Advertising market research.
Optimizing your campaigns through powerful market research
Ash Awasthi
Advertising Agency Market Research Lead
We work with advertising agencies to help them maximize the impact of their campaigns.
By marrying our expertise in market research with your creative capabilities, we can help you develop ads that cut through and deliver value for your clients. We can support you at the start of the process, unearthing the core human truths needed to inspire great creative. We can also test ads prior to launch, helping to refine campaigns so that they resonate with your client’s target audience and deliver against their objectives. Finally, post launch, we can help in evaluating overall ad performance, pinpointing opportunities for your clients to increase the impact of their marketing spend.
Our experience in this space is vast. We’ve helped ad agencies get closer to their target audiences and test ads across multiple markets – and with various audiences – from farmers to vets to investors.
