Today’s rapidly moving and converging IT, electronics, software, communications, networking and video markets require firms to take a holistic approach in gathering market information, transforming it into strategies, and executing on those strategies. The Phoenix Converged Technology team specializes in providing insight into perceptions of brands, products, and service packages in the rapidly changing technology landscape. Research services cover both consumer and business decision-makers in domestic and global markets.

Custom Research

The Converged Technology team works with clients to develop custom studies with two key objectives—to deliver actionable marketing programs and to impact the bottom line. The results of each study reveal key segments to target as well as the drivers that motivate consumers and differentiate the client’s brand from competitors.
