Welcome back to Intellicast! Brian Peterson is joined in today's episode by Matthew Alexander to discuss mergers, people on the move, and AI. Starting the episode, the guys talk about some recent mergers and acquisitions from around the industry. First, they touch on OpinonRoute's acquisition of Jibunu and how this can impact OpinionRoute going forward. They then touch ACKWEST's purchase of Precision Sample. Next, the guys discuss some moves people in the industry have made. They touch on new additions at Morning Consult and Symmetric Sample. They hit on WIRe's executive structure changes and Ryan Barry departing Zappi. In the last segment, the guys touch on a few news stories around AI, specifically synthetic data. First, they discuss the new solution from PureSpectrum, called Training Data, and how that can impact synthetic data and improve existing models. This led to a more philosophical discussion triggered by comments from a panel at the MRS AI conference. Matthew breaks it down to show how biases impact not just synthetic data but survey data as well. He also touches on how EMI addresses that bias. Thanks for listening!

Today we're taking a no BS look at the world of customer insights, leadership and business visioning with the President of software company Zappi, the ever-passionate and transparent leader, Ryan Barry.Having led Zappi for over four years, Ryan shares his no holds barred take on company leadership and people leadership, and it's all anchored on authenticity. Years ago, Ryan says, he was called out by his wife on having a ‘work voice' and realized he shouldn't be wearing 50 different masks depending on who he's speaking with. He says this new transparent approach to dealing with people and stakeholders alike makes his life easier, and ensures his leadership style is more human. Ryan is also committed to communication, or even over-communication, dropping casual and informal voice messages and videos as news evolves in his company regularly, to ensure no one has to second guess what is happening, and that business updates are intentional and impactful. To negate a possible consequence of this – dominance and over-assertion - Ryan says he leans into curiosity, asking questions openly on things he is not knowledgeable about and deferring to the experts. “Your job sometimes is just to listen,” he says.Jo and Ryan also discuss the future of the workplace, particularly as more remote, flexible and virtual working styles are implemented, and spontaneous moments to ‘break bread with people' in a physical office become fewer. Nearly 70% of Ryan's staff are on the other side of the planet to him. He's cognizant of the necessity to build and nurture relationships and believes that cannot be replaced by physically being in the same place together. Trust, collaboration and understanding are best built in real life, Ryan says, as are new ideas generated from sporadic and unplanned moments ‘bumping into' people. Whatever new technological automation and outsourcing the future holds for the workplace, this ability to connect, human to human, won't be replaced.Holding a personal brand of his own, supported by his podcast Inside Insights and newsletter Ryan's Rants, Ryan regularly shares reflections on the industry he operates in and where customer strategies go wrong. More and more companies are driven by two polarized objectives: short term earnings vs long term goals, awards and accolades vs ads that actually drive sales, political stances vs internal policies. Ryan highlights the importance of being frank with yourself on why business decisions are made, of taking input from your staff (whether you like what they say or not), of building principles that create consistency for future scenarios, and of ensuring your business actions match what you say. “People's bullshit meter is way up”, and Ryan says that's a good thing. >>>To look outside, Ryan goes outside to get lost in nature and mountains, usually with his dog. Getting out from the physical reality he's surrounded by allows him to tap into another level of ideas in his subconscious.>>>Ryan Barry oversees Zappi's global business operation leading the companies growth and impact internally and externally and serves as a member of the firm's executive leadership team. Prior to Zappi, Ryan worked for GMI, an online survey solution provider which was eventually acquired by Kantar and also started a dog care company which was sold in 2015 and a non profit aimed at raising money for less fortunate children.In addition to his work at Zappi, Ryan serves on Michigan State's advisory board for their MR program. Ryan lives outside of Boston with his wife, two sons, daughter and his two hound dogs and loves the great outdoors and Boston sports.Follow Ryan on LinkedInSubscribe to

Someday, Ryan's goal is to have his signature hot dog, the Willie Dog, as not only a must-try Omaha food, but also mentioned among America's iconic dogs like the Chicago dog and New York coney. That might sound ambitious, but considering how far this business has come in a few years, don't bet against him. From its humble beginnings as a food cart, Willie Dogs just continues to grow.

