Essential Steps to Launching a New Brand Successfully

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.

The Ruby team worked in partnership with the mycar marketing and leadership team to undertake a large qualitative and quantitative segmentation and customer satisfaction study in the middle of the pandemic, which played an integral role in the relaunch of the mycar brand and its overall strategic direction. Ruby Cha Cha were able to pivot quickly, think creatively and apply skill and clever thinking to ensure mycar got the strategic insights that would drive effective decision making. We now view the segmentation as a living, breathing document referred to everyday at mycar.

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.

Ruby Cha Cha went above and beyond for our research project. We were restricted by a very tight timeframe – but the project was completed on time and the results were more than we could have asked for. We were able to gain valuable insights into our members and their needs and wants. We have no hesitation in recommending Ruby Cha Cha to anyone and will definitely use them again.

We had a tight time frame and you delivered, and the results are so powerful and will go a long way to helping us form our future endeavours.

Ruby Cha Cha is an innovative and highly collaborative agency that customised their approach based on our needs & budget. They challenge the status quo & exceeded our expectations at every turn.

We’ve worked with Ruby Cha Cha for more than 10 years, and what keeps us coming back is their ability to get beyond the research and understand what really matters to our business. Over that time, they’ve become far more than an external research agency. They feel like a genuine extension of our team. We trust them with our toughest questions, knowing they’ll bring not only deep experience but also fresh thinking and a perspective.

What sets Ruby Cha Cha apart is their rare combination of rigorous thinking, commercial instinct and genuine curiosity. They don’t simply present data or tell us what consumers said, they help us understand what it means for our business, challenge our assumptions when needed, and turn insights into clear, actionable recommendations. Their work has influenced many of our most important decisions over the years, making them a trusted and valued partner in our growth journey.

Aside from wanting to share how successful the metro masthead brand campaign “We’re For You” has been – we are seeing great awareness and positive impact on the brand perceptions and consideration – which Ruby Cha Cha were instrumental in getting over the line.

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!

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!

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.

Ruby Cha Cha is our research partner for all strategic work. Highly recommend them, due to their insightful and actionable recommendations and true partnership style. Their opinion is well respected in the business I work in from the CEO down.

I have worked with Ruby Cha Cha for over a decade. I always find that they work hard to get to the nub of the issues and come up with insightful actionable outputs. They think outside of the box and design innovative approaches and they bring stakeholders along on the research journey, instilling confidence and understanding. A recent study on Bushfires that they conducted highlighted their flexibility and ability to refocus in light of challenging circumstances. The resulting report was to the usual exceptional standard and was part of a submission to a Royal Commission. I would recommend Ruby Cha Cha to anyone who is seeking rigorous research that produces actionable outcomes.
