to purchase.

We explore your ideas and concepts to find the most compelling. If they don't excite we find out why and how to make them better.

  
 
Retail Impact

We gather customer feedback wherever they are, at any time and in any channel. If they are delighted or unhappy we tell you why.

SOURCES OF CUSTOMER OPINION HAVE PROLIFERATED

New technologies have changed the way that people interact with brands. Former linear relationships have been replaced by complex multi-channel webs which need new approaches

 

 
On-Device

Feedback at the moment of brand exposure, in real time, and at a time convenient for the customer not the client or the agency.

  
 
Consumer Databases

Using 100+ global panels gives us unrivalled consumer access, whilst marketing databases let us reach wider, deeper and more insightfully.

  
 
Insight Ambassadors

Using interviewers who represent the brand (stylish, motivated, engaging) and reflect the profile and mindset of its customers.

  
 
Social Media

Going beyond what is being said to why it is being said, knowing who is talking and learning their real motives.

  
 
App Development

Mobile apps allow feedback at the exact point of brand interaction. Our apps are designed to engage and motivate. 

  
 
Online Communities

A uniquely effective way to ask complex questions, gain deeper insight and track consumer behaviour longitudinally.

PLEASE TAKE A LOOK AT SOME OF OUR WORK

 

GOURMET NIGHTS

We were asked to develop a deeper sense of the dynamics and ‘codes’ of luxury food shopping. Using video ethnography and behavioural economics we redefined the understanding of luxury experience and created category and range plans to deliver those expectations. 

MINE'S A COFFEE

We run a challenging multi channel project combining social media listening, online community and mobile surveys to identify the real reasons for the decline of UK's pub industry. We redefined the understanding of consumer behaviour in this market

HOLIDAY CASH

We overlaid a client's complex segmentation model onto an online community to observe how each segment's expectations, behaviours, attitudes and experiences changed longitudinally during the entire purchase journey for foreign currency.

IN WITH THE NEW

We replaced a traditional Exit survey with a nimble tablet-based study using brand ambassador interviewers. Shopper feedback is recorded using our custom-made App and reported on mobile dashboards for 30 retail centres in 15 countries - 40,000 opinions annually.

We now get much quicker, deeper feedback from multiple view points from different customer types on a more timely basis. We now deliver services more effectively.

Matt Burke - McArthurGlen

You have been bang on in terms of collecting customer feedback in multiple channels. The output is now driving our core strategy planning.

Alistair Rennie - Google

Your combined use of social media, communities and surveys has produced insight never available to us before. It has been a revelation.

Andy Shaw - CAMRA

Using interviewers that reflect our estate's shoppers, stylish, young and engaging, has been ground-braking. No one has been able to provide this before.

Leanne Peters - Canary Wharf Group

This is now the fourth year we've worked with The Opinion Company and the service you provide is amazing. Thank you guys!

Luis Fernandez - Expedia

I love The Opinion Company. Absolutely amazing results and experience and an environment where you interact with incredible talent!