Hyper-local, this is a word that I heard on National Hot Dog Day back in 2022 and that term was heard from the voice of Ryan Barry of Willie Dogs. At that time Wille Dogs was a cart/popup concept focusing on creating a hot dog to represent Omaha. Since that time Ryan has gone to culinary school, kept the cart going, and more recently opened a brick and mortar location. He has continued to focus on using local ingredients to make his food embracing his concept of hyperlocal and love for his city of Omaha and he's on our show!

Hi, I'm Priscilla McKinney, CEO and Momma Bird here at Little Bird Marketing and I'm a St. Patrick's Day birthday! Everyone wants to party on my birthday and have fun. I am a fun person - very outgoing and funny (if you agree, please call one of my kids and let them know). But people often think I am a people person. I'm really not. I'm a “my kind of people” person. What I mean by that is I like people who are overtly helpful, bring energy into the room, give without thinking of getting and don't take themselves too seriously. I love this industry and have met so many colleagues who have become friends - like really good friends. I had a lot of friends before I got into this industry, but I made room for more. Do you see how much fun I'm having and want to be a part of it? Good news! In this episode I scrap the rules, call my bestie, Sarah Kotva and gossip about people in the industry. It's all good and you'll have a great time. So grab a glass of wine with us and let us introduce you to people you HAVE TO KNOW in market research. Then, go forth and connect with them online. You'll laugh, you'll cry, and you'll be in on all the jokes! Let's do this!

Welcome to another interesting and informative episode of Data Gurus! Sima is excited to bring you the second part of the live discussion between herself and four other industry leaders that took place earlier this year at SampleCon. This episode might give those who did not make it to SampleCon this year an idea of what the conference was like, and hopefully bring a fresh perspective to those who were there. You will hear Sima lead an informal and unscripted discussion with Ryan Barry, Steve Schlesinger, Katie Gross, and Armen Adjemian. They share their opinions on various topics and discuss their concerns for the industry. Ryan Barry is the President at Zappi. He oversees their commercial operations, operations, and product and engineering groups. Steve Schlesinger is the CEO of Schlesinger Group. He focuses on strategy, acquisitions, and developing the business for the future. Armen Adjemian is a co-founder and CEO of DISQO. He is involved with strategy and marketing. Katie Gross is Chief Customer Officer at Suzy. She oversees sales, customer success, and their Full Service Center of Excellence team. Sima Vasa is a co-founder of Paradigm Sample and CEO of Infinity Squared Ventures. She also does investment banking for Oberon Securities. What concerns Steve? Companies can grow from a startup to great success a lot faster now. So Steve worries about the companies that will grow significantly in a short period and represent large amounts of revenue in three to five years. He is concerned about his blind spots and the things he doesn't know. What Katie worries about Katie worries about Ted Talks, Twitter, and people who take time and attention from respondents. Creating better value DISQO's main growth constraint is the member or user. So they think about how the changes that occur in their users' lives will affect their attention span. They are always thinking of ways to create better value for their users, and they always gravitate to the member experience because that drives growth. The data war Ryan worries about who will win the data war inside big businesses. Because 67% of the media spend of most companies is done programmatically now. Also, most consumer insights departments are still analog and disconnected from a lot of performance optimization. Connecting what people do with what they say Ryan feels that if researchers could connect what people do with what they say, they only will need to ask them two questions. However, people in the industry are not thinking about that. So he worries about what insights departments will look like five years from now. Doing things differently According to earnings reports, many CEOs are responsible for the idea of doing things differently. Ryan feels that much of the drive toward transformation is happening at the level of the CMO and Chief Growth Officer. Change within traditional insights organizations Sima believes the need to transform and move faster has driven much of the change within traditional insights organizations. From the top down Katie thinks some companies have done a great job of starting from the top down and enabling everyone. The hardest thing Armen feels that selling to insights teams over time is the hardest thing because it is difficult to prove ROI from that spend. Fintech Something interesting about fintech, compared with a more traditional CPG, is that the number of buyers within fintech groups is many times more than the number of buyers within more traditional insights departments. Creators Ryan believes that creators are underserved in terms of data. They are the future and need data to inspire them and help them make better decisions. He views insights people as creators because they are part of the process. The digital market Ryan thinks that the digital market is becoming a lot bigger. Global shifts The world is becoming more data-driven.

