The Digital Insights Gap

Most brands are sitting on gold - but only digging on the surface.

01

Reactive, not proactive

Digital data used ad-hoc rather than as a continuous intelligence stream.

02

ORM without insight

Monitoring brand mentions without extracting strategic meaning or category signals.

03

Disconnected data

Primary research and digital signals exist in silos - never blended into a unified view.

04

Slow to trend

By the time insights reach decisions, the cultural moment has already passed.

That's the gap StratoIQ closes.

Mind the Insight Gap

"Closing the gap between how organisations buy insights tools - and actually get value from them."

Co-hosted by Shruti Sekhar (Founder, StratoIQ - Mumbai) and Jess Figureiras (Fyreglow - Luxembourg).

Mind the Insight Gap is a podcast about social listening, consumer research, and digital intelligence - and the messy reality of turning all of that into decisions brands actually make.

We bring all sides of the table: agency, platform, and brand. Two contrasting geographies - Mumbai and Luxembourg. And real talk on the elephants in the room: hidden costs of implementation, why tool adoption fails, how to run demos that actually test the right things, and how to build a business case your finance team will defend.

New episodes drop regularly. Whether you're evaluating platforms, scaling an insights function, or trying to get more out of the tools you already have - there's an episode for you.
