Engaging Communities to Support Business Change Initiatives

A Case Study with Sutherland Shire Council
The Context icon

The Context

Sutherland Shire struggles with its citizens’ heavy reliance on motor vehicles. Parking and traffic makes getting around the Shire unpleasant for local residents and visitors alike.

The Challenge icon

The Challenge

Having developed an Integrated Transport Strategy that merges ‘active transport’ (cycling, walking) with public transport and private transport, the Shire needed to find out if citizens would get behind the initiative.

The Journey icon

The Journey

Community consultations were held, providing a rich portrait of residents’ transportation concerns and pain points.
An online survey, was promoted through the Shire’s social media, drew the response from over 700 Shire residents, business owners and frequent visitors.

The Results icon

The Results

The community consultations and survey yielded data that, upon analysis, resulted in actionable insights. This enabled the further shaping of the Integrated Transport Strategy in a manner best-suited to the needs of the local community.

How can you get these results?

We’d would love to discuss how. Enter your details and one of our friendly team members will get back to you.

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.

It has been a pleasure to work with Ruby Cha Cha on this consumer co creation market research project. We had a great deal we wanted to delve into with our research including brand, customer and category and Ruby Cha Cha were instrumental in guiding that process and adjusting to our needs, 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.

Ellen Baron and the Ruby Cha Cha team have worked with me and my team to redefine and reposition the WIMR brand. I have thoroughly enjoyed working with Ellen – her approach is highly professional, engaging, intelligent and collaborative. As a marketing professional and having operated my own consultancy, at the outset I wanted to be sure that the rigour and strategic approach to the project would be exemplary, and would deliver great results. Ellen has gone above and beyond in working with us, navigating a complex organisation and diverse stakeholders. Ellen is focussed, pragmatic, highly experienced and she brings a sense of humour and fresh, dynamic perspective. Ellen is passionate about her work – she truly invests and cares about her work and her clients. I am delighted with the strategic outcomes, and I know we will continue to collaborate on projects into the future. Thank you Ellen for your considered, strategic and insightful approach.

The Ruby Cha Cha qualitative research debrief was very well received by the Corporate Segment Committee this morning – 10 Trans-Tasman Corporate shakers and movers. There were insightful questions and comments, and engagement was strong with people coming forward to get closer at the innovative research. One said it was “excellent”, and another said, “this analysis is complete, it’s time for action!” Thanks again for the stress-free research experience and high-quality work.

Ruby Cha Cha has enabled us to reach and inform residents who rarely have a voice in decision making … Ruby has explored the challenges posed by rapid growth and constrained budgets and the implications that these realties ultimately have on the customer experience. The Community Stakeholder work was instrumental in better decision making for the council. Their ability to connect with audiences from residents, through to businesses, senior stakeholders and the Councillors was extraordinary.

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.