Welcome to another interesting and informative episode of Data Gurus! Sima is excited to bring you part of a live discussion between herself and four other industry leaders that took place earlier this year, at SampleCon. For those who did not get to SampleCon this year, this episode will give you an idea of what it was like. You will hear Sima lead an informal and unscripted discussion with Ryan Barry, Steve Schlesinger, Katie Gross, and Armen Adjemian. They share their strong opinions on various topics, including leadership, talent management, company culture, respondent experience, and more. Ryan Barry is the President at Zappi. He oversees their commercial operations, operations, and product and engineering groups. Steve Schlesinger is the CEO of Schlesinger Group. He focuses on strategy, acquisitions, and developing the business for the future. Armen Adjemian is a co-founder and CEO of DISQO. He is involved with strategy and marketing Katie Gross is Chief Customer Officer at Suzy. She oversees sales, customer success, and their Full Service Center of Excellence team. Sima Vasa is a co-founder of Paradigm Sample and CEO of Infinity Squared Ventures. She also does investment banking for Oberon Securities. Talent Everyone is trying to figure out how to acquire, hire, and retain talent. Even though there are currently many conversations about technology and automation, Steve feels that it is the talent that generates the value of the business. So people have to be more creative than ever to attract people into their businesses. His company regularly looks at acquisitions as a way to get talent. Katie joined Suzy almost two years ago. Hiring has been nearly a full-time job for her because Suzy needs people with experience and people with different points of view. Working from home It is difficult for parents to raise their children and work. Working from home has been helpful for females in the workplace and brought more balance to many families with working parents. The best team DISQO has been very people-centric across time because Armen believes that whoever has the best team in the long term will win. Remote hiring has allowed them to hire faster. Doubling their staff DISQO doubled its staff by bringing in more than 200 people last year. It was extremely challenging to do in the current environment. Investments Last year, Sima saw a lot of activity in what was said to be a frothy market. Now, there appears to be more scrutiny and caution around investments. Expectations also seem to be more realistic. Debt financing Zappi has gained much traction from debt financing over the last several years. Ryan believes that debt financing is a useful vehicle for growing companies. High salaries Salaries are costing a lot more. That could become a problem if the numbers do not get met. Performance At the end of the day, investment is about performance. Culture It can be difficult for a company to retain its culture in tough times. It helps to have a good environment, hire great people, and treat them like adults. Having open conversations about what the company is going through is also vital. Adapting and changing The culture has to adapt and change as a company grows. Complex culture Steve has a culture of 20 companies amalgamated together. Each company came in with its culture, so the current culture is a complex combination of those. Culture and people Culture and people are the most important criteria for a company. Shared values Shared values are vital for a cultural fit within a company. Respondent experience Market researchers should not support 45-minute conjoint surveys any longer because most people only have a seven-minute attention span. Representative sample The industry has defined representative sample as age, gender, and income. That, and some other industry basics, need to change. A challenge

Merrill Dubrow is a thoughtful leader, podcast host, blogger, sought after keynote speaker and CEO of M/A/R/C Research. At the first sign of the Coronavirus making an impact on American business, Merrill moved quickly to spearhead a leadership roundtable and has been listening as much as leading, giving voice to many within the MR industry to help us all face what he refers to as this "opportunity to lead." He's moving through a hard time to lead 65 employees with class and a total commitment to strong and frequent communications.  He openly discusses the hardships of leading and acknowledges his need to be mindful of his own needs while balancing the needs of others. While he reaches out to others for personal check-ins with his team he's been trying to keep things light while never mixing words about the future. It's a tough balance Merrill is managing, but his tenacity to keep leading with empathy is encouraging and inspiring.  In a show of vulnerability Merrill shares a personal story from his childhood that prepared him for a moment such as this. It is this kind of openness that has earned him the respect of his peers for so long.  Merrill counts some of the market research greats as personal friends including Steve Schlesinger, CEO of Schlesinger Associates, Adam Froman, CEO of Delivina, Ryan Barry, CRO of Zappi and Sarah Kotva, Vice President of Fieldwork and more.  M/A/R/C Research also has a podcast called On the Marc. Merrill interviews a wide variety of interesting people, artists, and sports experts as well as market research leaders.

