Those who understand behaviour spot opportunities sooner.

Gain a complete view of your competitive landscape and identify sooner where change creates opportunities.

Usage & Attitude Research

Usage & Attitude research provides a clear picture of your market and the consumers making choices within it. We connect who uses which products with where, when and why they use them. This reveals the needs, perceptions and preferences that drive behaviour, where opportunities exist within your category and how to build a solid foundation for your marketing plan.

Who is
this for?

You lack a complete view of your market.

You know who uses your product, but want to better understand how consumers use, experience and evaluate your category.

You want to understand what drives consumer choice.

You want to uncover the needs, motivations and perceptions behind consumer behaviour and understand why people choose particular products or brands.

You are looking for new opportunities for growth.

You want to identify which usage occasions, target audiences or market developments offer opportunities to grow your brand, communications or product portfolio.

See where shifts in your market create opportunities.

Knowing who uses your product is valuable. But only when you understand what, where, when and why consumers choose can you see how your market really works. Usage & Attitude research brings these different perspectives together and reveals what drives behaviour within your category.

We turn these insights into a category model tailored to your market. This shows not only how consumers behave today, but also where change is emerging and where new opportunities exist for your brand, communications or product portfolio.
