Key to your target group

Insights, positioning & strategy

Wouldn’t it be great if your target audience is just as enthusiastic as you are!Maybe you already have a great idea for a brand, product or service, or you are just looking for this. The development of a new marketing proposition demands a lot from you/your organization: not only in terms of time and energy but also in terms of money. In many cases it involves blood, sweat and tears. And then, in the end, it’s nice to be rewarded for this…. But how do you make sure that you strike the right chordwith your target group? That you have found the “hot button” to actuallyset them in motion?

Step one in the development of a successful brand or product is to formulate consumer insights. The ‘hot button’ that is powerful enough to set your target group in motion. In addition, a good consumer insight provides clear focus and direction to the development process.

Consumer insights are often confused with consumer understandings: interesting and valuable insights such as: who is the target group, what makes them tick and why? However, these insights only form the basis for true consumer insights whereby the insights are translated into profound insights into the rational and irrational behavior of the target group...

After all, we humans are very complex beings who often do not even understand of themselves why they do what they do or feel what they feel… If people had listened unquestioningly to the reactions to the idea of a cell phone then it would probably never have been invented… That is why I believe that the development of a successful brand or product always begins with fully understanding the target group:looking for the right chord, the ‘hot button’ that sets them in motion.

A consumer insight is a discovery about your target audience that allows you to make a connection between your brand/product and his or her life and elicits an emotional response like: you totally understand me!”- Mat Shore (Fire Brands).

“If at first the editors had doubts about a "research", at the end they were eager to get to work, so they could process the new insights. In doing so, the report was a real godsend. With each edition this practical "manual" is picked up again so that each episode meets the needs of our "Mick", the benchmark person. "

"As one of the first clients, we particularly enjoyed working with Twinq in a survey of potential students for our programs. The professionalism with which Angela and Ike conducted all phases of the research was impressive. Here are two real professionals. We were also very pleased with the way Twinq empathised with us as a client. Our question was really their question, to which they gave a very good and useful answer. The enthusiasm that both researchers displayed also struck a chord with us, which meant that we, as the client, enjoyed the research very much."

ZPress Young

Research and reposition various magazines for children (1/2)

What can you do when you can' t help yourself? Or if you need confirmation? Right, you call Angela Weghorst of TwinQ. Because you know that she is there for you in word and deed, is very passionate about her work and transforms herself into the target group you are researching.

So it went with MEIDEN (which only increased in circulation after the survey!), but also in the past year with STOER! (formerly known as Kr@sh).

With increasing competition in a tight market, it is difficult to position a magazine in a unique way. And much more importantly, to actually get guys to read it!

Research and reposition various magazines for children (2/2)

Angela got to the bottom of the guys in a super enthusiastic and fun way. If at first the editors had doubts about a "research", "because what should you do with some opinions and collected facts", at the end they were eager to get to work, so they could process the new insights into STOER! The report with the practical BrandKey incorporated in it was a real godsend.

With each edition of STOER! this practical "manual" is picked up again so that each issue meets the needs of our "Mick", the benchmark person. The nice thing is that you also go back to the conversations that Angela had with the target group. Because in addition to work, it was also a lot of fun. We laughed a lot, also about Angela who had more or less changed into Mick after a few weeks. She just didn't have the beard in her throat yet! But she did have that twinkle in her eye! ;-)’

Plus Retail

Research & optimizing winning loyalty campaigns (1/2).

Background:In recent years, the use of loyalty programs in the form of promotional savings campaigns for children has grown enormously. It has now been amply proven that such campaigns can be so successful that they have a strong sales-increasing effect.

The final choice of a promotional item also involves great risk and uncertainty. Plus Retail approached TwinQ to support them in putting together their annual loyalty programme. For this purpose, we used qualitative research to gain a basic understanding of how children's savings campaigns work and we evaluated and optimized existing concept ideas.

Why TwinQ: insights & inspiration

Both myself and the dedicated TwinQ team are doing what our heart desires. This does not only make us happy, it also allows us to do exactly where our strengths lies. In the research underlying my book ‘Anders’, I discovered that the things you love to do are the very things you are good at!

I’m known for always taking that extra mile in order to provide more than just insight. I will not be satisfied until I can offer a clear overview as well as striking the core, the essence. Because right in that core, that essence, lies the answer for real change and growth. And I’m proud to have contributed to countless successful market introductions and personal transformations.