Ryan Barry is the Chief Revenue Officer at Zappi. In today's episode, he sits with Sima Vasa to talk about Zappi's unique approach to innovation, how a culture of instant gratification is shaking up market research, and the exponential growth of the insights industry. “My worldview of research is it's an industry that should be growing exponentially.” - Ryan Barry Ryan Barry: A History of Zappi Zappi started four years ago when their founders realized the problem with research. People had to program surveys or wait a long time in order to gain access to potential insight. Zappi came up with a new platform that rebuilt methodologies designed to help answer specific business questions and took out all the manual process. Two and a half years ago, they merged with an analytics and data digitization company. They have since been doing research in 37 countries about the globe and some brands. Ahead of Their Time When Zappi first introduced their models, they had mixed reception. Some people thought they didn't need to move faster or had excess budget for the innovation. But the last four years has seen a massive evolution of a couple of key trends. Technology continued to disrupt everything. Mass media no longer controlled the world and people do. Marketing itself has become an extremely programmatic data-driven industry. Exponential Growth at the Present Ryan says that Zappi's growth rate would have been faster if they had started now. A new category rose in recent years. There's a bunch of other companies that are doing similar work, but there's also a need to have more advanced dialogues because the times are changing. Marketing and business are realizing that if they don't have live data in a programmatic world, there would be a problem. “We're really at an interesting crossroads as an industry. We're looking at data, people, culture, we're using all of the things to help companies grow.” - Ryan Barry Quick links to connect with Ryan Barry: Zappi LinkedIn Twitter Sima loves to hear from her listeners with input, questions, suggestions and just to connect!

I’m Jamin, and you’re listening to the Happy Market Research podcast. Today I’m joined by Ryan Barry, chief revenue officer of Zappi. Founded in 2013, Zappi partners with leading research companies like Kantar, MMR, and BuzzBack to turn their methodologies into insight products. These products are used by the likes of McDonald’s, Amazon, and Verizon. Prior to joining Zappi, Ryan worked at Lightspeed and has founded a nonprofit that engaged millennials in charity work. Ryan, thank you very much for joining us today. [00:00:30] Thank you so much, Jamin and Alexandra, for having me. It’s my pleasure. [00:00:34] Well, we’re really excited. I have been following your company closely, you know, since your launch in 2013, really since you joined in two-thousand and-I think it was fourteen. But before we get into ZappiStore and the work that’s happening there, I’d love to start with your roots, you know, background in marketing, of course, and then later you graduated with a marketing research degree, your MBA, I think, from the University of Georgia. Why did you choose marketing research? [00:01:02] It’s a good question. So I was a bit of a-I guess you’d call me a late bloomer. So I was raised by two beautiful parents who hustled to make ends meet, so, you know, that’s how I sort of came up. And early in grade school, in middle school, whatever, I was always selling something, I was always marketing something. And I didn’t know that at the time. And I also spent too much time in high school probably having fun, so when I got to college I was a bit of a-you know, what am I going to do. And I started taking these business classes. So I just loved marketing. And, you know, the plan was Madison Avenue, and I’m speaking metaphorically. I thought I was going to go work at a big ad agency and be a planner. And, anyways, right before I graduated university I got an opportunity to design a program for the Market Research Association. So this is a long time ago before the merger, all that fun stuff. And I went to the MRA New England conference, which oddly I was the president of like ten years later, and I fell in love with it. And I met some, you know, early days fairly senior employees at a company called GMI, which was founded in ’98 by Rob Monster, which eventually became Lightspeed. And I decided to join and haven’t looked back since. And I decided to join frankly, Jamin, not because of market research, but because I was able to join this sort of not-quite startup but business that was still figuring it out and at an early age I just got access to do a lot. And then the economy crashed about three weeks after I joined. So then, you know, I was right out of school doing a ton of different work that I had no business or experience doing, but the amount of learning I got in those early years was just unbelievable. And then as I started to grow I realized I work with people and I study people-what a cool place to earn a living. And so now I do consider myself part of the community. I mean, I don’t think I’d ever leave this industry. It’s-I mean,
