Enterprise

Comprehensive research for large organisations. Stay ahead and lead the category.

Enterprise research is a different discipline as the decision stakes are higher, the organisations are more complex, and the decisions ripple across 1000s of employees, millions of customers, and significant capital commitments. You don't need a research vendor, you need a research partner who can hold the complexity, navigate the politics, and deliver insights that translate into action across business units and geographies.

Scale Research works with enterprises on the strategic questions that shape brand, marketing, media, behavioural strategy, and customer-first transformation. We've delivered 1,500+ projects, conducted research in 25+ countries, and can survey audiences across 80+ countries worldwide. Many Fortune 500 companies trust us with both their high-profile work and their most sensitive internal questions.

Common questions we help mid market businesses answer:

  • How is our brand really perceived, and how does that compare to our competitors?

  • Which customer and non-customer segments represent the biggest growth opportunity?

  • Are our marketing campaigns and media investments actually driving ROI?

  • How do we apply behavioural science to lift conversion, retention and loyalty at scale?

  • What does our end-to-end customer experience look like, and where are we losing share?

  • How effective is our executive leadership, and how does our culture compare globally?

  • How do we drive the #customer-first thinking across 1000s of employees, across business units?

  • What will the category look like in three years, and how do we lead it rather than react to it?

Where we help

Behavioural, attitudinal, and needs-based segmentation that lets you prioritise high-value audiences, sharpen targeting, and inform decisions across product, pricing, and messaging. We segment both current customers, and customers of tomorrow (because that's where growth lives).

Customer and non-customer segmentation

Continuous monitoring of awareness, perception, and competitive positioning. We track the shifts in sentiment that precede the shifts in market share, so you can act before the trend becomes a problem.

Brand health tracking

Pre vs Post and/or Test vs Control Campaign evaluation across recall, message clarity, brand impact, and conversion. We measure what your campaigns actually deliver, not what Brand Lift data suggests.

Advertising and campaign effectiveness

How do customers discover, evaluate, and buy your products? We map the decision journey across channels and identify the moments where you win or lose the sale.

Shopper and path-to-purchase insights

Price elasticity, promotional response, and consumer reaction to discounts and incentives. We help you optimise pricing strategies and avoid the margin erosion of over-promotion.

Pricing and promotional impact analysis

Test messaging, creative, and ad formats before they go live, so the campaigns that reach market are already optimised.

Campaign testing and pre-launch validation

Measure short-term and long-term impact across brand perception, recall, and conversion. We separate signal from noise in the post-campaign read.

Ad effectiveness and ROI analysis

Behavioural, attitudinal, and needs-based segmentation that lets you deliver tailored experiences instead of one-size-fits-all. We help you prioritise the segments that drive the most lifetime value.

Social listening and sentiment analysis

Which channels are driving the highest impact? We analyse cross-channel performance and recommend reallocations that improve return on ad spend.

Multi-channel attribution and media mix modelling

Demographic, psychographic, and behavioural data combined into actionable targeting strategies for the platforms you actually buy on.

Audience targeting and behavioural insights

How does your media performance compare? We can benchmark against direct competitors and category leaders so you know where you stand and where to push.

Competitor benchmarking

How do you structure choices to guide customers toward desired actions, without restricting their freedom to choose? How do social cues shape decisions, and how do you use them ethically and effectively?

Choice architecture and decision framing

Subtle interventions that shift behaviour at scale — from communications and forms to product onboarding and pricing pages.

Nudging strategies

What triggers repeat behaviour? We identify the cues, rewards, and habit loops that build long-term customer stickiness.

Habit formation and loyalty

Hands-on workshops and live testing environments that put leadership teams face-to-face with real customer behaviour. Hugely valuable for resetting strategic assumptions.

Customer immersions and experience labs

Dedicated panels and long-term communities that provide ongoing feedback on products, services, and strategy. The fastest way to operationalise customer-first thinking.

Customer councils and research communities

Setting up AI-powered personas and SegmentBots, AI driven Advt testing and Synthetic Customer panels. Still in its infancy, this is very valuable for testing scenarios in hard-to-reach segments, exploring strategic options at speed, and stress-testing assumptions pre research

Synthetic users and AI-driven research

Which messages and visuals drive engagement? We test copy, creative assets, and brand expressions to refine positioning before you commit budget.

Marketing message and creative testing

Enterprises typically work with us across the full breadth of these capabilities. We scope each engagement to the specific decision in front of you — not a fixed deliverable.
