BUSINESS & Culture Transformation

Finished business and culture transformation graph: the consumer, the business and company culture.

A brand is every touch-point with which the client comes in contact over the entire span of a company’s existence. Our foundational belief is that the ideal customer journey is represented by three interlinked components: the consumer; who is guided by the business; which lives the company culture. It is a symbiosis where the perfect customer journey has been established – placing the customer at the heart of everything.

Close up consumer polaroids emphasizing business transformation through transforming company culture.

At Our Core

Since 2000, we’ve prided ourselves on placing the consumer at the very heart of everything we do, mirroring consumer’s needs onto the brand, and reconstructing the company around the essence of customer needs. Over the years, our team have conducted more than 4,000 in-home consumer interviews and 2,000 B2B customer interviews across more than 80 countries, seeking to understand how to reposition businesses – and ultimately reconnect brands with customers.

Neuroscience

Every dimension of our research is rooted in a solid scientific foundation. Over the past decade we’ve conducted some of the world’s largest and most comprehensive consumer investigation studies including our ongoing neuromarketing research program, a $7 million study involving more than 2,000 respondents across six countries. The program has been hailed by Wall Street Journal as one of the most sophisticated studies ever conducted on consumer psychology.
