We wouldn’t be very good at our jobs if we weren’t all insanely curious. Getting out into the wilds of today’s society, chasing down big ideas, tackling important topics, and hunting for their implications and impact is the stuff we live for.
Take a look at what we’ve found, so far.
We do some of the most interesting market research work for some of the most challenging clients you could ever wish for. We do lots of digging into what is really happening with real people. Take a look at some of our recent projects.
Insight seekers, if a consumer insight is shared with a client and it doesn't have an impact, is it truly an insight? We'd say no.

All the people out there we want to understand and serve better.

And we work to understand people, segments, and culture and bring them to life for our clients in way that is memorable and impactful.

So, do you miss it? Do you miss having a participant’s cat crawl up on your lap as you’re observing an in-home ethnography? Do you miss having an impromptu analysis session with your moderator to post a full night of IDIs? Do you miss watching a focus group from behind a mirror and witnessing in person people’s gut reactions to a new ad campaign?

The sober curious movement has taken the world by storm, and is only growing in popularity within North America. We wanted to know more about the whys behind this shift … and what people are choosing to sip instead. So we spoke with 25-year-old Hope Woodard about her entrance into the world of the sober curious, and her feelings on the movement.
