Read MoreBrand Values: Do Consumers Really Care?
Building a brand and establishing how it functions and communicates in the world is hugely important to any business. Companies attempt to align their brand with their target audience to, at the very least, appear authentic to the communities they serve and ultimately drive more sales of their product or service.

Read MoreAre You Playing with a Full Deck?
Last month we looked at a LOT of numbers. Lots and lots of data. And sure, the ‘numbers’ are necessary to allocate resources, run statistical analysis, determine trends and their significance and more. But relying on quantitative methods and data alone can leave a lot on the table. This month’s In the kNOW discusses why including qualitative…

But none of us personally know a vaccinated person who’s become seriously, hospital, ill. We…
Read MoreThe Omicron Factor: Stats on Willingness to Attend In-Person Events vs. Online and Hybrid
Events in Q1 2022 are more of a mixed bag than a trick-or-treater gets in a neighborhood featuring vegans, new age health nuts and that one awesome house that hands out the full-sized Snickers bars. No one is really tracking event statistics at the macro level, but anecdotally we had most of the Hollywood awards…

With the Omicron variant pushing COVID numbers far beyond last winter’s peak, we wanted to get fresh data on how coronavirus-weary people were feeling in the face of this new surge.
