"Marketing-based research and research-based marketing"

I am a marketer in the research business. All research is designed, implemented and analyzed from a marketing perspective. All marketing consulting comes from a research basis.

Founded in 1995, at which time I was Sr. Vice President--Client Services for MATRIXX Marketing--Research Division (a Cincinnati Bell company now known as Convergys).

I started out simply handling all of my old MATRIXX clients in the same way as before, eventually moving into more and more new clients and subcontracting services that I choose not to handle.

The company has grown, and I tend to get all of my new business through referrals--people with whom I have worked over my career, satisfied clients who leave one company and move to another, and "clearing house" clients such as ad agencies who use my services for more than one of their clients.

We recruit participants for the following types of projects:

• Third Party Focus Groups
• One-on-One In-Depth Interviews
• Central Location Studies

We can also handle projects requiring large-scale testing and interviewing facilities.

We also employ and have on hand a trained group of mystery shoppers and we also have staff trained in conducting:

• In-Store Demonstrations
• Intercept Interviews
• Taste Tests

We also engage in the following research studies and related activities:

• Attitudinal Studies
• Benchmarking
• Political & Social Polling
• Brand Equity & Related Studies
• Satisfaction Studies
• Concept Testing
• Segmentation
• Strategic Planning
• Mail Surveys
• Multi Lingual Interviewing
• Test Markets
• New Product Testing
