Research

Position
Scope defines one market hypothesis, offer, proof set, channel test and CRM learning loop. Festival-led search demand can crowd out B2B intent or imply access to independent institutions. Capture city district, cultural or industrial context, audience or technical need, institutional boundary, schedule, decision stage and named purchaser; then connect cultural prominence with Stratford's less-visible industrial and technology economy.
Launch
Existing sales and campaign tools remain unless they prevent clean attribution or timely follow-up. Direct the Stratford record to the commercial lead aligned with its cultural or industrial purpose. Measure intent clarity, sector specificity, institution separation, prompt ownership, qualified movement and visitor noise.
