Headquarters
USA
Background
A multi-product pharmaceutical company, Brand X, with a global footprint, sought to enhance its position in the US market. Following the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the brand encountered two emerging trends within its over-the-counter (OTC) segment: a decline in market share in previously dominant categories and a surge of new brands entering its core and adjacent categories.
The brand aimed to develop a robust positioning strategy to bolster its market presence and introduce new products effectively and rapidly. This initiative necessitated a comprehensive understanding of competitor strengths and customer preferences across all relevant categories.
Major obstacles

Before discovering Clootrack, Brand X faced several critical issues: the market research process was lengthy, taking months, and causing potential delays and missed opportunities. Identifying the right respondents was challenging due to diverse customer demographics across categories, necessitating subject matter experts for effective survey design. Additionally, the post-COVID customer landscape introduced rapid changes and uncertainties, making it difficult for the brand to stay competitive and understand evolving customer expectations.
