Why mobile makes sense!

You’ve got two minutes to yourself and what is the first thing so many of us think about doing? Getting out our phone to check our email, post a tweet, update a Facebook status, the list of possibilities goes on. The idea of doing nothing has disappeared almost completely.

Get behind the scenes on the Always On social media study. What surprised Tabitha Lucas, Research Director at Latitude Insights...?

I love the fact that people continue to surprise me. This particular instance was prompted by the results of a major study we have just completed about consumers and brands on social media called ‘Always On’.

Imagine driving through a downpour and coming out with a dry car. Mark Shaw produces Ultra Ever-Dry, a liquid-repellent coating that may sound mundane but makes for one astonishing demo. The superhydrophobic coating acts as a shield against pretty much any liquids.

Marcail, research manager at Latitude Insights, shows how blurring the lines between digital and bricks and mortar can be a beautiful thing.

Within the retail world, we often hear talk of online stores as distinctly different to and separate from the more traditional physical bricks and mortar stores.

A small experience results in a big question for Monica Greenwood, Research Director at Latitude Insights.

Dave Griffin, our shopper and retail specialist, recently blogged about customer service measurement (click here to read that). He cited a study based on just four ‘mystery shops’ which is clearly too few to come to any substantial conclusions about your customers’ in-store service or experience.

So, the election is official. What do you think are the big issues that will shape the election campaign and result?

"It's about conveying the impression of strong leadership, saying that she is in charge, making the big decisions, seizing the initiatives." That's Michelle Grattan's take today on Prime Minister Julia Gillard's shock election announcement: http://ow.ly/1RFXve

"Our journey is not complete until our wives, our mothers, and daughters can earn a living equal to their efforts. Our journey is not complete until our gay brothers and sisters are treated like anyone else under the law – for if we are truly created equal, then surely the love we commit to one another must be equal as well." -President Barack Obama

It's not just what you ask, it's how you ask it.
In the latest Latitude Insight's blog Victoria Parr raises some interesting considerations for social research.

At the last AMSRS conference I presented a paper on the research to develop the design of plain packaging for to***co products (yes, that colour…… Pantone 448C). During the questions that followed, an audience member highlighted that even though the emphasis of the conference had been on new methodo...

New Year's Resolution for moi: "Stay in Open Mode"

"We all operate in two contrasting modes, which might be called open and closed. The open mode is more relaxed, more receptive, more exploratory, more democratic, more playful and more humorous. The closed mode is the tighter, more rigid, more hierarchical, more tunnel-visioned. Most people, unfortunately spend most of their time in the closed mode. Not that the closed mode cannot be helpful. If you are leaping a ravine, the moment of takeoff is a bad time for considering alternative strategies. When you charge the enemy machine-gun post, don't waste energy trying to see the funny side of it. Do it in the "closed" mode. But the moment the action is over, try to return to the "open" mode—to open your mind again to all the feedback from our action that enables us to tell whether the action has been successful, or whether further action is need to improve on what we have done. In other words, we must return to the open mode, because in that mode we are the most aware, most receptive, most creative, and therefore at our most intelligent."
