CUSTOM-MADE SURVEY

Once the goals were set, we created a custom-made survey completely compatible on all devices and shared it on social networks. 8 advertisements and 32 questions were created to target the specific goals of Groupe Mach.

With this methodology, we were able to maintain an extremely low margin of error, allowing us to deliver reliable and precise results. The campaign faced massive support throughout local citizens. Respondents were enthusiastically awaiting the arrival of a new mall in their neighbourhood.

Key figures from the campaign:

Now that this survey data has been interpreted via the participants’ socio-demographic profiles, it would be beneficial to reanalyze the answers in a new light, though this time in relation to problematics.

The project is inciting a lot of interest and there are multiple negotiations in progress for leasing new commercial spaces. 
Sylvie Rousseau, Head of Marketing, Groupe Mach.

Positive implications :

• The Carignan population and its surrounding areas engaged with the campaign on an impressive level and helped define the local commercial offering.
• Press releases - see the article in the local press.
• 2 banners popular amongst participants are opening:
