About Becky Mead
Launching new products and innovating in FMCG is least risky when you have the consumer’s voice in your ear constantly. That voice has been in my ear since I was 16. Literally. (I had a part-time job running computer-aided telephone interviews for TNS.)Working with innovation consultants who give you the whole picture as the consumer sees it means you can:1. Push boundaries further2. Take risk out of product launchesPLAY has a long track record of helping FMCG businesses innovate and launch more successfully.Even before a new product is a twinkle in your eye, we can:1. Consult on your innovation strategy. What are your opportunity areas and what should be your goals short-, mid- and long-term?2. Grease your innovation process. There are many ways to be more intelligent, faster and more agile.Behind everything is our philosophy of ensuring the consumer is the loudest voice in the room.That’s why we don’t separate the innovation consultants from the quals and the quants. Being a single team with overlapping skills means insights are never lost in handovers.Our researchers have quant and qual experience. Consumers will never be as tidy as a bar chart, so you need a pragmatic team — expertise in the science paired with a feel for the art of consumer research.Our people’s different skillets mean we can always find the right person for your specific job, and you won’t be passed from consultants to qual to quant and back again.This holistic approach at PLAY is one of our own innovations. It's unlocked extra passion because people love being involved in the whole project.When you work with PLAY, you work with a team that brings more and loves doing it. And I love channelling that energy to help our clients:1. Take the risk out of innovating2.
