“Colette, it was a pleasure working with you on. You were a huge help in developing our marketing strategy and identifying key areas we could improve on. What is amazing is that we are already seeing a benefit through increased sales and a shorter sales cycle. Our expected success in 2018 is based on the help you have provided. So again, thank you!”
Pat King, Founder & CEO of One Look Systems www.onelooksystems.com
“BiznetCork Skillnet, the training network based in Cork Chamber, worked with the team at Real Insights in 2016 & 2017 to comprehensively review the training market in Cork to help us better understand our market proposition. The work done by Colette and the team at Real Insights was first class and completely met our requirements. I would have no hesitation in recommending Colette and Real Insights for their professionalism, effectiveness, efficiency and ability to deliver.”
Aoife Dunne, Business School Manager, Cork Chamber Business School https://www.corkchamber.ie/upskilling-you
“Real Insights has carried out a number of projects for me both in my current role with AVIS and also in previous roles I had. Her insights and ability to analyse data in a way that really pushes you to get into the customers’ mind and question your offering, is unique. These insights were fundamental in helping us to ensure our business continues to deliver for our customers. Colette is never afraid to question assumptions and that is invaluable.”
Mandy Young, Head of Sales & Marketing, AVIS Ireland www.avis.ie
“CBRE Ireland recently used Real Insights to conduct a confidential bespoke piece of research on our behalf. To say that we were pleased with the service provided by Colette and her team is an understatement. Real Insights exceeded all of our expectations and completed the project for us in a timely and professional manner. We would have no hesitation in recommending Real Insights to others.”
Marie Hunt, Executive Director, Head of Research, CBRE Ireland and Member of CBRE’s EMEA Research Board www.cbre.ie
“We wanted to re-evalaute our position within the Irish marketplace & look at opportunities for growth. Colette & Roisin updated our business plan & also produced a Strategy for Growth for us to help us develop & grow our business over the next 3-5 years. We loved their practical no-nonsense approach to the project & their commercial focus. It wasn’t just about numbers or a plan, they helped us take a critical look at the business, they challenged us & helped us focus on growth & opportunities for the business. It was really great having an independent view of our world & have their commercial expertise to guide us along the journey.”
Colin Byrne, Owner & Creative Director, TOTEM Design www.totem.ie
“The team from the Tyndall National Institute hold the contribution of Real Insights toward the commercialisation of our project idea in high esteem. Their validation and feasibility study of our medical device concept for neurostimulation shed a revealing light on our project for commercialization purposes. We found their recommended approach to engage with specialists in the clinical field to be extremely valuable. It gave us excellent first-hand information on the potential use of our idea in the real market, showing its advantages and disadvantages in comparison with existing treatments for the medical disorder that our technology tackles.”
Patricia Vazquez, Researcher, Tyndall National Institute www.tyndall.ie
“Real Insights looked deep into our organisation and were able to deliver a fresh perspective and direction on which to build our future strategies upon. Working with a team who understands retail and the reality of day-to-day business was both refreshing and essential in getting buy-in from our shareholders. We would have no hesitation in recommending them to others looking for guidance on how to grow and scale their business.”
Tony Murphy, General Manager, Expert Electrical Ireland www.expert.ie
“Real Insights is just that, it has consistently delivered thought provoking insights which have been strategic and action oriented helping us to enhance our understanding of our customers and our business. We look forward to continuing this working relationship with Colette and her team in the future.”
Ray Kelly, Marketing Director, Musgrave Retail Partners Ireland Ltd www.musgrave.ie
“We have used Real Insights on a number of occasions and it never fails to deliver thought provoking, challenging and above all actionable insights. The quality of service provided is second to none with particular attention given to tailoring the approach to meet our specific needs. We would have no hesitation in recommending Colette and her team to others.”
Eileen Slattery, Marketing Director, Waterford Stanley www.waterfordstanley.ie
“I am totally impressed with Colette. The first time we worked together I could not believe the depth of her working knowledge, focus, and tenacity. She doesn’t drop a topic until she has squeezed every drop of juice from it. At the same time, she gives no hint of what direction the discussion could go. So what I got was raw fact as the interviewee saw it. The second set of research produced equally important results. I cannot recommend Colette highly enough and wish her the very best if she takes the offer from Guantanamo Bay!?!”
Stephen Pearce, the artistic talent behind the name www.stephenpearce.com
“Having worked with Real Insights on a number of occasions now I would have no hesitation in recommending Colette and her team to organisations seeking the expertise of a market research company, one which has been able to clearly understand very differing briefs and has brought a flexible and practical approach to each of these, the outputs of which have assisted each of the projects in question to exceed expectations.”
Sean O’Sullivan, Head of Enterprise, Local Enterprise Office, South Cork www.localenterprise.ie/SouthCork/
“Using Real Insights gave us exactly that – A Real Insight into the customers experience when dealing with FreeFlow. The professional approach adopted by Real Insights resonated through-out the process and we will now be adopting this process as part of our commitment to ongoing quality improvement.”
Alan Scroope, CEO & Founder www.freeflow.com
“We used Real Insights to complete a detailed analysis on why our customers shop with us and also to determine which areas we needed to improve on. We were extremely happy with the professional approach that was taken, the quality of the research findings and the way they were presented. We would have no hesitation in recommending Real Insights to anyone considering market research. We are looking forward to working with Real Insights on future projects. We wish Colette the best of luck in her endeavours.”

“Colette conducted a market research project for Promed in the Medical Primary Care sector speaking with Doctors and Nurses. The work that Colette did was excellent, the project was a great success for Promed and has led to Promed launching a completely new and differentiated package for Primary Care medical practices called Promed Advance.”
