Brand Insight team

Experienced consumer researchers and marketers.

Our Brand Insight team is made up of experienced consumer, market and social media researchers, together with senior marketers who have consulted on many of the leading global brands.

Together, our team has experience of working at Coca-Cola, Landor, Mintel, YouGov, GSK, Interbrand, TNS, dunnhumby, The Brewery and Alterian, amongst others. 

The team's unique mix of skills and experience enables us to apply and adapt insight identification techniques learned from traditional research methodologies to the relatively new insight source offered by social media.

Our research analysts are supported by leading technologies, but the research we conduct relies first and foremost on human analysis.

The Brand Insight team includes:

James Withey, Head of Brand Insight

James leads our Brand Insight offer, using media and especially social media sources, to identify previously unrevealed insights for our clients.
