B2B market research.
Bringing B2B organisations closer to their customers
Ellie Tehrani
B2B Market Research Lead
We help organisations deepen their understanding of their B2B customers to shape their strategy around their needs.
We have a long heritage in B2B market research, having started life over 30 years ago as a B2B agency. As such, we’re experts at conducting research with hard-to-reach B2B audiences across the world. From CMOs and CFOs to miners and machinery dealers, you can trust us not just to track down the people you want to reach but to design a research approach that will help you gain rich insights that would otherwise go uncovered.
Our research powers thought leadership, business consultancy and strategy development for leading B2B organisations. For instance, our work exploring the changing priorities of business decision makers in the face of COVID-19 has helped Bloomberg demonstrate its rich understanding of its B2B audience.
