Wenn ich spezifische Sektoren untersuche, dann nutze ich dabei üblicherweise die Prognosen aus den Berichten von Mintel. Meiner Erfahrung nach sind diese immer sehr akkurat.
Zudem werden die Themen in ihren Berichten äußerst umfangreich und ausführlich abgedeckt. Sie sind wirklich sehr detailliert. So konnten wir zum Beispiel mit nur einem Bericht Erkenntnisse zu einer Vielzahl von Geschäftsbereichen gewinnen. Das zeigt sehr gut, dass Mintel ein hervorragendes Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis bietet.
Das Maß an Detailgenauigkeit und die Qualität der Prognosen sind für mich die Dinge, die wirklich einzigartig sind.

TANVIR HANNAN, SVP DIRECTOR OF STRATEGIC RESEARCH AND ANALYTICS, Publicis DE
Eine unserer größten Herausforderungen besteht darin, uns binnen kürzester Zeit im Detail über ein Geschäft oder eine Kategorie zu informieren.
Wir haben es mit Kunden zu tun, die ihre Kategorie jeden Tag leben und atmen und von uns erwarten, dass wir uns sehr schnell einarbeiten und ihnen die Denkanstöße bieten, die für sie hilfreich sind.
Oft muss dies innerhalb von wenigen Tagen geschehen – eine anspruchsvolle Aufgabe. Mintel bietet uns einen sehr klaren und verständlichen Blick auf die in einer Kategorie herrschenden Bedingungen – und das so schnell, wie wir es brauchen.
