‘Thank you to you and all the team for your work on this and the whole project. The insights are so valuable and really reinforce everything we have been working on. They’ve given us real clarity on our membership strategy and will help us concentrate our actions in the most worthwhile places. The segmentation approach, in particular, has been incredibly useful in shaping how we communicate and engage going forward.’

“Having worked with trueology on several projects, we knew that their team had extensive experience of using sophisticated research techniques to uncover membership insights. From day one, they have genuinely worked in partnership with us, and are widely considered as an extension of our team.
They quickly grasped our strategic change objectives and were able to outline clear and well-thought through steps to help us achieve our goals. Their work has played a critical role in our strategic change programme – and will continue to do so over the coming years.”

"Having previously worked with the trueology team whilst at CAMRA, their membership know-how made them an obvious choice to be invited to tender when I joined the Royal College of Physicians.
trueology’s expertise in analysis and segmentation coupled with their ‘can-do’ attitude has given us real insights in to understanding our membership base which will see the college flourish and grow!"

“After seeing the analysis that trueology produced from our membership base, we were keen to use their expertise to help us inform and shape our Education, Learning and CPD offerings. Trueology undertook a series of in-depth focus groups around the UK which led to some extremely invaluable findings. The trueology team translated these findings in to realistic recommendations, which are the building blocks to help us really understand our audience and shape the future of our product development.”
– Julia Kettlewell, Deputy Director of Education, Strategy and Business Development, the Royal College of Physicians
