Ethnographic

Many times the most valuable information can be gathered by observing people in their own environment. Using tools, such as video diaries, online journaling, immersive interviews or traditional at-home observation, we can capture the raw and in–the-moment perspective to uncover emotional triggers, pain points, unmet needs and real decision factors. We have the experience to collect and understand the raw data and the expertise to turn it into actionable insights.

We conduct traditional ethnographic research where we observe and interact with respondents in their real-life environment. Either in-person or using digital technologies, we can capture respondents in their own environment and understand emotional triggers, pain points, unmet needs, and decision factors. Especially helpful for inputs to customer journeys at the point of decision, conducting unmet needs assessment, customer segment portraits, prescribing decision-making projects and other research where the in-the-moment perspective is needed.
