Evoke Research


Evoke what others miss.

A few words about how we do it

Although we are a boutique firm, EVOKE Research conducts hundreds of focus groups, dyads, triads, and one-on-one interviews every year across both Canada and the United States.

Our roster of approaches is wide, but our speciality remains anchored in qualitative research:

  • Traditional qualitative research: focus groups, dyads, in-depth interviews
  • Non-traditional qualitative research
  • Online forums and online projective
  • In-situ eye-tracking studies
  • Ethnographic  research
  • Critical social research approaches
  • Intercept and exit interviews

 

Unlocking emotional brand triggers.

Marketers love to know how brands make their customers feel; an emotional connection is critical because customers often make decisions emotionally. But experience tells us that people in focus groups will not express their feelings about a brand experience directly.

How to get at their emotions? At EVOKE, we have them “project” those emotions in other ways.


Simple truths from projective techniques.

EVOKE provides groups with unique tools to express emotions, or uncover less rational perceptions. Our proprietary approaches and projective techniques give group participants permission to express their private opinions, guarded thoughts, or even unconscious motives and attitudes. They even have a bit of fun in our groups, which are always energetic, interesting, and productive.

Projective Research 101

A man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask, and he will tell you the truth.” Oscar Wilde

Oscar may not have been thinking about projective research, just as you might not when you tell your doctor about your “friend with this little medical problem,” but the technique is the same. Click to see projective techniques in action.
