SUMMARY:Understanding How Using Advanced Analytics in Research Can Help Your Clients
DESCRIPTION:Have you ever wanted to know more about some of the key analytical tools used in market research? \nNew ICG-er and advanced analytics expert\, Paul Carney\, Clearcut Insights\, is running an interactive 90-minute introductory training session for the ICG on “Advanced Analytics in Research” on the 2nd May. \nThis session will be completely free of formulas and is suitable for both qualies and quanties. The focus is on understanding “what they are and how to use and talk about them”\, rather than how to do them\, so non-experts are welcome. \nIt will introduce 8 key tools & techniques\, such as Segmentation\, Conjoint and Key Driver Analysis\, with the aim of giving you more confidence in spotting opportunities for solving client issues\, key questions to ask your clients in initial conversations\, and best-practice tips along the way. \nThere will also be an opportunity to ask Paul questions and exchange experiences. \nPaul has over 25 years experience in running these techniques\, firstly while leading Research International’s Marketing Science Centre\, then as Head of Analytics at Bonamy Finch\, and now with his independent analytics consultancy\, ClearCut Insights. \nhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/carneypaul/ \nhttps://www.clearcut-insights.com/ \n \nRegister for this free training session here

SUMMARY:Webinar: Mushrooms have a branding issue
DESCRIPTION:This webinar has been generously sponsored by Indeemo \n \n  \nMushrooms are having a moment. But as the functional shroom category booms (think mushroom coffees\, teas\, powders\, supplements\, chocolates\, blends and super blends)\, what does it mean to a myco-curious audience who still associate mushrooms with grilled cheese or magic (the illegal kind)? \nIn this session\, ICG member Jess Jorgensen (Cultural Strategist and Mycophile)\, with Kim Townend (Social listening-fuelled Cultural and Social Strategist) unpack the order and chaos of functional mushrooms\, and how brands can avoid shroom boom… to bust. \nWhy attend? \n\nSubstantial global interest and investment in this fast-growing category (projected $136bn market value by 2032)\nBig brand interest in capitalising on mushrooms (e.g. in health & wellness\, food\, pet food\, beverages\, apparel\, retail\, cannabis\, beauty)\nNiche category exploding into mainstream; learnings can be applied across similar categories\nMushrooms are fun!\n\nMore about Jess here \nMore about Kim here \nRegister for this webinar here
