Case study
Creating the best brand for the customer
Business challenge
- The brand aims to position itself as a high quality, high class and innovative one.
- They aim to deliver excellent service to their retailers and become their preferred supplier.
- They want to offer the best product portfolio in the market to their retailers.
...
Business needs
- How well does the brand perform amidst its competitors?
- How strong is the supplier-customer relationship?
- How do retailers experience the customer’s products, service culture, touch points and processes?
- Which new products should be added to the portfolio?
b²sense approach
- Bearing in mind the width of this survey, covering branding, customer experience and innovation, we needed to come up with a questionnaire integrating all 3 pillars within a 20 minutes-timeframe so that the very business retailers would not be bothered too much.
- We covered the most important markets, i.e. Belgium, France, Germany and the Netherlands in order to cover most of the revenue.
- We conducted 100 phone interviews among on- and off-line retailers from our multi-lingual call center using native speakers.
Outcome
- The insights revealed the gaps between internal and external reality.
- Leverage and improvement areas were identified and management developed a strategy for the future in terms of positioning, communication, touch point- and process organisation and product portfolio.
