The brief

The West Midlands Growth Company (WMGC) has a requirement to appoint a sole provider to conduct an annual perception survey / study and provide associated output reporting for the West Midlands region against a series of defined key perception metrics.

This piece of work needs to track progress against a series of key perceptions metrics (i) awareness/familiarity with the region's offer as an investment, business and tourism destination. (ii) positive/negative sentiment about the region's offer and (iii) consideration of the region's offer - i.e. likelihood of recommending, investing in or visiting the West Midlands.

It needs to target the following key audiences (i) domestic and overseas visitors and (ii) key intermediaries that influence investment in the West Midlands - to include investment advisers, business conference organisers, sporting event organisers and travel trade professionals and a range of priority markets.

These will be based on the region's new Internationalisation Strategy and will be agreed with the successful supplier.

It also needs to inform the marcomms strategies and tactics of WMGC and its regional partners- providing insights on the perceived strengths and weaknesses of the region's offer, what our target audiences associate the region and the most effective communication channels.
