Insight isn't just data or findings — it's a deep, intuitive understanding of people. And too often, agencies confuse the two.

At Breakaway Strategy, we design research that actually delivers insight — not just information. Our team of experienced researchers and strategists combine qualitative and quantitative research, social listening, and behavioral data to help you truly understand your customers, audiences, and stakeholders.

We partner with brands to explore, validate, and optimize strategies — so you can make smarter decisions today and drive long-term success tomorrow.

Research Rectangulation: Helping brands and their partners build on great ideas requires creative research.

We believe market research should always help you gain a deeper understanding of the group you're speaking with. There isn't always one way to answer your questions; it's important to look at your challenges from many angles to ensure we understand both their behaviors as well as what motivates them. Therefore, we always design custom approaches built around the client's challenges.
