The week this is for

Four moments customers described to us, in the words they used when they described them.
Did it move anything? Put the campaign next to the months around it instead of waiting for the next wave.
What your audience says matters most, and what you are actually associated with. The gap is the work.
Which brand is gaining, on what, and among whom — including the ones that were not on your list.
One figure for brand strength, comparable month to month, and the movement that sits behind it.

The questions customers ask first
Why is our number lower than in our previous tracker?
Because the list is longer. A shortlist tracker shows ten brands; we show every brand in the category — 35 in the Norwegian fundraising list, 65 in the Swedish. People tick eight to ten names whatever you show them, so the same behaviour spreads across more names and every level comes out lower. The method is identical from month to month, so a movement is still a movement.
Compared to what?
The previous month, unless you pick another period. The comparison period is always stated next to the figure, and every figure also sits next to the category and the brands you choose to watch.
Do we need a new study to ask a new question?
Usually not. Answers are stored per respondent, so a new question is normally a new cut of research already collected. If the question was never asked, we say so rather than estimating it.
What does Odyssey not do?
We do not write your positioning — your agency does, and we are the fact base they work from. We do not measure sales effect or return on investment.
How long before we see something?
The category is already measured, so you start with history rather than waiting for a first wave. Norway has been running since January 2025; Denmark and Finland start in autumn 2026.
