Our Approach

The modern qualitative research professional can no longer rely on a stock trade of focus groups and in-depth interviews to deliver fresh and credible insight. Industry now demands hybrid qualitative experts that harness a range of skills, experience and knowledge across disciplines and platforms.

Design-inspired techniques, video storytelling, online forums, netnography, semiotic analysis, in combination with traditional qualitative approaches, are now the cost-of-entry into the field.

At RealEthno we cover all qualitative bases by adapting new approaches into our repertoire, but also maintaining traditional approaches and philosophies.

  • Our core conviction is the idea of empathetic engagement with users and consumers leading to co-insight and understanding.
  • Our background in participatory research methods enables us to develop a deep rapport with people in any setting, be it group room, real world or online.
  • In doing so, we achieve deeper truths in relation to perceptions, attitudes and lived experiences.
