B2B Research Agency - Bespoke Market Research - FOTP Research

Author: Damon Paul

Finger on the Pulse Research (FOTP) is a B2B research agency that specialise in gathering feedback from key stakeholder groups, in particular, Customers, Suppliers and Employees, by developing and conducting bespoke market research surveys.

These three stakeholder groups are fundamental to the success of any business, yet how often do companies obtain feedback from them, to understand their perceptions of your business, in particular what you do well and what you could improve.

Whether during "normal" times or times of crisis, timely, objective and actionable insights generated through research projects enable businesses to maintain a competitive edge and keep close to the needs of their key stakeholders.

Conducting Customer Satisfaction Research

As a key Stakeholder Group, your Customers generate the revenue that drives your business forward. To do this successfully, it’s vital to understand and take into account the views/feedback of your customers when making commercial decisions and developing future strategy. Conscious of the maxim that ‘you shouldn’t mark your own homework’, engaging FOTP Research, a specialist B2B research company, as an independent third party to work with you, is the best way forward.

Conducting Supplier Satisfaction Research

As a key Stakeholder Group, your Suppliers are crucial in enabling you to develop the products/services to better meet your customers’ requirements. Suppliers can range anywhere from Transactional to Strategic, from Exclusive to Shared and more and more frequently are being considered pivotal to enable a company to deliver its business plans. Given the growing importance of suppliers, it is becoming increasingly relevant to understand their views and gather their feedback. In an increasingly competitive environment, to have strong, positive, collaborative relationships with your key suppliers is becoming a strategic imperative and key competitive advantage. Suppliers often have choices: who they work with, who they invest with, who they chose to develop strategic relationships with.

The most successful companies often have the most successful supplier relationships with strong supplier engagement. But how do you know how successful your supplier relationships are, without some form of measurement.

Conducting Employee Engagement Research

Employees and their performance are crucial to the overall success of your company. It’s essential to make sure that your workforce is engaged with and aligned to your strategy – engaged colleagues lead directly to improved performance for your business.

In addition to ensuring your teams have all the tools they need to do the job and are having regular 1:1’s with their line managers, engaging an independent third party such as Finger on the Pulse Research, to undertake a regular Employee Engagement Survey will enable you to understand and measure the level of employee commitment, engagement, motivation, but also how they feel about the strategic direction of the business and whether they’d recommend others to work for the company.

All this needs to be measured to ensure your business and your whole workforce are pulling in the same direction and working together to deliver strong performance and growth. This is where Finger on the Pulse Research come in.
