Best Of Season 3 - Part 2

We’re back with Part 2 of the Best of Intellicast 2020! In this episode, Brian and Brian revisit interviews with Damon Jones of Burke and Shannon Frazier of Directions Research. [0:01:30- 0:43:35] In Damon’s interview, Brian and Damon discuss their involvement in the Great Lakes Chapter of the Insights Association and how Damon started at the Insights Association as well as the various roles he has held over the past 18 years within the organization. Brian and Damon are also members of the Diversity and Education Committee and talk about the importance of diversity within market research. It’s a topic they’re both truly passionate about! In the second half of the interview, they chat about Cincinnati sports! [0:44:35- 1:38:50] Shannon’s interview starts with a discussion of SampleCon, which she, Brian, and Mary attended the previous week. They talk about some of the key themes of the conference including data quality, blockchain, and the state of the industry. This is a great conversation because you get perspectives of the conferences from a sample supplier and buyer as well as long-time SampleCon attendees and a first-time attendee. It was also one of the last in-person conferences of the year! In the final 15 minutes of the interview, Shannon and Mary discuss their shared love for Publix. Part 2 of the “Best of Intellicast 2020” series is an awesome recap of some of the major themes of the market research industry this year from diversity and inclusion to data quality.
