LEGACY SPONSOR
Welcome to the second annual
Quirk’s Event! We are excited to have
you here. It’s a sellout – thanks to all
of you! If you are new to the event, you
will quickly notice that it is different
from other research industry gatherings. To keep costs down and make the
event more inclusive, we’ve trimmed or
downsized some standard conference
features such as expensive keynote
speakers and bland luncheons.
We haven’t deemphasized the
features you’ve told us matter most: education and networking. The
center of the event is the expo hall. With 100+ leading companies and
associations from all facets of the industry, the expo hall is a great
place to learn about all of the latest offerings. Make sure you explore
the space, as exhibitors are delivering some great experiences. A complete list of all the experiences can be found starting on page 6.
We also have 85 educational workshops and more than 40 hours of
learning! The sessions cover a wide range of topics and are focused on
providing practical information that you can implement quickly. The
sessions are also just 30 minutes long to ensure that speakers keep their
presentations targeted and concise. All speakers have agreed to the
Q-Mandments – Quirk’s guidelines for presenting an educational and
engaging session. Look for the list of Q-Mandments in each session room.
Lastly, the event is designed with networking opportunities in
mind. The Quirk’s Connect app gives you important event information
and lets you network with all participants at the event. Visit page 62
for more information, or use the QR codes on the cover and page 4.
Morning and afternoon breaks, along with a 90-minute lunch, allow
time to connect with colleagues. Also, join us for Cocktails with Quirk’s
in the expo hall on Tuesday night for tasty appetizers and creative
drinks. Afterwards, keep the evening going with the MR Jam Session
presented by Beta Research Corporation. (Information on all networking events can be found on page 62.)
As with all of our endeavors, we couldn’t have done it without the
support of our sponsors, exhibitors and speakers! Their time and effort
have made this event possible – so our thanks go out to them!
We are proud to announce that in 2017 we will be expanding The
Quirk’s Event to the West Coast. The West Coast show will be in Orange
County in late February with the East Coast event taking place in
mid-March.
We want to make The Quirk’s Event a regular occurrence and a
regular part of your ongoing efforts to learn and grow as marketing research and insights professionals, so please let me know your thoughts
on how we can improve your experience here.
Sincerely,

As marketers and researchers,

can be generated by studying the face.

CAROL SHEA • President, InsightsCentral
In the world of 24/7

greater strategic efforts. Without intention,
many of us insights professionals are killing

USING PSYCHOLOGY AND ANTHROPOLOGY TO
UNDERSTAND LUXURY HOTEL UX
CYNTHIA WEINMAN • Principal, Weinman Schnee Morais
Inc.
ROBERT MORAIS • Principal, Weinman Schnee Morais
Inc.
The owner of numerous
luxury hotel properties
believed that guests feel
a kind of “magic” in their
hotel stay, but needed to
deeply access the guest’s specific experience of the hotel lounge, guest rooms,
food and beverage, guest services and the
atmosphere of a dedicated high-level luxury
floor. Sophisticated psychological and anthropological elicitation and analytical techniques
were used to deliver valuable insights on the
luxury hotel UX.
Since the beginning of modern
marketing, marketers and
market researchers have experienced the frustrations of the
gap between what consumers
say they do/will do and what they actually
do. SABMiller in Latin America applied a
broad scope of insight tools powered by
neuroscience, social psychology and digital
technologies to go beyond declarations and
discover the hidden truth. This presentation outline how to balance those diverse
approaches to best drive tangible business
impact.
ROOM 2
KNOW YOUR HUMANS: MOVING BEYOND
TECHNOLOGY TO CONNECT WITH CONSUMERS
KELLEY STYRING • Principal, InsightFarm
Today’s technology offers
unlimited opportunities to
connect with consumers
on multiple platforms, but
the human brain hasn’t evolved as rapidly as
technology and deep, rich, meaningful connection often remains elusive. Sometimes,
technology itself becomes a barrier. So, how
can we engage consumers more effectively? By undertaking a behavioral science
approach that goes beyond the numbers and
the personas so that we can truly know the
humans.

