Rachel Havers – UK Small & medium Business Team Manager

Background

As an independent agency, TRKR work with NielsenIQ, Worldpanel by Numerator, North Star, Circana and Loyalty Card data for our clients

We advise our clients on what data they need, usually a combination, and source it for them, or negotiate on their behalf

More importantly, TRKR empowers clients to unlock the full potential of combining their PANEL & EPOS data, analysing it and creating valuable reports/insights for both internal use and presentations to retail buyers

A key part of our success is our dynamic collaboration with data providers. NielsenIQ has witnessed the incredible value TRKR brings to their clients, recognising that our expertise makes their data even more impactful for brands that may lack the time and in-house expertise to manage and build retailer pitches

As a result, NielsenIQ invited TRKR to become a Connected Partner, making us one of only two consultancies in the UK to receive this distinction
