Report!</a></p>  <p style="text-align: left;" dir="ltr">The Forrester New Wave™: AI-Enabled Consumer Intelligence Report identified and evaluated nine consumer intelligence platforms. Out of ten criteria, Talkwalker was designated as a differentiator in five, and was the only platform that wasn’t defined as ‘needing improvement’ in any category. Named a <strong>leader in consumer intelligence</strong>, we earned the highest possible scores in data onboarding, search & insights, analytics & reporting, data regulation, and product vision.</p> <p dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;"><strong>If you'd like to check out the <a href="#Best%20consumer%20intelligence%20tools">consumer intelligence tools</a> first, scoot on down now...</strong><br><i> </i></p> <h2>Listening to consumers?</h2> <p dir="ltr">How do you ensure that consumers walk past your competitors and choose you? </p> <p dir="ltr">Consumers are well informed. They check out review sites. Investigate the true value of products. They ignore brand-speak and hard sell techniques. </p> <p dir="ltr">If they’re unhappy with your brand, they’ll tell you. Usually on social media. Announcing to the world, their dissatisfaction with you. Respond quickly, they're waiting. </p> <p dir="ltr"><i>Voice of the customer... ignore it at your peril.</i> </p> <h2>Data-driven marketing</h2> <p dir="ltr">Consumer intelligence - CI - is all about analyzing data to <strong>get inside your customers’ heads</strong>. To understand them. This'll help you <strong>make better business decisions</strong> about how, when, where, and what to sell them.</p> <p dir="ltr">Tailor your marketing campaigns to <strong>increase your profits</strong>. </p> <p dir="ltr">Consumers no longer judge a brand purely on price. The <a target="_blank" href="https://www.talkwalker.com/blog/customer-experience-metrics" rel="noopener">customer experience</a> is now the dominating decider.</p> <p dir="ltr"><i>You have to meet, no, surpass customer expectations.</i> </p> <p dir="ltr">Consumers drop data online that can be collected and analyzed. This data will give you a greater understanding of their behavior and preferences, aspirations and choices. Brands that understand consumer analytics will remain relevant to their customers. Gaining the competitive advantage in the marketplace.</p> <p dir="ltr">AI-powered digital <a href="#Best%20consumer%20intelligence%20tools">customer intelligence tools</a> analyze consumer data. Identifying patterns and trends so you can <strong>anticipate a consumer’s next step</strong>. What they want, what they need. </p> <p dir="ltr">As a brand, it’s time to move beyond traditional market research. Tracking consumer behavior is the only way to understand what consumers want now, and what they'll want in the future.</p> <p dir="ltr">For instance... the age-old question, "cloth or disposable diapers?"</p> <p dir="ltr"><i>Nappies, for those who've no clue what a diaper is.</i></p> <p dir="ltr">Taking a look at social media, it's clear that this question is again being asked.
