The challenge

Treatwell started life as an idea around a dining room table in 2008. Now, over 25,000 salons across 11 European countries have partnered with Treatwell, making the most of both the salon software and the consumer-facing hair & beauty booking platform. The research partnership between Kadence International and Treatwell has been integral to this growth journey. Building strong B2B relationships is at the heart of Treatwell’s success. Its partnerships with hair and beauty businesses allow it to provide a thriving marketplace of services for its B2C customers across Europe. Treatwell wanted to further understand and deepen these B2B relationships to uncover new opportunities for growth.

What we did

We designed and executed an extensive programme of research, spanning 3 phases, 10 countries and 2 B2B audiences. At every stage of the process, the research methods were tailored to gain the richest possible insight across this broad range of geographies and audiences. We began merging traditional market insight with desk research to help Treatwell understand the market landscape across Europe. Next, we conducted interviews with salon partners to understand more about their needs and expectations of Treatwell. Finally, we harnessed a CATI approach to ascertain the size of the opportunities identified as part of the research.

The impact of the research

Findings from the research have shaped every aspect of Treatwell’s strategy. A rich understanding of its salon partners’ needs has informed everything from the proposition Treatwell offers, right through to the messages it leverages in its comms with this audience.

Kadence has produced an exceptional body of work which plays a crucial part in planning marketing strategies and understanding the opportunities for our business as we continue to grow. We couldn’t ask for a better partner; they provided true expertise, valuable insights and commitment to quality across each project.

The challenge

With over 2,700 journalists and analysts across 120 countries, Bloomberg is one of the world’s largest news organisations, providing global business leaders with the information and analysis required to win in today’s complex marketplace. In the wake of unprecedented global uncertainty, Bloomberg wanted to help its readers navigate the path ahead, by shedding light on how their peers were responding to the pandemic.

What we did

We spoke to over 700 business decision makers in 6 markets (Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia, Hong Kong, Japan and Australia) to understand the shift in their priorities, exploring everything from top concerns and challenges right through to attitudes towards business travel and expectations from brands.

To bring this to life for Bloomberg and its readers, we produced an engaging infographic highlighting the key findings with the help of our in-house design and data visualisation team.

The impact of the research

The research has allowed Bloomberg to provide valuable insight to its readers about how business decision makers priorities are evolving at this critical time. As the first of 3 waves of research on this topic, we’ll be able to track changes in attitudes and behaviours over time to help business leaders understand and react to the changing situation.
