How we help
Uncover the hidden patterns behind consumer decisions with our expert customer behaviour research. At Turquoise, we turn complex behavioural data into clear, actionable strategies that fuel growth, improve customer experiences, and build lasting competitive advantage. We make market research more relevant by transforming customer insight into customer foresight. This helps clients make truly forward-thinking decisions.
Consumer behaviour analysis explores how and why people engage with brands and make purchasing decisions at every stage of their journey. We go beyond basic demographics to reveal the psychological, social, and contextual factors that truly shape consumer behaviour in the marketplace.
Our research identifies:
Why customers choose specific products or services
How decision-making varies between customer groups
What prompts brand switching or disengagement
Which touchpoints build emotional connection with your brand
How emerging trends are reshaping customer expectations

We are able to provide insights that help you anticipate customer needs, optimise marketing strategies, and design superior customer experiences that drive sustainable business growth.

At Turquoise, we do more than just collect data. We employ a multi-method approach to ensure a comprehensive understanding of customer behaviour. With our Triple Nexus Model, you can gain a deeper overview of your customers from all angles. Here’s an overview of how our approach works:
Our methodology incorporates dimensional contextual analysis, dramatically improving insight validity compared to conventional three-point verification approaches. This comprehensive framework establishes the foundation for anticipatory analytics, transforming current observations into future predictions.
Strategically implemented across high-value research phases, our selective deployment of advanced machine learning algorithms continuously optimises each stage of our investigation process, complementing traditional data enrichment techniques.This approach not only generates scientifically robust conclusions but also enables forward-looking trend analysis, converting present-day insights into tomorrow’s strategic advantage.
Research participants rarely articulate their motivations and actions accurately, making it essential for researchers to identify underlying emotional and psychological influences. Our exclusive analytical framework effectively filters behavioural inconsistencies and substantially enhances interpretation of participant feedback and observational data, creating a foundation for projecting future behavioural patterns with greater accuracy.
