Case Studies

Minesights Case Study

Our client sought to introduce the next generation of a successful product to excite and motivate more buyers. The qualitative meta-analysis involved analysis of research reports, category reviews, output from idea generation sessions, as well as what turned out to be a goldmine of information—transcripts from the company’s 1-800 customer care line and its customer e-mail files. It was extremely valuable information that had been ignored because there was neither the time nor staff available to review it.

BoardTalk® Case Study

To improve its teacher education program on disaster preparedness, the American Red Cross needed to speak to teachers across the country who had experience with the curriculum materials.

Enter Doyle Research’s BoardTalk bulletin board focus group discussions.