JENNIFER VAN DE MEULEBROECKE • Vice President, TRC
In the changing health care
landscape, even well-regarded
hospitals like Boston Children’s
Hospital (BCH) rely on a steady
stream of patients with routine
conditions as their main source
of revenue, but competition for
routine care is very tight. BCH wanted to
understand how its stellar reputation of
treating rare conditions translates to routine
care. Moreover, what steps would BCH have
to take to solidify and acquire more of the
routine care market?

its implementation. In order to be a success,
a segmentation should be understood, valued and actionable. This presentation argues
that needs-based segmentations, though sophisticated and hard to copy, can be difficult
to implement. Segmentations based on a
combination of firmographics and behaviors

competitive advantage, while being easier to
put into practice.

GAMIFICATION IS MORE THAN PLAYING GAMES:
INCORPORATING GAMIFICATION MIND-SET INTO
QUALITATIVE RESEARCH
SUSAN FADER • Insight Navigator, Fader & Associates
Gamification’s power goes
beyond just creating actual
games. Its strength lies with
the ability to tap into the gaming
mind-set and expanding gamification utilization across the entire qualitative
process, not just the qualitative session. This
presentation will provide concrete examples
of how gamification can be expanded and
incorporated into all aspects of the qualitative research design and execution.

researchers and humans, we know that behind every data point - and every consumer is a person. A deep curiosity sparked a study
to look at people as people and the results
are thought-provoking.

researcher and client work side-by-side,
allows both teams to go further faster.

Insight, Under Armour
JULIE BROWN • Associate Manager, Consumer Insight,
Under Armour
Under Armour is a rapidly-growing, $4 billion global company
with a consumer insight team of
only five to support vast research
demands. With few resources,
the UA CI team completed over
90 projects in 2015 ranging from
quick turn ad hoc requests to large-scale
strategic priorities. This presentation will
focus on how to get the job done in the new
age, where questions are abundant, time is
limited and resources are scarce.

on how to minimize time to commercialize.
They want to drive fast, fail fast and learn
fast. Listen to how Sonoco was able to

EMOTIONAL SEGMENTATION WITH NONCONSCIOUS MEASUREMENT
ANDERS BENGTSSON • CEO, Protobrand
Unlike traditional research
proposals, mobile market
research requires special
considerations that are
unique to the mode. Researchers beginning
to use mobile in their suite of offerings can
find it difficult to produce a comprehensive
and persuasive proposal that wins over
clients. If this sounds familiar, you’re not
alone! In this informative session we will
cover the nuances of mobile research and
how to account for them in your proposals.
We’ll cover topics like selecting the right
location-based targeting technique, how to
elicit multimedia survey responses and how
to plan in-home usage tests. Take advantage
of SSI’s wealth of mobile research experience to get your mobile proposals at the top
of their game.
This presentation
will showcase how
online metaphor
elicitation can be
embedded into segmentation studies to
achieve emotion-based segmentation. We
know that people buy brands not just for
what they do at a functional level, but also
for what they mean in terms of their symbolic and emotional properties. To illustrate
online metaphor elicitation in segmentation
studies, we will showcase results from a
beer segmentation study. Cheers!

emerging and long-standing brands losing

in is critical and LATAM is a core growth
region for Epson. Epson is staying ahead by
using results from two types of research to
make critical business decisions – strategic
studies that focus on the brand’s image and
key influencers of brand equity and tactile
pricing work that allow the brand to optimize
its product portfolio at prices customers are
willing to pay for. Bringing these two pieces
together, Epson has a deep understanding

RESEARCH IN A BIG DATA-OBSESSED WORLD
ERIC WHIPKEY • Asst. Mgr Member Satisfaction and
Experience Metrics, Navy Federal Credit Union
Big data is here and the
survey is going the way of
the dinosaur - or so says the
business press and many
researchers (both client and
supply side). Despite the nay-saying, when
it comes to customer experience measurement, is there still room for old school blended research approaches? This presentation
will describe why we think there is and how
we revived an old research program and
are preparing to field it using new market
research techniques.

AMIT GHOSH • Senior Vice President, Copernicus

Capturing unfiltered

is critical in decoding
consumer behavior and transforming marketing strategies. We’ll focus on benefits of
gathering consumer data “in the moment”
using our applied neuroscience research
technique, MindSight Mobile®. We will
explore the challenges of traditional research
relying on the consumer’s ability to accurately recall brand experiences of the past.
Insights from emotional experiences “in

deliver enhanced consumer experiences and
brand engagement.
