Zenzi is excited to announce that it is now part of the Aletheia marketing and media team.

What is values marketing?

It’s not just the products you sell that influence buying behavior—it’s what your company stands for. For marketers, this means that emotional connection and personalization are critical to building loyalty and awareness.

Now more than ever, understanding and identifying the core motivations that drive loyalty and consumer purchasing behavior is key. Values marketing research is a tool that helps us identify and understand what causes people in today’s day and age to make the decisions they make when it comes to picking a brand they stand behind.

What We Do

Values Research

Research shows that people want to purchase from brands that fill a profound psychological need in their lives. But how do you create that connection?

Zenzi tailors research to each brand by creating customized surveys, using existing data and ValueBase® to create questions targeting specific demographics. We also use social listening to understand how your brand is faring versus the competition. After analyzing the data, we create custom presentations that offer key insights on improving customer satisfaction. AcrobatAnt, our sister agency, creates content to execute our marketing recommendations.
