There are literally hundreds of thousands of social conversations going on about specific brands and their category. 113 Industries has revolutionized how companies can discover insights from these social conversations that traditional research methods can’t match. 113 Industries extracts these insights by combining Natural Language Processing, Artificial Intelligence, and IBM Watson with its proprietary processes and expert minds. Yes, a few companies provide social conversation data, but no company has been able to extract and leverage the most meaningful insights as 113 has proven over and over again. 40 of the top Fortune 500 companies have already benefited from the power of our research. We’re talking about Coca Cola, Ocean Spray, StarKist, Kraft Heinz, Ocean Spray, Toyota, Hershey’s, J&J, Keurig, Meijer, UPMC, and Smuckers to name a few. Some have launched $50MM+ new products from the insights, while others have accelerated the existing brands’ growth or evaluated potential acquisitions. All are thrilled with the results. But perhaps most telling: most have already hired 113 for new projects. 113 Industries approaches aren’t simply incremental; they have become a necessity for companies seeking a competitive edge.
