Making brand health measurable

Tracksuit set out to make brand tracking more accessible to businesses that could not justify traditional research programmes. Its platform presents measures such as awareness, consideration and preference in a more continuous, visual format. That focus puts the company at the intersection of software, market research and marketing decision-making.

A product designed for a wider market

A simpler interface can make research easier to use, but it does not remove the need to understand methodology. Businesses still need to know who was surveyed, how often, how representative the sample is and what changes are statistically meaningful. The value of a dashboard depends on the quality of the underlying data.

The founders and the next stage

Connor Archbold and Matt Herbert are named in the supplied brief as Tracksuit’s founders.
