Our study resulted in incredibly powerful findings that will power the next decade of our work.
Custom research study designed by our PhD-led team, including all questions and logic flows, using our proven Stats to Stories™ framework that creates unexpected, valuable discoveries.
National or international participant panel in the language(s) you choose.
Multi-variate analysis of data based on your priority discoveries and insights.
Custom presentation (recorded virtually for your ongoing use) of all findings, including spotlight on key impact stories that media, clients, and audiences will love.
Complete crosstabs file of results, plus training on how to sift and sort the crosstabs to discover even more stories for ongoing content release.
Owning proprietary data is good. But it’s what you do with the data, stories, and insights that will really level up your business.
We train you and your team on our Findings Activation Framework™ — the same system we use for corporate clients. It teaches you how to transform data-backed stories into winning presentations, media coverage, infographics, social media, books, and more.

How long does this take?
Our Fast Findings National Studies™ require 45-60 days to complete. Our more comprehensive Flagship National Studies™ require 90 days.
What does this cost?
How the participants are chosen is a significant factor in research costs. A study of American consumers that mirrors the Census is less expensive than a study only of business leaders, for example. But in general, the investment for our Fast Findings™ national studies starts at approximately $28,000.
Do I need to understand research myself?
Absolutely not! That’s what we’re here to do. We work with FORTUNE 500 companies and individual thought leaders to turn your ideas into research-backed insights.
I have a mailing list. Can I use that for the research?
No. You want your proprietary data to be unassailable, which requires the research to be conducted by random sample, not an existing list of people you know (or who know you). Our studies have a very low margin of error and are weighted to the latest U.S. Census for age, gender, geography, and ethnicity. This is why the media and prominent leaders trust the insights.
How much time should I expect to invest in the study’s creation?
Most clients invest 6 to 8 hours over the course of the study. The study creation process includes virtual strategy meetings and review conversations before the study goes live. When the study is complete, we deliver a Highlighted Findings Presentation and later a Findings Activation Framework™ training. We work virtually, as our clients are all over the globe. But you’re always welcome to come visit us in Austin, Texas. We know where to find great breakfast tacos!
Can you also create white papers, presentations, infographics, and executive reports for me?
Absolutely! Clients who don’t have existing marketing teams often rely on us to create beautifully designed thought leadership assets powered by their research discoveries. This allows them to instantly and accurately message their insights and stories to the world. Let’s talk about what you need, and we’ll put together a custom package and investment options. For most clients we create and design all of their thought leadership assets to match their brand.
Why can’t I just do this myself?
Perhaps you could. But the key to using research to create thought leadership is how you write the questions for maximum story value (which is why our clients are regularly being interviewed by the media). The other critical component is having access to unassailable, random samples of participants, making sure the data is accurate. We’ve also led more than 150 studies, so we’ve learned a few things along the way! We are entirely focused on leading statistically accurate research studies designed to advance important conversations for leaders and thinkers that have a vision to positively impact the world.
Can you conduct the research in another country, or another language?
Definitely. We are a global research firm, and can include participants wherever it makes the most sense for you and your vision. We’ve led studies on four continents in multiple languages for the biggest brands. We can deliver exactly the global study you envision.
