SUMMARY:Why Cultural Insight Is Important For Research
DESCRIPTION:  \nThis webinar is generously sponsored by MIS Group \n \n  \nThis webinar will be presented by ICG member Felicia Schwartz\, China Insight. \nIt will explore the crossover between two areas Felicia is active in – cultural insights and market research. Although we often use market research to uncover cultural insight it is interesting to explore whether we shouldn’t integrate culture into the design of research from inception on. Felicia  routinely come across briefs that make assumptions or ask questions that are not culturally right for my region (greater China) or that miss cultural nuance when pulling together the analysis. \nAlthough her examples will all be taken from China\, she hopes others will share other cultural examples so that everyone can think together about integrating cultural nuance into our research projects and about how to make clients more alive to this topic. \nEMAIL HERE TO REGISTER FOR THIS FREE WEBINAR  \n  \nUPDATED LOGIN FOR THE WEBINAR \nJoin Zoom Meeting \nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/89623746113?pwd=NUwvRlE3bWZET05hV3V0UjhGVHhhdz09 \nMeeting ID: 896 2374 6113 \nPasscode: 563055 \n  \nAbout Felicia \n \nFelicia has pursued an international career in branding working for global communication agencies Ogilvy and Dentsu.

SUMMARY:Using video insight to empower small agencies and freelancers. Tools\, tips and tricks for effective and commercial research
DESCRIPTION:This webinar is generously sponsored by Web Creator Suite \n   \n  \nUsing video in the market research world comes in many forms\, and with skills in video varying across researchers and agencies\, Dan and Roseann of The Word Is Out (also ICG members) want to share their knowledge in delivering effective and commercial insight with video. \nThis webinar will answer the following; \n\nWhat does best practice for video in research look like? \nHow can I get a client to invest in a video project? \nWhat tools are available to researchers besides online communities? \nHow do we make video insight commercial? \nHow can I be more innovative with video? \n\nWith a rise in remote ethnography in 20/21\, more and more respondents are available to complete online video calls and diary tasks. However\, getting clients and participants engaged and receptive to both remote and in-person video projects can bring its own challenges. \nThe Word Is Out think that there is even more scope to be innovative and creative in our work as researchers. We’re only just scratching the surface on what we can achieve using video. They want to arm fellow freelancers and small agencies with a variety of tips and best practice from their experience in the video industry to put into practice when producing their own creative insight stories. \nAbout The Word Is Out \n \nSpecialists in video-driven\, qualitative insight\, at The Word is Out we fuse our experience in market research and the video industry to deliver engaging and innovative outputs to our clients. We also work with brands and fellow researchers to offer a specialist expansion of videography to their existing team. \n \nREGISTER FOR THIS FREE WEBINAR HERE\n  \nONCE REGISTERED\, LOGIN FOR THE WEBINAR IS: \nICG Webinars \nPlease join my meeting from your computer\, tablet or smartphone.\nhttps://global.gotomeeting.com/join/145863309 \nYou can also dial in using your phone.\nUnited Kingdom: +44 20 3713 5011 \nAccess Code: 145-863-309
