Building momentum
In 2023, a leading professional services firm sought to deepen relationships with C-suite executives and position itself as a market leader in addressing global challenges. Despite having a long-standing annual survey, the firm aimed to revitalize its approach to deliver more meaningful insights and drive strategic conversations with clients in a rapidly changing environment.
Our engagement
We partnered with the firm to transform its flagship thought leadership survey into a powerful tool to engage clients and drive strategic insight. Key components of the strategy included:
- Collaborating with academics and internal experts to refine survey questions, ensuring impactful results and the ability to benchmark against previous years.
- Running a six-month marketing campaign, using data analysis to provide sector and region-specific insights, and creating customized reports for targeted clients.
- Developing internal tools to empower client-facing teams to generate tailored reports supporting client engagement.
Key outcomes
The revitalized thought leadership survey set a new standard for client engagement, with significant global response, driving sustainable growth in a competitive market.
- A landmark 4,702 executives completed the 2024 survey across 105 countries.
- Over 100 media outlets covered the launch.
- $17.1 million pipeline in the first month from the firm’s top 15 clients.
The success not only strengthened existing relationships but also reinforced the firm’s reputation as a leader in delivering innovative, client-centric insights.
