                                                                  Deutsch logo

                                                                  One of the biggest challenges we face is the need to get smart on a business or category real quick.

                                                                  We are talking to clients who live and breathe their category every day and the expectation is that we will be able to get caught up very quickly, and bring the thinking that can help them.

                                                                  We need to do that often in a matter of days, so it’s not a small ask. Mintel gives us a very articulate view of category conditions and does so at the speed we need it.

                                                                  Jeff White, Business Development Director, Deutsch
                                                                  Amazon logo

                                                                  Working in a customer-obsessed organization means that data and insights have to be at our fingertips. Mintel’s reports help us support anecdotes with real quantifiable insights. The summary sections (which I really like) helps save time by giving a birds eye view of the content before spending time combing through the pages.

                                                                  Our business review discussions are strengthened by the relevancy of the reports to help us better understand our customers. In addition, the customer service received from the team (especially in crunch periods) makes the process of understanding customer behavior even better.

                                                                  Ngozi Ngonadi-Nkwoji, Senior Marketing Manager, Amazon

                                                                  Mintel is really good for getting a handle on a particular category quickly. If we are working on a new business pitch in an area we don’t have much experience in, it’s a brilliant way to get up to speed with what’s going on, what’s changing and what the key trends are in any category.

                                                                  It’s very rare now that anyone will plough through a 200-page report – that’s why the summaries are really useful. We know they are backed up by a lot of detail, so if you need to go into something in more depth you know the information will be all there for you.

                                                                  Pauline Robson, Managing Partner, Mediacom

                                                                  We use Mintel to inform our thinking and reinforce strategy. If you’re presenting new ideas, it’s essential they are underpinned by robust data and evidence, and clearly rooted in fact.

                                                                  Mintel gives us all that. It’s a great brand and one that is trusted by clients.
