The Westmead Institute of Medical Research (WIMR) needed to position itself as a smart investment for a variety of donors, funding bodies and other entities.
It also needed to create a clear & engaging purpose that is differentiated, meaningful and inspiring to internal and external stakeholders.
We had to start with understanding the brand purpose – why does WIMR exist? And how can that purpose drive the vision, mission and positioning of the brand to inspire and engage?
Research with internal and external stakeholders provided a background to the challenge but also where to head into the future.
A one day workshop with additional short, targeted workgroups refined and developed the brand tools
WIMR now has the following:
– A clear statement of purpose, vision, and mission
– A comprehensive Brand DNA on a page
– A clear set of values
– A manifesto and elevator pitch for helping with future messaging
We’d would love to discuss how. Enter your details and one of our friendly team members will get back to you.
Ruby Cha Cha is an engaging and experienced team that worked closely with us to define our market research goal and work out the best way to go about achieving it within our timings and budget. Their quantitative work on our NPD concepts exceeded our expectations and has been very beneficial in developing our future brand plans. We will definitely be using Ruby Cha Cha again.
Working with the Ruby Cha Cha team on some of our recent innovation projects has been a pleasure. A key value add the team bring to the innovation process for us is in the way they do the ‘hard yards’ of mining existing information and research for category trends prior to any workshop. This allows subsequent workshops to be much more focused and helps bring all attendees quickly up to speed with what’s going on in any category. For the workshop itself the focus on consumer first is key for us in creating innovation that truly speaks to consumer needs. I would recommend Ellen and her team as a key contact to kick off any innovation process.
Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, Value. Had a fantastic experience conducting focus groups with Ruby Cha Cha. They worked quickly and efficiently to recruit participants on our short timeline. Ellen was an A+ moderator for our groups and ensured quality participation from all. Will absolutely work with them again!
It has been a pleasure to work with Ruby Cha Cha on this project, we had a great deal we wanted to delve into with our research including brand, customer and category and RCC were instrumental in guiding that process and adjusting to ensure we got the best insights from both the qualitative and quantitative research.
We have received some valuable insights through the project that will not only guide our brand moving forward but also allow us to implement improvements across the business that will ensure we uphold the great customer experience we pride ourselves on at Oz Lotteries.
I found choosing the right research partner for our business’ needs to be challenging as there’s a lot of choice out there. I wanted an agency who would understand our business needs, our budgets and importantly, the broader FMCG consumer & shopper. Ruby Cha Cha was recommended to me by a former colleague and after our first meeting I knew the project would be in safe hands with them.
The Ruby team helped us evolve the brief and design the research to deliver again our core needs. Ellen and the team had a great natural ease with the groups and shoppers which enabled them to really get to the heart of the key consumer and shopper behaviours we were looking at. The insights we have uncovered from the project have enabled us to build a stronger understanding of our brand and to plan effectively for the future. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend working with the Ruby Cha Cha team.
We consider the team at Ruby like an extension of our own. They understand consumers so well and are real experts in delivering insights and understanding not just consumer verbatims
We can always rely on the Ruby team for strong strategic thinking, fresh thinking in research approaches and high quality debrief material. I would really recommend working with the Ruby business if you want to unlock fresh consumer understanding …and of course they are also a lot of fun!
From a design company’s perspective, Ruby Cha Cha’s report is a refreshingly clear and ‘visual’ document. Over the years I’ve seen lots of good research reports that are strong on intellectual rigour and insights but short on the sort of reference to help everyone share the same interpretation of the results. The visual approach in this report is a great benchmark setting and team alignment way to present the results. And speaking from a design perspective, makes interpreting how the results might influence the way the brand looks, feels and behaves, much easier.
The team at Ruby Cha Cha were professional and efficient. Their advice on the methodology of the project added great value and I really appreciated their expertise. Great insights and valuable information that’s really helping to guide our next steps; I’d be delighted to work with them again! Thank you!
Excellent, thoughtful and well-presented insight from this boutique, Sydney research agency. Extensive experience of consumers and categories. An engaging, accessible and super-smart team. Highly recommended.
I have been working with the awesome Ruby Cha Cha team for the past 7-8 years now. Ellen & the Ruby team are fantastic to collaborate with, always willing to partner to solve business challenges. The in-office Customer forums they’ve run for us at Uber are shattering one-way mirrors with our customers and driving quicker decision making and employee engagement – highly recommend!
