Marketing Research Moderator & Interviewer - www.thinktanknyc.com

"We work in the dark, we do what we can, we have what we have.
Our doubt is our passion and our passion is our task.
The rest is the madness of art!"--Henry James

"And remember Steve - don't talk to strangers!"–-mom (growing up) LOL

I am Italian American, from a large extended family and family re-unions were always a lot of fun, like the circus came to town — too many people, with strong opinions, talking way too loud and all at once, in different languages, eating lots of food and sugary sweets, drinking espresso and homemade wine, laughing, arguing, music, singing — all in abundance. A deliciously rich training ground, it was here I first picked up my tape recorder and camera to capture the events around me.

Now, I am a dynamic focus group moderator with extensive experience working with independent moderators, Fortune 100 companies, ad agencies, and clients worldwide in qualitative research, public opinion gathering, and consumer testing. For the development of advertising, products, and services, I speak with business professionals and everyday consumers in focus groups and individually in the following areas: technology, entertainment, travel, consumer goods and services, food/beverages, health, fashion and beauty.

As a moderator and interviewer, I integrate my strong documentary filmmaking, corporate communications, and interviewing experiences. and approach this work with that same curious nature, open mind, and inquiring sensibility. I creatively encourage consumers to think deeper and differently. After revealing this thinking, I deliver these inspiring ideas, this consumer truth to my clients to help them address and navigate marketing challenges with courage and to help them successfully align their companies for success by integrating consumer insights with marketing objectives.

I strive to consistently deliver strong, memorable work supported by solid integrity and creativity. This is what I enjoy. This is what I do well. I look forward to bringing all the strength of my experience to you and working together with you to build a stronger brand!

Hi Simon - although the seemingly endless tales of "delayed" or "put off" have become the easy battle cry, it is surely a time of rethinking methodology and approach when it comes to research. Not only from the end client side but also from our si...
