STRAT7 Buys Customer Consultancy Rainmakers CSI

Global insight and customer analytics group STRAT7 has acquired UK-based strategy, insight and planning consultancy Rainmakers CSI for an undisclosed sum. The company will be integrated into Incite, which STRAT7 acquired in 2021.

Launched in 2007, and specialising in delivering profitable growth strategies based on insight, Rainmakers CSI provides consultancy services to B2B and B2C clients spanning a range of sectors, including financial services, FMCG, healthcare, and media and entertainment. More than half of the company's work originates in the US.

STRAT7 says the buy will strengthen its position in the US market, and allows it to expand its global services and offer Rainmakers' consulting capabilities to its existing clients. Meanwhile Rainmakers' clients will gain access to STRAT7's technology, data and insight solutions globally.

STRAT7 CEO Barrie Brien (pictured above) says Rainmakers' commitment to providing commercial results for clients, delivered through focused, agile client teams, fully aligns with STRAT7 Incite's core values. Colin Buckingham (below), CEO of Rainmakers, adds: 'Being part of STRAT7 gives us the opportunity to scale our own proposition, bring greater value to our clients, offer exciting new opportunities to our people, and expand our business. We will gain access to STRAT7's extensive range of technology-powered data and insight solutions, their fantastic client base, and their global capabilities'.
