Understanding your current situation through a baseline measurement

Our approach focuses not only on gaining insight, but also on strengthening the relationship with your customers and target group. This forms the basis for working with you to make improvements and achieve tangible results. See how we perform a baseline measurement here.

A Markteffect Baseline Measurement Study

To obtain a clear picture of your performance, it is essential to make a fair comparison. This is only possible if you assess both the situation before and after the marketing campaign. The results of a baseline measurement provide a solid foundation and give you insight into the areas within your company where improvement is possible. The baseline measurement can also be used to optimize your future marketing efforts.

How is a baseline measurement performed?

At Markteffect, baseline measurements are always customized. In advance, the specific components to be mapped out are carefully determined with you. In most cases, the baseline measurement is conducted using quantitative research, via an online questionnaire. The outcomes of quantitative research are based on hard figures and percentages, making it the appropriate method when representative answers and factual substantiations are required.

However, it also happens that organizations do not know exactly who their most important competitors are in the eyes of the target group, or which associations, wishes, and needs are most relevant. In such a situation, it may be decided to start with exploratoryqualitative research, for example in the form of in-depth interviews or an online community.

Once all data has been collected and analyzed, our Research Experts will start drafting the report. The report can be fully tailored to the client's wishes: in the form of data files, an advisory report, or a dynamic dashboard. Finally, the results, insights, and recommendations will be presented to you during an extensive feedback session.
