At ROAST we use an array of both quantitative and qualitative research tools and techniques to uncover category, competitor, consumer and cultural Insights for brands. These Insights feed directly into highly effective digital strategies.

Despite diverse outputs such as audience mosaics, vertical and trend analyses, and specific competitor analyses, our Insights projects consistently deliver against three key operational pillars:

Agile - Our Insights team can pivot to specific business needs, providing quick results with no unnecessary costs. For example, we can take a survey from concept, to design, to distribution, to analysis in a matter of hours.

Accurate - We use behavioural economics, psychology and data science to detect and minimise inaccuracies in survey data. We also consistently reinforce data with findings from ‘honest’ sources such as website metrics, search trends, best-in-market analytics platforms and even our own in-house built tech.

Actionable - Our Insights service has been designed by marketers, for marketers. This means our Insights projects have tangible, actionable outputs which feed directly into media strategy.

  • Market & Trend Analysis
  • Competitor Analysis
  • Audience Segmentation
  • Consumer Profiling
  • Survey Design and Distribution
  • Focus Groups
  • Start-up Strategy
  • International Expansion Strategy
  • Media and Creative Opportunity Mapping

Brands who trust our Insights

ROAST’s Insights team were a pleasure to work with. They were quick to understand our business and were excellent at communicating the rationale behind the research method. They provided us with clearly defined new customer segments which will inform the development of our evolved offering.
Hamid Khan Commercial Director, Mediworld
Saké is a growing but generally unknown category in the UK, and as a new super-premium brand, we were keen to understand the key challenges and opportunities we were facing. We worked alongside ROAST to determine key consumer drivers to help inform our overall brand strategy. ROAST’s audience profiling, in particular, gave us a solid foundation from which to build our brand before launch.
