Skip to content Your audience’s thoughts, at your fingertips
Imagine having direct access to the thoughts and opinions of your audience, customers and consumers. With our insight community platforms, you can conduct agile, real-time research with thousands of customers, gaining valuable insights into their needs, preferences, and behaviours.
From polls and surveys to discussion rooms and location-based mapping, our tools enable you to anticipate customer needs, predict future behaviour and grow your business.
See how our tailored insight communities help brands engage with their customers, uncover valuable feedback, and drive meaningful growth in our business success stories.
Insight communities are designed for agile research, providing continuous feedback. Unlike ad-hoc research, these online communities offer a constant stream of insights from engaged panel members. They can also include non-customers, allowing you to gain insights from those who have chosen your competitors.
By engaging existing customers in insight communities, businesses can continuously collect real-time feedback, ideas, and preferences, enabling a deeper understanding of their customer’s needs and behaviours.
Expanding your insight community to include non-customers and competitors’ customers can provide valuable insights into market trends, competitive advantages, and preferences, helping you refine your strategies and identify ways to win over these segments.
Gather valuable feedback on competitors’ strengths and weaknesses, as well as their positioning in the market, on a continuous basis.
Test new offerings on a subset of existing customers and target demographics before revealing them to your wider market.
