Listening to untangle
We are passionate about helping to create, rethink, decide, improve and, above all, deliver actionable solutions.
To do this, we research and listen to current or potential customers - whether in B2B or B2C initiatives- as well as opinion formers, influencers, or anyone who can provide valuable insights.
We love to untangle knots.

We are proud to work with, among others, these companies:

We transform doubts & questions into actionable ideas & meaningful insights
At BYEKNOT, we act as a bridge, dedicating our ears, eyes and all our senses to actively listening -broadly and attentively- to people.
We then take what we hear and see to craft meaningful insights and ideas, coming together as an extended team to discuss, reflect, and develop possible solutions.
Create, rethink, act:
Workshops
Working sessions tailored to the needs of each project, designed to spark creativity, identify the biggest opportunities, and collaboratively distill insights.
Flexible approaches,
objective-driven
We harness the full potential of digital strategies
while equally valuing face-to-face and experiential activities.
Our approach —whether through conversation, observation, or engagement—
is tailored to the unique characteristics and challenges of each project.
Focus Groups
Discussion groups led by a moderator, diving deeply into the reasons, emotions, beliefs, and narratives associated with choices and consumption.
They can also be conducted asynchronously, mimicking the dynamics of social media interactions.
In-depth and Ethnografic Interviews
Deep conversations that open a window into the target audience, accompanying them through routines or purchases, allowing observation of their environment, fostering empathy, and experiencing their perspective—often documented through photographic or audiovisual recordings.
Online Surveys
Self-administered questionnaires specially designed to capture responses and opinions—whether through panelists, social media recruitment, or customer database outreach. We use modern software that enables dynamic surveys with complex logic, as well as visual, video, or audio stimuli.
Face to Face Surveys
Surveys administered by an interviewer, enabling contact with specific targets or in particular situations (e.g., intercepting them after a purchase or need of product trial). Data collection is mostly carried out using devices that allow audio recording and geolocation for quality control.
Social Listening
+ Desk Research
Investigating existing content across social networks, public groups, reviews, or search engines; combining these, when available, with materials and insights from past research.
Gathering, connecting the dots, and inspiring action.
Usage Habits
+ Consumption Diaries
We design studies to understand and quantify the usage or consumption habits of specific products or services, as well as more complex behaviors like media consumption, meal preparation for home use, or personal hygiene routines.
Concept & Product Testing
+ Ideas Screening
Through testing, we uncover the potential of new ideas, innovations, relaunches, or product changes . By analyzing reactions and feedback, we help refine these ideas to maximize their success in the market.
Our approach includes Ideas Screening to evaluate and prioritize early concepts, identifying which have the strongest potential to resonate with target audiences.
Awareness , Consideration,
and Brand Health
We help analyze a brand's performance against its competitive set, identifying key opportunities, drivers, and barriers.
This enables us to outline actionable strategies that support growth and strengthen brand positioning.
Ad Pre-Testing
We evaluate the potential of different creative routes based on the defined objectives, focusing on key dimensions such as capturing attention, fostering engagement, and assessing persuasive potential.
Shopper / Purchase Habits
Understanding shopping channels, reasons for choice, shopping missions, category planning, brand preferences, and levels of impulsiveness.
We also analyze the impact of promotions and touchpoints along the complexity of the path to purchase.

We are the BYEKNOT leaders,
supported by a talented team of outstanding professionals.
