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:

and research, gained at Interbrand, Henley Centre Headlight Vision,

diverse range of clients, including Nestle, Land Rover, Morrisons
and M&S. James leads our Brand Insight offer, using media and
especially social media sources, to identify previously unrevealed
insights for our clients.
