Mintel and Meta’s collaboration to create the Global Society & Lifestyle Study demonstrates the value of combining social listening data and consumer survey research. Meta identified key trends using more than six million unique conversation topics from their social media platforms, which were expanded upon with a global consumer research study. Ultimately, by capturing key consumer attitudes in both direct and adjacent areas of interest, Mintel and Meta identified common consumer sentiments that spanned several predetermined macro-themes.
