Home / Services / Insights / Trinity Marketing Communications Insights

Testing promotional and educational materials is a vital step in producing top-notch marketing communications.

The path to gathering the quant and/or qual information needed to select and refine communications materials is dictated by a mix of budget, timeline and content—and each brand’s needs and objectives are different.

Communications Materials
Selection & Refinement

To produce high-impact messaging and visuals, a spectrum of different considerations need to be applied at speed, including:

  • Life sciences research expertise across therapeutic area, target audience and global nuance
  • Broad strategic objectives that marketing materials support
  • Cross-functional context to inform and ease implementation
  • Innovative technologies to generate qualitative insights at a quantitative scale, powered by AI to achieve accurate results faster
  • Evaluation for “campaignability”
  • Agency collaboration for actionable insights

Trinity is the only company that offers support across this spectrum with behavioral science integration.

  • Behavioral Science In Action

    Trinity uses a unique behavioral science approach to uncover the subconscious drivers of the “why” and pinpoint true motivators of behavior.

    Rather than relying on the expertise and interpretation of market researchers on the back-end, our team of experts build behavioral science directly into the research framework.

    • Discussion guides and research stimuli are crafted to access latent desires and decision-making processes before rational discussion occurs.
    • This practice allows understanding of how people truly make decisions.

    Trinity operationalizes heuristics and biases into our research strategy, rather than identifying them during analysis.

    • Standard direct questioning sometimes misses nuances and underlying meaning as respondents are telling us the “rational” story behind their preformed unconscious decisions. Approaching the subconscious first establishes the primal mechanisms that are driving decisions.
    • Identifying subconscious motivators and levers that can be pulled through to affect behavioral change is only possible when you methodologically approach the subconscious first.

    This unique approach leads to more robust, data-driven insights, which are mapped against project imperatives. These insights fuel strategic recommendations on how to target and communicate to customers—and ultimately drive revenue to client brands.

    Our insights are more durable because they hinge on subconscious motivators rather than rational explanations (which are likely to change). This durability allows clients to apply insights to other research questions—and Trinity’s size and agility allow us to support large, multi-stream workflows and quickly scale capacity to provide end-to-end support.
