Experience By Respondent Types
Client Review
"During my time at WonderGroup, Barbara was a preferred moderator for many reasons: her ability to talk with a variety of people, ages, and on any topic; the creativity and rigorous thinking she brought to each assignment; her ability to bring new light and fresh perspective on established brands looking for growth. She doesn't miss a detail, keeps the clients honest to the consumers' interests, and can still keep the big picture in view."
