Marketing Fandom
Fandom is every brand’s superpower. It’s about the passion and emotional connections people have for the products, entertainment, and sports they love. Some fans spend every waking hour engaging with and talking about the focus of their fandom. Others display fandom in more subtle ways. No matter what types of fans you attract, you need to acknowledge, understand, and nurture them.
Our proprietary research platform fuses billions of datapoints and millions of consumer surveys to get to the heart of what fans think, feel, and behave. Combined, this helps clients identify and engage the fans who matter most to them.
As a truly full-service agency, we are creating the most tech and data-forward research business on the planet, where primary research, AI, and big data work together to solve complex marketing, content, and product development challenges.
Within our suite of offerings, Ad Solutions is powering the Ad Lifecycle. As media consumption shifts, advertisers are challenged to deliver the right advertising and marketing messages to engage and win with audiences who matter most. MarketCast’s Ad Solutions team works across the whole ad lifecycle, from early concepts and storyboard testing through in-market ad and cross-media campaign measurement to make The Big Difference for our clients.

Our Core Values
Curiosity Makes Us Tick
Our love of learning manifests in everything we do – from the surveys we field and the datasets we analyze to the technology we develop. Where others pause, we push forward, uncovering hidden meaning and answers. Always learning, always looking for more.
We Celebrate Wins
Whether its wowing clients with research or solving everyday challenges, we pause to honor great work and everyone who plays a role in it. We acknowledge and recognize great work and hustle that helps deliver the very best outcomes.
Trust is Always Trending
Trust means everything to us. It’s lending a hand when deadlines loom, always delivering on the promises we make, and calling out behavior that harms our culture. And our client’s trust is what makes all this possible, something we never take for granted.
We Roll with Change
We embrace change as an opportunity to learn, grow, and further develop. We do this by challenging our biases and rethinking how things have always been done in the past. This fresh, open-minded approach keeps us agile, innovating, and adapting in the face of uncertainty.
Diversity is Our Superpower
Our differences make us stronger. As researchers and data scientists, we have a responsibility to reflect the diverse audiences and communities all around us. Understanding people, opinions and life experiences fuels our insights and deepens our perspectives.
At MarketCast, we don’t just accept difference – we embrace it, support it, and thrive on it for the benefit of our global culture and success.
